The problem is bright teens not doing as well as they could in school. Even worse, they don't think they can do any better, leaving them discouraged and defensive.

We parents try everything from promising rewards to continuous monitoring without much success. Sometimes it seems our children don't know the value of education or just don't care.

The solution is learning how to learn. Armed with study and self-management skills, your teen will be able to and want to take responsibility for his or her education--managing time, overcoming procrastination, mastering courses, and getting great grades. Then success starts a self-sustaining spiral of motivation and academic self-confidence.

Parents and Teens Say...

“Yes, I really enjoyed this course because it taught skills that I will use for the rest of my life. I also liked the layout because it was very relaxed and I was able to move at my own pace. It was much more enjoyable than I thought it was going to be.” C.M. (16 years old)

“Really significant change with lasting positive effects that exceeded our expectations. Miraculous changes. Since the program, Jason has been consistently successful. It was truly money well spent.” R.B., Fullerton, CA

How It Works

Power Learner's programis a proven and innovative mix of one-on-one coaching and learning experiences.

Students log into our Online Learning Center, where they receive individual coaching as they practice and master study skills and self-management. They move through the course at their own pace -- most master it in about 30 hours over a period of 4 to 6 weeks.

Throughout their time in the Online Learning Center, each student has continous voice and screen sharing connection to a tutor. The tutor provides guidance, instruction and encouragement.

Practice to Mastery.....more

The key to better learning and retention is practicing to mastery. That’s pretty much the only way to master anything: practice, practice, practice.

At Power Learners, teens learn the right kind of practice for each of the major types of courses (English, foreign language, science, math, and social studies). Just as importantly, they discover through personal experience that practice really works! The result is better grades, increased motivation, improved self-confidence, and happier relationships with parents, teachers, and peers

Material you've mastered stays with you and becomes a foundation of knowledge that enables you to learn more easily and quickly in the future.

Think of it this way: if you're solid on first grade addition, it's easier to learn subtraction. If you don't know addition, subtraction is really tough. If you don't know Spanish I, Spanish II is virtually impossible. That's why so many teens struggle. They start falling a little behind in a class. That makes it more difficult to do the next assignment and much more difficult to prepare for tests. If you’ve ever fallen behind in a class, you know exactly how bad that feels

Work Smarter -- Not Harder.....more

Generally, teens believe that the only way to do better in school is to devote countless hours to homework. What's more, because they’ve lost confidence in themselves as learners, they are not sure that the increased effort will make any difference in their results. With that mindset it’s no wonder so many teenagers are under performing.

In our Power Learners program, teens discover that they don't necessarily have to work harder, at least not for very long. They just need to work smarter, using high-impact study skills that enable them climb their own learning curves in just a few months of extra effort.

The result? LESS time studying and BETTER grades! Who wouldn't be motivated by that?
