Our Team
Faye Nichols
For over 35 years, I have had the privilege of providing academic guidance, tutoring, and ACT prep for thousands of students.
My experiences as an elementary school teacher, along with those as a fulltime community college reading and English instructor and learning-support lab coordinator, inspired me to open my first tutoring company. At the request of local high school counselors two years later, I began providing ACT prep in high schools and on college campuses.
I am honored that my program and master teachers provide small group and/or individual ACT coaching that will help each student reach his or her ACT score potential.
