My daughter had done well on the ACT, but nothing compared to the reformation of understanding that came from training with Dr. Wycondia West! Rubyen Patrick participated in her Boot Camp, but the true growth came from the coaching Dr. West provided with her one-on-one instruction. As parents, we are swift to employ personal trainers for our athletes. Dr. West cultivates an academic obstacle course to ensure training of the mind for our students. Encouraging words, subtle tricks, and proven tips were icing on the cake!

Because of her guiding hands, my daughter earned her IB Diploma from W.P. Davidson High School, graduated with honors with a double major after completing a by-invitation-only Honors Thesis from Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, and completed her first year of medical school at the Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons at Columbia University in New York, New York!

Dr. West invests in the students she serves. Her skills are not merely retained contractually! She is the tutor who shows up at honors days, high school graduations, and again at White Coat Ceremonies for medical school (no matter where these events take place).

If you and your son or daughter are ready to commit to do the work to make strides on the ACT Plus Writing, book with her!

Dr. West did an excellent job of preparing my daughter for the ACT during her senior year. Dr. West is well-researched in test-taking strategies that yield high performance outcomes. Dr. West strategically combines strategies and methods with knowledge of content to provide a formula for student success. My daughter greatly benefited from Dr. West’s individual and small group sessions. Most importantly, Dr. West equipped her with confidence. As a result, my daughter’s ACT composite score increased making her more marketable for scholarships and admission into numerous colleges. I highly recommended Dr. West. Her follow-up with students she’s worked with is also amazing. She keeps up with their accomplishments in college and beyond. The best in the business!

I teach grades 10-12 Advanced Mathematics in Washington County, Alabama and have observed Dr. West as she positively prepared our students for the ACT.
Dr. West is highly respected, qualified and motivational with her methods of preparation.
Our student’s have experienced scores improving from 20 to 34 on the ACT in the past 4 years.
I have been encouraged and supported by her tactics of determining what the students should focus on before, during, and after testing.
I look forward to her training sessions with our students during the 2024-2025 school year. You can also sign up for one-on-one sessions with your child/student.
May God continue to Bless Dr. West and her motivational talents.

Dr. West is simply the best. Words cannot explain how much she cares about all of her scholars. I had the privilege to work with Dr. West for several years. During Covid, Dr. West's virtual ACT boot camps were a lifesaver. Thanks to her tips & strategies, I was able to increase my ACT composite score by several points. I have never been a good standardized test taker, but Dr. West helped me gain confidence when taking standardized tests. I am so grateful for the opportunity to have worked with Dr. West. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants to achieve their goal of increasing their ACT score. Dr. West is there for her scholars whenever we need her. Dr. West's love does not stop when we leave her office after an ACT Prep class. Her love continues to follow us throughout the rest of our lives. I will always know that Dr. West is always one phone call or text away.

I attended Dr. West’s session on “ACT Science and Critical Thinking in the CTE Classroom.” Dr. West encouraged audience participation throughout the session and her delivery was exceptional! She shared several tips on how to help students correlate CTE lessons and assessments with the requirements for the Science portion of the ACT. Great session!

Dr. West did an excellent job preparing my son for the ACT. He took her group subject reviews and a one-on-one class and was able to increase his score from a 28 to a 34. I had heard great things about her program but it far exceeded my expectations (and anything my older children had participated in). She cares about her students, has a great connection with them and is a great motivator. I highly recommend Dt. West to anyone looking for ACT prep.

Dr. West gave a great presentation with tips and tricks for the ACT. I can’t wait to use her advice & hopefully better prepare my students for the ACT!

Dr. West has a true calling to help students achieve their goals. After attending her workshops, my son increased his composite ACT score 5 points!! Yes, you read that correctly. His scores went from a 27 to a 32!! With this accomplishment, my son will be able to go to the college of his dreams to pursue aeronautical engineering. We could not be more proud of him or more happy with Dr. West’s services!
