Description

Specialties

GradePower Learning goes beyond tutoring to help ignite your child’s interest in learning not just for one school year, but for a lifetime. Our approach is based on years of research into education and methods of teaching. We use cognitive learning techniques to help children develop more effective ways of thinking, concentrating, listening, and remembering. Each program begins with a Dynamic Assessment, our own combination of internationally recognized assessment tools, to help us better understand the individual characteristics of every child we teach. Contact us today to get started!

History

Established in 1984.

GradePower Learning is the U.S. name for Oxford Learning, which opened in London, Ontario in 1984. The founder, Dr. Nick Whitehead, identified a need among many families for a supplement to school that doesn’t just drill information, but actually strengthens their critical thinking, so they can learn more easily and achieve their full potential in all subjects — not just reading or writing or math. He developed Oxford’s curriculum to both train the most important thinking skills, and improve reading, writing, math, and study skills. For twenty-​nine years, Oxford Learning in Canada, and now GradePower Learning in the U.S., have been helping children become independent thinkers and active learners.
