Assorted Testimonials
The personal attention that I received with the live class was priceless. After attending all the lectures and completing all the homework, I spent two weeks studying using the schedule and technique Dr. Ibrahim recommended. I felt very confident on the day of my exam. Your course was instrumental in my passing the exam. Thank you so much.

Like many others have said, the class was exceptionally great. Dr. Ibrahim is always willing to help with all his heart. Every single class elements was very helpful and valuable. No exceptions! Workbook is well presented with sufficient information to understand the concepts specifically for the exam and has lots of practice problems. Summary sheet was pretty helpful. Lectures were comprehensive and easy to follow. I sincerely thank Dr. Ibrahim for his endless effort and time.
