Craig Gehring, founder and president of MasteryPrep, earned perfect scores on the ACT and SAT and has been helping students master the ACT ever since.
He founded MasteryPrep in 2013 in the hopes of closing the achievement gap that prevents poor and impoverished students from getting the help they need to improve their ACT scores, get into the college of their choice, and secure a bright future for themselves.
At MasteryPrep, our goal is to help these students boost their scores using targeted, engaging test-prep materials that emphasize remediation and subject-mastery.
