"Knowledge Guides has been an excellent investment for our family. Both of my children took Knowledge Guide courses and improved their SAT/ACT scores by at least 10%. James Pipkin really impressed me. He was very honest in what he thought he could accomplish and expect. He was very professional and worked well with both kids. My youngest in particular made huge strides in reading and writing after his work with James. I recommend meeting with him if you think your student would benefit from the Knowledge Guides course. You can trust him to tell you what he has to offer as well as to deliver on his promises."
