Discover School Success This Year with              GradePower Learning!

Using the science of cognitive learning, GradePower Learning creates customized learning programs that help students meet their learning goals this year.

From Pre-K to College Readiness, we focus on understanding your child and providing the help and support they need to be successful.

We offer:

  • A comfortable environment for asking questions and learning. We pride ourselves on providing a space where students can learn at their own speed.
  • A wide range of subject areas — from math to English, we cover it all.
  • An emphasis on study and organizational skills to improve a student's efficiency inside and outside the classroom.
  • Support and help from our degreed instructors and educators.

College Ready

How can I prepare my child for college? 

We are now offering a program to help your high school 10th, 11th, and 12th-grade students become college-ready! Initial assessments will determine college and ACT or SAT readiness and your child's academic levels in major subject areas, including math, reading comprehension, grammar, vocabulary, and study skills. 

To begin, we schedule the ACT or SAT Diagnostic Assessment and our Academic and Cognitive assessments/benchmark tests to identify strengths and weaknesses, target gaps, and optimize individual learning. 

Then we focus on filling in academic gaps and on developing success strategies for high school and college. Using our curriculum and starting where the student needs to start, we provide individual instruction to prep for the ACT or SAT and strengthen math, grammar, vocabulary, writing, test-taking strategies, and study skills. And we help your child identify career interests and college majors. 

We schedule 1.5-hour long sessions to allow time for individual instruction, questions, timed practice tests, and individualized coaching. 

Our goal is to provide your child with academic knowledge, test-taking strategies, and study skills needed for college success!

GradePower Learning is a Smarter Summer!

Whether your child needs to catch up or get ahead this summer, GradePower Learning can help!

If there's one thing that you can do to help your children get better grades, it's to make certain they are learning this summer. Instead of losing academic ground, kids can actually get ready for the next grade and get a head start on the school year.

Students who continue to learn over the summer have an academic advantage. They keep learning, retain math, and gain language skills! Our individually customized programs ensure each student gets exactly the right attention in exactly the right area.

Our summer programs maintain learning momentum and prevent summer learning loss while reteaching missed concepts. At GradePower Learning we teach children how to learn rather than merely get good grades. We develop critical thinking, problem-solving skills, self-confidence, and independence to prepare for the next school year and beyond! Visit www.gradepowerlearning.com and call Greystone (205-980-5745) to register today! 

All students need GradePower Learning this summer!

 

Testimonials

I wanted to thank you for attending and engaging in Ava’s IEP meeting a couple of weeks ago. We realize how important it is to have a strong team when it comes to special education, and we appreciate you partnering with us on Ava’s behalf. Morgan and I have been very pleased with all Ava has accomplished since beginning GradePower Learning. Although we know she is still catching up, we are very relieved to have found a program that is helping her achieve real results. I appreciate the proactive approach learning and preparing for tests and assignments, which seems to be the backbone of the GradePower Learning method. You are giving her the tools to effectively learn versus cramming and bracing for mediocrity or less. Our weeks are a lot less overwhelming as we implement the strategies and methods you are teaching Ava. I feel like we are managing school assignments and test into our lives instead of the dread and disruption of the night before information whipping to pray we suffered enough to get an average grade. We are seeing independence and organization developed from GradePower Learning running over into all aspects of Ava’s life – that is HUGE for us. Most importantly, she is finding confidence through academic success that she desperately needed. She loves going to GradePower Learning and is upset when we have to reschedule. I want you and your staff to know what a great job you are doing with Ava, and that our family is very thankful for all you do! Now if you would just move to Homewood, my life would be complete.

Laura Berry - Homewood

"His confidence has already improved just in the few weeks he's been at GradePower Learning. The encouraging, devoted staff has made a huge impact on his attitude toward learning as well. Even the kids that go there have a special bond. I love this place! :)"

Heather Brook Soto - Oak Mountain

"Very nurturing and supportive environment! The staff works diligently on assessing the needs of the individual while providing the tools to attain positive and successful learning techniques. GradePower Learning is awesome! 5 stars!"

Shannon S. - Briarwood

Both of my sons, Nickolas and James - attended GradePower Learning at Lee Branch for a little over a year, one focusing more on Math and one more in Reading. Could say nothing but good things about the entire staff from the way they worked with our schedules to the personal attention and care they gave to my children. I feel that both of my children benefitted from and improved their academic skills with the help of GradePower Learning! I would highly recommend it to any family who would like to help their children succeed!

Stephanie Gifford - Our Lady of the Valley

"We truly believe in GradePower Learning. My high school daughter is doing much better after spending part of her summer there. My kids will be enrolled this summer."

Heather Ferrari-Mahaffey - Oak Mountain

Our daughter got good grades before going to GradePower Learning, but she sometimes struggled to get them. One day she came home and said, "I want to go to GradePower Learning, because when they explained math in my class today made sense." Since she's been there she's been more willing to face challenging math problems, whereas before she'd get upset and give up. Her grades have improved and homework time in our house is much calmer."

Jennifer - Mt. Laurel

We have been extremely happy with GradePower Learning! Our son has had difficulties on many levels. GradePower Learning has instilled a confidence and excitement in our son that we have never seen before! We highly recommend Tony and his staff to help your child get to the next level of learning! GradePower Learning is GREAT!

Kari Harris - Coosa Valley Academy

"Thank you all so much. Bryan is doing so much better at school. He loves GradePower Learning!"

Jackie Chaviano - Oak Mountain

Our son was in third grade when we started GradePowerLearning. We used their services for 1 1/2 years and could not have been more pleased with our son's progress. They were very flexible with what he needed and very patient with him as well. His reading levels improved to his grade level and his math scores increased as well."

Traci Griffin - Mt. Laurel

My son really struggled with reading during kindergarten and into first grade, and I was worried about him falling farther behind. It was frustrating for both of us and clear that I couldn't help him. His teacher recommended a tutor and that did help him some. Initially we went this route thinking it would be cheaper than GradePower. As summer approached, I knew we needed a plan to keep working on his skills. After meeting with the staff, I realized GradePower was less expensive per hour than what I had paid the tutor. He progressed wonderfully over the next six months and gained so much confidence. Thank you GradePower!

Lindsay Knight - Mt. Laurel

Everyone at GradePower is excellent! At first, my son was very reluctant to go inside and open up, but the teachers are so friendly and encouraging, he enjoys every class. I plan to continue with GradePower for as long as I can.

Leigh Creekbaum - Mt. Laurel

"Our son went through Beyond Tutoring and through that experience his skills in reading and writing quickly soared. The program was a great experience and I highly recommend it to anyone who is struggling to help their child learn to read. Our son did advance during the school year and the program was as successful helping him further grow his reading skills. We greatly appreciate the coaches and staff at GradePower Learning!"

Elizabeth Bray - Mt. Laurel

"I just wanted to give an update on my oldest son who was at GP for about a year ending in September 2014. He has been self-sufficient with a new confidence ever since! I am so proud of his accomplishments this year and am beyond grateful for the entire staff at GradePower. My youngest son will be attending this summer at his own request saying it worked for "his bro." We are looking forward to it. Thanks GP!"

Heather Brook Soto - Oak Mountain

Our Enrollment Process

GradePower Learning will equip your child with the learning skills needed to soar! GradePower Learning helps students reach their fullest potential. Our unique learning program develops:

  • Strong academic skills and school success strategies.
  • New ways of thinking, concentrating, listening, and remembering.
  • The cognitive learning skills needed to understand schoolwork, approach challenging assignments, and earn better grades!

We’re specialists in the development of critical learning skills for school success!

  • GradePower Learning students become confident, engaged, and motivated learners.
  • Our teachers provide interactive academic coaching; students say they love having a teacher who works directly with them.
  • It’s time to stop the traditional tutoring cycle! What works is teaching your child the cognitive skills for learning, and that’s the core of the GradePower Learning system - it’s learning that lasts a lifetime!

Conveniently located on Doug Baker Blvd in Hoover's Lee Branch Shopping Center, GradePower Learning® Greystone serves students in Hoover, Vestavia, Mountain Brook, Chelsea, Leeds, Columbiana, and surrounding communities.

At GradePower Learning we approach learning differently. We focus on cognitive development, build strong academic skills in all subjects, improve reading proficiency, and encourage lifelong learning. In one-on-one and small group programs we teach students how to concentrate, plan, listen, organize, understand, and remember. GradePower Learning goes beyond tutoring by giving your student the long-term benefit of knowing how to learn.

HERE’S HOW THE GRADEPOWER LEARNING PROCESS WORKS:

THE ENROLLMENT MEETING and ASSESSMENT:

  1. The first step in getting started at GradePower Learning is to schedule an assessment and enrollment meeting. The assessment, which takes about two hours, gives us a cognitive picture of your child, identifies strengths and academic skill gaps, and points to areas for enrichment.
  2. The Dynamic Assessment may be the most enjoyable test your child has ever taken! During the assessment, we put your child at ease by explaining the various portions of the test and responding to questions in words that they can understand. The assessment uses internationally recognized tools to measure your child’s learning style, academic grade levels in key subject areas, and cognitive learning skills.
  3. While your child is being assessed, we meet with you to discuss more student information, schedule classes and enroll your student at GradePower Learning.
  4. We create a customized program just for your child; the curriculum is tailored to meet needs that were identified in the assessment and in our discussions with you. We also develop a schedule that works for you. GradePower Learning offers flexible hours to coordinate with your busy schedule.

 

FIRST CLASS AND ASSESSMENT REVIEW: 

Here at the first class session, your child starts off strong with his or her program while we sit down with you to review the assessment results. During this meeting, we also discuss the individualized learning plan that will nurture your child’s academic strengths, address weak academic skills, build confidence, and develop understanding in a way that no other tutoring plan can. Parents receive a full in-center report professionally detailing each aspect of the process; a printed copy is yours to take home.

 

ACTIVE LEARNING:

GradePower Learning provides a positive, interactive learning environment year-round.

  • Your child’s class sessions will be filled with fun, lively discussion, and a lot of celebrating. We celebrate success and also celebrate mistakes as opportunities to learn.
  • Our structured curriculum with academic coaching results in better learning, better grades, and better students for life. We have experienced, qualified, and trained teachers who guide your child to master both basic and advanced concepts that develop a love for learning.
  • We encourage excellence and teach your child school success strategies: critical thinking skills, organization, attention to detail, and more. GradePower Learning is packed with learning materials, books, and resources to help your child learn.
  • After only a few sessions, you will begin to notice a change in your child’s mood, confidence, self-esteem, and attitude toward school.

PARTNERSHIP:

Our mission is to help children achieve their highest potential.

  • In partnership with you, we develop a learning plan specifically designed for your child.
  • We regularly discuss your child’s progress at GradePower Learning and at school.
  • At GradePower Learning we also partner with you and your child’s teacher(s) and attend parent-teacher meetings at school.

All it takes to put your child on the path to success is your commitment and GradePower Learning to guide you. If you’ll provide the first, we’ll provide the second. Let’s get started!
