Yes, SAT® and ACT® prep is available at our Nocatee center. It starts with a diagnostic assessment, then small-group instruction with two or three students. For current scheduling, test-date planning, and availability, contact the center directly rather than relying on a general schedule.

A short, no-obligation conversation about your child, your goals, and your schedule. If it makes sense to go further, we set up a Dynamic Assessment, then build a written, individualized plan around what it finds. The plan is yours to keep either way.

It is a one-on-one assessment tailored to your child's age and level, and it takes about 60 to 90 minutes. It shows us how your child learns: strengths, learning gaps, thinking skills, and learning style. You receive a written breakdown of strengths and gaps that is yours to keep whether or not you enroll.

Our cognitive learning approach

No. We only want to see where things stand today. Bring your child, and a recent report card or an IEP or 504 plan if you have one (helpful but not required). Please arrive 5 to 10 minutes early. Most students say it was easier than they expected.

No. The initial consultation and the Dynamic Assessment are free. Fees are set by each center and can change over time, so please confirm when you call.

We build a plan around what the assessment found for your child, not a fixed curriculum everyone follows. We set up a regular schedule after the first few sessions, and you hear from us regularly so you are not waiting for report cards to learn how it is going.

It depends on the program and your child's goals. Many families start with one or two sessions a week, and most students end up attending tutoring two to four times a week. We customize the schedule for each child.

Look for a real assessment before any plan is made, a consistent tutor for your child, clear pricing with no long-term contract, and recent reviews from local families. We offer all four, and we are happy to talk through your options even if you decide to go elsewhere.

After-school tutoring starts at $55/hr, SAT®/ACT® test prep starts at $65/hr, and Day Academy starts at $750/mo. Your plan is built around how much support your child needs, so we walk through real numbers with you directly.

See the full pricing page

There is no long-term lock-in contract. Everything is month-to-month, with no minimum hours, and we schedule classes as you request them. We do ask for 30 days' written notice for breaks and exits so we can plan schedules and so you are not charged for unused classes.

Billing is monthly. Your card is charged on the 1st for that month's scheduled classes, and we only charge for scheduled tutoring time. Students who arrive early to do homework are not charged for that time.

Yes. We can set up weekly payments by dividing your monthly invoice by four and scheduling payments on the first four Fridays of the month. Payments should be received within 60 days of the class date.

Same-day callouts are fine: let us know by noon for afternoon classes, or by 8 PM for morning classes, and we will reschedule without penalty. Sessions can also shift week to week around sports, travel, and exams.

We offer special pricing for Sibling, Military, First Responder, and Teachers, and discounts for siblings and families with more than one child enrolled. Ask about them when you schedule your consultation.

Yes. We are a direct-pay provider for the New Worlds Reading, Unique Abilities, and Personalized Education Plan (homeschooling) Step Up for Students scholarships. Give us your child's SUFS ID and we apply the funds you authorize through your EMA toward your bill.

All subjects, kindergarten through 12th grade. Reading and writing support runs from phonics and fluency through comprehension, essays, and ELA. Math runs from elementary math through algebra, geometry, and calculus, including word problems and common-core concepts.

After-school tutoring

Yes. Our Little Readers and R.E.A.D Elite programs focus on phonics, building confidence, and developing a lasting love of reading.

Reading and writing tutoring

Families reach out to us for help with executive function, homework organization, ADHD-related challenges, and learning differences. We use compassionate, structured strategies built around how your child learns. Call us and we will talk through what your child needs.

It depends on your child's starting point, goals, and attendance. In our experience, students typically need at least 40 hours of work to remediate a single grade level in one subject. We hold regular progress update meetings, and you can also check the schedule, documents, and progress updates in the caregiver portal.

For SAT® and ACT® prep, yes: you pay for the first 30 classes, and if you have not reached the score you want after that, additional classes are free. For tutoring, we cannot promise a specific grade for any student, because every child starts in a different place. What we do promise is that the plan is built on what the assessment found, and that we will tell you honestly if it is not working.

Yes, but homework is not the goal. Our cognitive learning approach builds how a student thinks, organizes, and solves problems, so they can do the homework on their own. Students can also arrive early and work on homework at no charge.

Yes. SAT® and ACT® test prep starts at $65/hr. Instruction is in person with local teachers, and every student gets a plan built around their goals and test date.

SAT® prep

You pay for the first 30 classes of our SAT® or ACT® test prep. If you have not reached the score you want after those 30 classes, every additional class you need is free. You decide what the right score is for your student. We reserve the right to reasonably schedule the free classes around our availability.

The SAT® covers Reading, Writing, and Math. The ACT® covers English, Math, Reading, Science, and the optional Writing section. Each plan starts with a diagnostic to find baseline scores and skill gaps, then adds weekly goals, targeted practice, and coaching on timing, pacing, and how to approach each question.

ACT® prep

Early. We want students to start well ahead of the test so they are best prepared. If you already know the test date, tell us whether it is the SAT® or ACT® and we will pace the plan around it. If you have not picked a date yet, there is no need to rush that decision.

Day Academy is a blend between a pod school and private tutoring for homeschooling families. Groups are kept to 5 students per teacher, and classes run 12 hours a week following the local public school calendar. Day Academy starts at $750/mo.

Day Academy

We handle all reading, writing, and math instruction, maintain your child's portfolio, and complete end-of-year testing with one of our certified teachers. Each student has an individualized learning plan.

Yes. We are a direct-pay provider for the Personalized Education Plan (homeschooling) Step Up for Students scholarship. Give us your child's SUFS ID and we apply the funds you authorize through your EMA toward your bill.

Cognitive learning is active, constructive, and long-lasting. Instead of memorizing, students learn to make connections, reflect on the material, and apply it to new problems. That builds comprehension, memory, and problem-solving skills that carry over to every subject.

Read about our approach

Homework help focuses on tonight's assignment. GradePower Learning builds how a student thinks, focuses, and solves problems, using Interactive Coaching, where tutors make sure your child understands the path to the answer, not just the answer. Every student has an individualized plan, and the same tutor works with them from session to session.

The same familiar tutor, session after session. Our tutors are fully trained in the GradePower Learning system and have post-secondary education, and many are also trained in public or private education. You are welcome to meet the team or visit the center before deciding anything.

Tell us. We would rather adjust the plan than have you stay in something that is not helping. There is no long-term contract, and breaks or exits need 30 days' written notice.

We use AI internally to help personalize learning, and AI-generated content is always reviewed by a teacher or by you before it reaches your child. We use student data only internally, with caregivers you authorize, and with your child's classroom teacher when you give permission. You can opt out by contacting us.

AI and student data policy

Please let us know about any allergies, health concerns, and pickup or drop-off authorizations. If you do not want your child in any photos we share, tell us and we will accommodate that.
