 Scarsdale, NY - Gemm Learning, a Westchester-based learning intervention service and the largest provider of Fast ForWord in the U.S., has announced the hire of Andrew Brainard as the director of the company’s Scarsdale learning center.
A resident of New Rochelle, Brainard was previously employed as the director of the Sylvan Learning Center in Rego Park. During his tenure with the company, Brainard oversaw center operations, center development and increased enrollment by 100% during his first four months with the company.
At Gemm Learning, Brainard says he hopes families will gain a greater love of life through learning: “I have worked for several tutoring organizations and found Gemm Learning to be an essential step, and maybe the missing step, in the development of struggling children. I joined Gemm because I believe that the innovative, science-backed technology and the progressive philosophy create an environment which allows all children to achieve their potential,” said Brainard.
As the director of the Scarsdale learning center, Brainard will oversee operations and productivity to ensure center growth and success. Outside of the center, Brainard can be found competing in national and international Brazilian Jiu Jistu tournaments. He holds a national rank in Nihon Jiu Jistu and has spent years actively training in Boxing, Muay Thia and Jeet Kune Do.
“We are excited to add Andrew to the Gemm Learning team,” said Geoff Nixon, founder, Gemm Learning. “His passion and experience will serve Scarsdale well and we anticipate great results.”
