What We Do
At MasteryPrep, we believe every student can score college ready on the ACT, and SAT.
And we do mean every student.
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. We have provided hundreds of schools and school districts across the country with an arsenal of teacher-friendly tools that are easily customized to fit their budget, schedule, and student skill level.
Education is capable of lifting students out of poverty and opening them up to a new world of opportunities. When given access to education, every child has the ability to gain the confidence, experience, and potential to broaden his or her horizons. We believe that by changing the world of these students through education, we can change the world for everyone.
