We are using him for ACT prep and can already see the confidence in my son's test taking during ACT practice tests. I know by the time the ACT is taken he will have the confidence to do well. We received our son's ACT test results today and because of all the work James did to help my son, he increased his ACT score from a 23 on the practice ACT to a 27 on the actual ACT.
