My coworker recommended Coach Dani for ACT prep and both of my kids wanted to improve their ACT scores, so I signed them up for the 10-week course. My daughter, who got a bit overwhelmed with her two schools, extracurricular activities, and trying to meet college deadline submissions, got behind on a lot of her prep course assignments, but participated in the weekly zoom classes. She did not feel good about the test after retaking it, but to her surprise, her score went up by 3 points, reaching her goal. My son had an ACT prep class through his school, which I thought would suffice, but I was wrong. He said he didnt learn much and it was reflected in his initial score, so I reached out to Dani again. Although his extracurriculars keep him busy and he hasnt been able to do all of the work, he said he was actually learning and his confidence shifted after working with Coach Dani for a few weeks. On his retake, the ACTs structure changed to the shorter (and harder, in his opinion) version. He still took the science test, although it was optional. His score improved by 3 points and he was very excited. He had 4 more sessions with Coach Dani and wanted to retake the test again to reach his goal, which I am confident he will do.

My daughter was struggling with self confidence and having test anxiety after she received her first ACT scores. She wants to attend a university that isnt test optional. I found Dani thru a Google search. We set up a call and she explained her approach to coaching for the test which sounded like what we needed, individual attention and positive feedback. My daughter had tocommit to studying for 6 weeks prior to the test. Im so happy to say with Danis coaching my daughters score improved by 5 points! Her self confidence has increased and shes happier with her score. Dani was so excited when she learned the results too! Thank you Dani!

My son has been working with Mrs. Dani since last year. We started prepping him early due to his wrestling schedule, rigor of school courses, and extracurricular activities. He started taking the test as a Freshman. With each test he has increased his score. He scored a 26 with the April test. His goal is a 30, so he is on track to be done taking the test before the start of his Junior year. Her online classes work well for us. You can also schedule individual time with her as well. She keeps the kids on track and goes and beyond to help them achieve their goals.

Thanks Tomisha! I'm looking forward seeing growth and increased ACT scores in the coming months! He definitely puts in the effort, and I can't wait to see the results!

Coach Dani is the BEST! Our son started working with her earlier this year after he had taken the ACT test 3 times and his scores didnt improve. We signed up for the program and she worked with him on a weekly routine to improve his skillset to help increase his scores. After consistently meeting with him on multiple drills he increased his scores by 3 points and we are now able to apply for the college of his choice! I cant thank Coach Dani enough for her consistency, determination and perseverance to ensure my son was successful!
