I first learned about MJ Prep from a dear friend that just raved over how well they prepared their son for the ACT. I initially purchased 4 - 2 hour sessions to test the waters but then punched another 4 (so 8 total) after we knew this would be a good fit for my girl. My daughter is a good student but struggles with standardize testing. She was skeptical that the tutoring would really make a difference and she was a little nervous amount connecting well with the tutor. Donovan Kelly was her instructor and I cannot say enough about him. Mr. Kelly came once a week initially then we moved to every other week as my daughter finals came around. He was prompt, thorough, and did not waste any time once he arrived. He was constantly praising her for her efforts and any progress she had made on the homework assignments. He was extremely flexible with our crazy schedule as well. He immediately identified areas she needed the most help with and helped her to feel more confident about taking the test. My daughter increased her composite score by 6 points. She took the ACT twice while tutoring with MJ Prep. This program and Donovan Kelly is worth every penny. I highly recommend.
I did mjprep for the ACT. My first test I got a 30, but thanks to them, I ended up getting a 34. Not only was the service good from a standpoint of overall performance, but my tutor, Donovan, was a super nice guy who was really kind and accommodating.
My son had a great experience with Michael Jordan College Prep. From the very first session, he connected with his tutor Witt Womack (who was fantastic, btw), and looked forward to their weekly meetings. As a result, I am very pleased with my sons test scores. MJ Prep was worth the investment, and I highly recommend them.
Big thank you to Donovan and MJ Prep for helping my son prepare for his SAT test. With their help, he got the scores needed to get into his school of choice. THANK YOU!!!!
MJ Prep went above and beyond our expectations with prepping both of our boys for their standardized tests and an additional college entrance essay. They made this process very convenient from the comfort of our own home. We would recommend MJ Prep to all parents looking to prep their child for the next step in their life, to become the independent, self sufficient young adults we all desire them to be.Thank you MJ Prep.MJ Prep was worth the investment in our childrens future.Christina and Eric Wolfe
We contacted MJ Prep to help our son bring his ACT score up. They were quick to get a phone call said up to go over our needs and goals. They were a little delayed in getting us the practice assessment, we just had to check in and then we got it. Once they identified what needs would be best for our son, they got us connected with one of their tutors, Jenna. She was so easy to coordinate with & super flexible when we needed to change appts. Our son has already taken the ACT through school but after 6/1 hour sessions he was able to bring his score up by 6 points! Super pleased with the experience and work! Jenna was fabulous!
Michael Jordan came to our home and interviewed my son and I. He quickly built a great rapport. He was very informed about school grading online systems and wanted to know what truly motivated him to learn. He not only wanted to work with him on his test scores, but on other avenues to earn college scholarship money. I highly recommend the Michael Jordan College Prep program.
Michael was extremely knowledgeable and made a great connection with my husband, myself, and my daughter during her initial assessment. He recommended that she work with Heather, who was a fabulous match for our daughter. She helped our daughter make connections and she encouraged her along the way. We highly recommend Michael Jordan College Prep. We appreciate their commitment and desire to assist kids with their future. Thank you!
We had a great experience with Michael Jordan and are very pleased as the huge improvement it made on my son’s ACT score. From the first meeting with Michael we were impressed with his ability to simplify the entire process and really pinpoint where our son should focus. His tutor, Jake Theriot, was a great match for our son and was very easy to work with. My son looked forward to their tutoring session and he was really able to push him to reach his full potential. We highly recommend Michael!
MJ College Prep class was an amazing experience for our son. He accomplished so much more than getting his applications ready for college. It brought rich discussion into our house. Erika and Micheal really came to understand our son. They did not sugar coat anything. They are honest and professional and helped him get motivated for the why in the process.
We were thoroughly impressed with our consultation with Michael Jordan. He really knew how to talk to our son about his educational experience so far, his strengths and weaknesses with school work and test and what he is looking for in a college. After our meeting, we felt so confident that Bryce will be prepared to take the right test for him with a plan in place to get the score he wants. We highly recommend Michael!
We are so thankful for Megan Green and all of her help. She was very knowledgeable and knew so many tips and tricks to help my son attack the test. She genuinely wanted to see Sam improve his test scores.
Even from the initial consultation, I had a great feeling from Michael Jordan. He was very knowledgable and seemed to personalize what he said based on what he knew about me and matched me up with what seemed to be the perfect tutor. Witt (my tutor) was amazing! He knew exactly how to explain things so that I could understand them quickly and taught me many tricks to help improve my time on the ACT. Thanks to him, I managed to improve my ACT score by 5 points. Highly recommend seeing Michael Jordan and Witt Womack for what they did for me.
Just finished the College App Camp! Michael was extremely helpful in getting ahead on my applications and compiling my list of schools. Since I normally procrastinate, I never imagined that I would already have so much done in July! My stress surrounding college applications has now completely shifted to motivation and excitement.
I used Michael Jordan College Prep for both ACT tutoring and College App Camp. My ACT score improved by 9 points thanks to dedicated tutors. College App Camp really helped me to get ahead on college applications. We discussed strategies and created a plan that will continue to benefit me well beyond the camp. Michael and Erika were able to answer any questions I had about the application process, and they provided insight as to what colleges are looking for as far as resumés and essays. Highly recommend!!
Michael is an excellent tutor. He helped my son prepare for the ACT. My son loved working with Michael and actually looked forward to the sessions. I highly recommend Direction Tutors!
Hired Direction Tutors after a raving review from one of our friends who worked with Michael and saw huge results.... After 6 2 hour sessions with Michael my daughter took the ACT and improved her score by 5 points...Her confidence and excitement going into the test was refreshing and exciting...We did a mass ACT class the first time with no results.....Michael dives in and seems to adapt to the students learning level...I have recommended him 3 times and all with similar results!!...
Michael and Lawrence are reliable and professional. Very convenient that they come to the house for one-on-one tutoring. My sons learn a lot in each session and ask for more. They are in the process of testing and feel confident going into each test. Thanks Direction Tutors!
After being tutored by both Michael and Peter, I had a great experience overall. I met my goals and learned a lot of helpful testing strategies. Both tutors were on time, prepared, and knowledgeable.
We have been tutoring with Donovan from MJ Prep and it has paid off! Donovan not only helped my son with ACT test taking skills, but he gave him the confidence he needed to score high! We love Donovan and Michael Jordan College Prep.
Michael was very personable and made my son very comfortable during the consultation. He did a great job getting to know my son and his needs and desires. Very professional.
We found our first meeting with Michael very insightful and comfortable. We liked the one on one nature of the approach they take and found it far superior to the competitor.
Test strategies were spot on and tutors adapted approach to build confidence. This approach to tutoring is effective and generates results, a 9-point improvement in the ACT score in our case.
Micheal was extremely personable and scheduling our initial consultation could not have been easier. My son is extremely excited about getting started with his ACT/SAT prep this summer!
My son has only had the initial consultation, but he is already excited about the tutoring. The testing process stresses him out, but after just meeting Michael he feels confidant that he can tackle the test in a few months and improve his score.
We used MJ Prep with our son a couple of years ago and were more than pleased with not only the results, but also the confidence it gave our son when preparing and taking the ACT test. Raising his score by 4 points was outstanding in our opinion, especially when the starting point was a 28 and he ended with a 32!As we prepare for our daughters Junior year of high school, she is excited to work with MJ Prep to help her learn testing tips, preparation for the SAT/ACT and ways to improve her score between tests. She has set some high goals for herself and knows that MJ Prep is one of the tools she will use to help her achieve those goals.I highly recommend this program and MJ Prep to anyone that is interested in using a personalized approach, NOT a set curriculum taking weeks and months on end, to assist their student in preparing for the standardized tests required for college admission. Do your student a favor and call MJ Prep today!
Michael was very welcoming and established rapport with our son and addressed questions to him getting a gauge for his strengths as a student. He explained the next steps very well and gave both of us the opportunity to ask questions.
