Questions
Good to know.
Does the diagnostic cost anything?
No. The diagnostic is free and you do not need an account to start it. It runs 35 minutes, the same length as the real ACT English section, and you make an account when you are ready to keep going.
How much is the Bennett Online Classroom?
It is $79 a month for one student, with all 21 English topics, the practice banks, and every practice test. Your student gets full access from day one of the free trial and the first charge lands on day 7.
Can I cancel?
Yes, anytime, in one click. A card starts the free trial, we send a reminder before each renewal, and there is no long commitment.
Is this built for the current ACT?
Yes. The lessons and the tests match today's exam, including the shorter 50-question, 35-minute English section, and Andrew still sits for the ACT and the SAT himself, so the material keeps up with what the tests are actually doing.
Can we work with Andrew in person instead?
Sometimes. In person Andrew teaches every subject on the ACT and the SAT, one student at a time at the Cornelius office, and spots open a few at a time through the year because he is the one teaching them. Apply on the in-person page while applications are open and he will call you himself.
Why a monthly subscription instead of a one-time video course?
The work adapts, because mastery is measured topic by topic and what your student gets next depends on what they missed. Fresh full-length practice tests arrive on a schedule, so the second one is not the first one over again. Progress is a score on a real 50-question section rather than a percentage of videos watched, which is a harder measure and a more useful one. And you cancel anytime, so you pay for the months your student is actually working.
When should we start?
Most students do their best work over 8 to 12 weeks, so the October and December ACT dates and the spring school-day test are what families usually aim at. If your student is sitting in September, use the Bennett Online Classroom as a final tune-up on the topics that are already close. Start with the free diagnostic either way and you will see where the points are going.
What does my student need to use it?
A computer, tablet, or phone with a browser, and there is nothing to install or print. Practice tests read best on a laptop or a tablet, where the passage and the questions sit side by side, and the lessons and drills work fine on a phone.
Can we pause instead of canceling?
Yes. A pause stops the billing while your student is off, keeps the account and the mastery record, and picks back up when you resume. Canceling ends the billing in one click and your student keeps full access through the end of the month you already paid for.
How is the Bennett Online Classroom different from working with Andrew in person?
In-person classes are Andrew's own time at the Cornelius office, one student at a time at his hourly rate, covering every subject on the ACT and the SAT, and he takes a limited number of students each cycle. The Bennett Online Classroom is his ACT English method written down and made self-paced, so a student can work through it on their own schedule from anywhere. Plenty of families do both.
