Jim is patient, flexible, and willing to explain things in multiple ways. He's very encouraging and helped me overcome a lot of my test anxiety. The last time I took the test, I felt like I was studying with no real direction. Jim was able to help me form a plan for how to utilize the time I had most effectively. I went into the test feeling confident and prepared and it was 100% due to Jim!
