Proven & effective

"I absolutely recommend Alex for the ACT. My son increased 5 points on his composite score! In addition, his science score improved by 7 points after just a few sessions with Alex. Alex analyzes practice tests and provides tutoring with just the right strategy for your kid. As a result, my son got accepted to his dream school. We drove four hours round-trip to get Alex's tutor sessions. The results were worth the effort! Thank you, Alex!"

"Our son improved his ACT score by 7 points into the 96th percentile which brought his scholarship opportunities up to the top tier. We couldn't be more pleased! Over the 10 week tutoring period, we witnessed our son's overall academic commitment mature, evidenced by his increased GPA and confidence in his abilities."

"Alex was excellent. You absolutely can NOT find a better tutor than Alex Pint - his calm demeanor and obvious enjoyment of his work shines through at every appt - he can help your kids with LIFE, not just TESTS. Seeing the anxiety around the ACT lift for my son was honestly just as valuable for him (and for me) as the test score improvement."

"I was impressed with the fact that Alex was able to gear the discussion to my son's abilities. His teaching style was not "one-sized fits all" and he did a great job of going through the various sections in a way that was applicable to his strengths and weaknesses. My son is very proficient in math, but not as much in English, so Alex geared his discussion to focus on those areas that needed additional work. Honestly, I found myself listening in on the discussion thinking I wish I had these tricks when I had taken the ACT! I was very impressed."

"After months of training and studying, I found myself taking the ACT for the second time and remembering Alex telling me to 'just focus on those 45 questions'. When I first met with Alex, he told me that he could see me jumping up 4-5 points and I thought he was crazy. But Alex knew my weaknesses and strengths, and he taught me how to get around the hard problems. I would recommend anyone looking to raise their score to get in touch and start studying with him because he's amazing!"

"One of the best things our daughter said about her ACT prep journey was that Alex not only very well prepared her for the ACT exam, but also made her a best test taker in general. She stated that he actually boosted her self-confidence and her testing skills (at school). Alex is the consummate professional who exceeds expectations; a teacher's teacher. You may have a moment of "why would we hire a tutor for a test?" but let me tell you, the results speak for themselves and I know for a fact my daughter's confidence in herself and her overall test taking abilities have improved so much. We are really grateful to have found Alex---he delivers & does not disappoint!"

"Alex is awesome! Very friendly and personable, and easy to learn from. Tutoring with Alex is very convenient and easy as he comes to you to fit your schedule. With one on one tutoring, you receive personalized and specific assistance on areas you need help with. Alex's proficient knowledge in the ACT helped me raise my score and become a more confident test taker."

"After having Alex help me with ACT Prep, I have already recommended him to multiple people because of how beneficial he was to the process. This test can be complex, but Alex really helped me understand and improve on my strategies to boost my score. Through all the sessions, right until test day, Alex was helping me get better."

"Alex has assisted our student in increasing his ACT score by 8 points in two months. He helped identify weaknesses and focused on those concepts to help round out our testing readiness. The one-on-one attention allowed us to use the time specifically for our needs to make sure we were addressing the appropriate subjects. We were so pleased with Alex's abilities that we used him again for our younger student and have shared his name with all of our friends. Do your student a favor and give them the opportunity to compete with the best!"

"Hope you are doing well. I wanted to let you know that Jack scored a 31 on his ACT! We were extremely pleased as this means that for every time he met with you, his score went up two points. We attribute all his success to you!"

"If you are considering tutoring, use Alex! He is very knowledgeable, kind, flexible, communicative, and great at what he does. It is money well spent. He raised my daughter's English score from a 23 to 34! Her super score went from a 29 to a 32. So thankful for Alex's expertise!"

"Definitely use Alex. He helped me improve my score 11 points in just 5-6 sessions. I gained skills to use outside of the ACT in all areas of English including comma use, sentence structure, and more."

"Alex's approach to test preparation and looking at the test from other angles than just content fit our son's learning style. Alex meets students where they are, is easy to work with, uses a unique approach to change how students approach testing, and makes success achievable."

"Hey Alex, Corbin got his first ACT back and he got a 33!!!!! Thank you so much for helping him. PROUD MOM!"

"Got a 33 on my ACT with a perfect 36 in reading. Thanks for all the help."

"Preston felt more confident after the first meeting with Alex. Truly gave him motivation to do the work needed to improve his score. He is an anxious tester and loses concentration easily. Alex took the time to explain ways around this. ACT Prep with Alex helped Preston move from a 19 to 25 with the skills he learned."

"Thanks to Alex my son was able to improve 5 points over the course of his 10 weeks of tutoring from his first practice test to his end result on test day. Alex is very organized and provides the student everything they need to be successful in ACT prep. My son was hesitant to do ACT tutoring, but Alex made the process as painless as possible. Having Alex come to our house was the key for my very busy son. He was flexible with timing and allowed us to change our tutoring as needed to fit our schedule. I'd definitely recommend Alex."

"Katelyn scored a 30 on her ACT in September, up from 25 when she took it last fall. Her math stayed at 26, but everything else went up; reading went up to a 34."

"Alex always came prepared with more than enough resources to provide me with enough practice and knowledge for when the actual test came around. On top of this, he was super easy to work with and communicated ideas in a way that made it easy to learn and understand any concept. Alex truly knew the ins and outs of the test and his tips on its format as well as how to approach the test proved just as useful as his teachings of the actual content. Would recommend him to anyone looking for a tutor!"

"Aislinn did very well on her ACT. She just got her score two days ago and it was 3 points higher than when she started with you! So thanks so much for your work with her. She is very happy and excited she does not have to take it again."

"Alex was the reason my son was able to raise his overall ACT score by 3 points! He taught my son how to maximize his knowledge of the test categories by using test-taking strategies that work. I plan to utilize Alex's tutoring services for my younger son."

"Personally I liked having to do full practice tests for homework. Although it's a really big time commitment, I feel like it just provides a better sense of reassuring and helps me improve as much as possible. I also found the timing strategy cheat sheets that go super in depth extremely helpful. This helped me fix a lot of timing issues (especially with math) and gave me a more concise idea on how I should divide up the questions in regards to time. I also found reviewing the basic topic cheat sheets for each section also helpful."

"The one on one experience was very helpful. Going through the problems I missed and taking a second look also gave me more insight on what I got wrong. Being able to take all the extra practice tests helped me feel very comfortable and confident when I took the real test."

"Alex is fantastic! His ability to relate to and motivate my child was incredible. Alex was able to break down the ACT and identify the best way to teach my son to navigate his way through the test. Alex is personable, professional, and patient. I would absolutely recommend him."

"We are thankful our neighbor recommended Alex! My daughter raised her score by 3 points, so far. We plan to use his tutoring services for our younger son, too."

"Alex helped me figure out the best approach for me to succeed on the ACT, whereas in other programs they typically use a universal approach for every student. Alex helped me not only feel more knowledgeable in each of the subject areas, but also be more confident in my testing abilities. I loved how he catered our sessions to my learning style in order to make me really optimistic in understanding of the test and give me the tools I needed to improve my score to my goal range!"

"Ellen is over the moon!!! I should have videoed her viewing her results! She was jumping around like she just got Taylor Swift tickets!"

"I have used Alex to work with both my children to better understand how to approach the ACT. The time and money were well worth the results!"

"My prep with Alex was very beneficial because of the techniques he taught me on how to take the test. Also, I learned a lot of math topics that I have not yet learned in school. Your instruction for sure helped me a lot, thanks."

"I would 100% recommend Alex. He helped me do things that I thought I never could do on the test, even with dyslexia. The 1-on-1 prep process was a lot more personal and helpful for just me, compared to a class."

"There was constant improvement between each individual session. I went up 6 points and did not expect to go up that much. It takes time, but it's worth it because you improve a lot."

"We are thrilled with the experience we had with Alex at Pathway Prep from start to finish. Alex was very professional, well-prepared, and easy to work with.

We are recommending Alex to everyone looking to improve their ACT score. The small investment we made in these prep classes is returning huge in scholarship funds."

Would definitely recommend Alex to any kids and families that need full ACT prep or if just needing help getting those few extra points! GREAT experience all around."

"Alex was excellent. My son had a great connection with him and felt his time with Alex was very productive. My son progressed quickly with Alex. Communication was great."

"Alex really helped me feel more confident and not as nervous going in on test day. We started tutoring later so we did not have a lot of time to prepare, but I still feel like with the short time given that I improved a lot."

"Thank you so much for your patience and guidance with Makenna. She is a quiet kid, but she listens and I believe she took your tips to heart. We were all happy to see the results yesterday. You could see the relief in her face."

"Alex was super helpful with getting me ready for the act, he always told me what I was doing for homework that week & why. I felt that I saw improvement very quickly. I enjoyed meeting once a week to see exactly how I was progressing. He always had something positive to say, even when I wasn't doing my best."

"I wanted to give you the good news that Ethan got a 28 on his ACT! I'm certain that your tutoring played a big part in raising his score so thank you so much! I would have thanked you even if his score hadn't gone up because I could tell that you were spot on in your approach. We really appreciate your time and glad to report it made a big difference!"

"I liked that many of the tests I practiced on were real tests, and realistically reflected the questions on the official test. Repetition was also a very important part of my improvement. I also thought that discussing general trends and rules within tests was very helpful."

"Alex was so easy to work with. He really focuses on the individual student. He doesn't approach things with a one-size-fits-all solution. It's personalized and time is spent where it's really needed. He also does a great job of building confidence in his students which can play a huge role in helping to overcome test anxiety. I honestly wish this type of service was made available to all students. Alex shared insights and strategies we wouldn't have known otherwise. His service was invaluable."

"I was extremely nervous to take the ACT for the first time. Alex helped me with not only improving my understanding on each topic, but also to specifically learn and focus on strategies that I would see on the test. It is easy to tell how much he cares about working with us students to perform to the best of our ability. Taking the ACT no matter what is difficult, but his preparatory work and advice helped reduce my worries significantly."

"Alex had such a great rapport with both my son and daughter and got right down to business every single session. Not a moment was wasted and it was money well spent as the confidence both my kids had going into the testing day was evident. After having spent time with Alex, my son's ACT score went up several points from the first time he took it."

"This was a really great experience for me. It was very engaging and Alex let me solve pieces of the puzzle along the way, allowing me to learn faster and make stronger connections than if I was just doing practice tests by myself."

"Alex, we totally forgot to text you yesterday because we were all beyond excited...Cameron got a 33 on the ACT!!! After getting a 29 multiple times, he never imagined he could go up 4 points! He got a 36 on science, 35 on English, 32 on math and 29 on reading...so highest scores on all. We are so thankful for your help and the second thing he said after telling us his score he said he never has to take it again."

"It was as much review as practice. I thought there would be more homework to do, but talking about it was as good or better. An important thing I gained, besides a score I wanted, is learning skills in each topic that I didn't know I needed. It is something that will persist even when I no longer care about my score."

"Alex is amazing and absolutely can help your child. Both of my children saw great results with him and they both had completely different starting points, goals and needs. Call him now!"

"Hi Alex! I just got my ACT scores back yesterday. I jumped up six points! Six whole points! I'm really excited, and I wanted to thank you for helping me. I hope you're having a good week, thanks again."

"Hard work pays off. Thank you so much for getting me there."

"Alex, I know it has been a while, but I wanted to tell you Corbin got a 29 on the ACT! That gets him to the next tier for scholarships. Thanks for the coaching."

"Hi Alex. I just wanted to extend my sincere thanks to you for doing such a good job with Brett on his tutoring. As you know, He improved his score dramatically, which gives him many more options for college. Please feel free to use me as a reference, should you need one. You really did a fine job with Brett. Thanks so much."

"I got a 32 composite, with a 30 in math, 32 in science, 36 in english, and 31 in reading. Thanks for your help in getting that score!"
