Assorted Testimonials
I wanted to take this opportunity and appreciate your amazing class and the way you present materials. I am very pleased that I took your On-Demand Seismic class and I passed the exam in the first attempt. I received my results today and I passed. I had no background in Seismic or Structure but still your class prepared me way above what I needed to pass. Thank you very much for all your hard work. Please keep up the great work.

Dr. Ibrahim, I can't thank you enough for helping me UNDERSTAND seismic analysis and not just blindly solve problems to pass the exam. Thank you for taking the time to explain complex concepts in a simple clever way. Thank you for the extremely helpful book and the summary sheets that were crucial for my success in the exam. Thank you for taking the time to solve hard questions in class and repeating the concepts till everyone understood them. It has been a pleasure being your student. I finally passed my seismic exam and became a PE in CA thanks to your efforts.
