Assorted Testimonials
Your class was by far the best PE review course I have taken. I appreciate your dedication to my understanding of the concepts and only wish my college professors were as caring as you are. Thank you Dr. Ibrahim.

I would like to thank you, Ahmed, for one of the most well organized review classes I have ever taken. What makes your class unique and truly different from the rest is the amount of effort and dedication you put into helping all of your students fully understand the materials. Not only that, but you also gave us the tools and strategies in order to learn how to tackle the questions on the exam. The extra free session you gave us aided me in enhancing my problem solving skills and grew my confidence of passing the exam. I strongly recommend your class to all my colleagues who want to acquire much needed skills to pass such a difficult test

Without all the time you put into the lectures, examples, PSWs, consultation hours, simulated exams and most importantly SUMMARY SHEETS, there is no way I would understand as much as I now do about seismic principles and designs. The summary sheet was an amazing help while practicing and during the exam!! Unmatched by anything I ever found or created for my first Seismic Principles test. The textbook is also an amazing resource, well organized and easy to read and follow. It has such an abundance of questions to help study from. Thank you again for everything you have helped me with throughout the past few months. Without your dedication, my dedication to the test would have been pointless.
