GradePower Learning

Specialties

GradePower uses cognitive learning techniques to help children develop more effective ways of thinking, concentrating, listening and remembering. Our cognitive approach to learning, designed by educational experts, is based on proven scientific research into how children actually learn. Learning is not about memorizing facts. Its about knowing, really understanding, how to integrate and retain new information. GradePower goes beyond tutoring, to help ignite your childs interest in learning, not just for one school year, but for a lifetime.

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.
