Pat Hennes

Chief Operating Officer

Having grown up in a house in which both parents were public school administrators, Pat learned from an early age the importance of education and the value of distinguished instruction. These values continued with him to U.C. Davis, where he earned a B.A. in History and Political Science and developed a passion for curriculum and test preparation. Soon after graduating, he began working as a public school teacher, a job that, despite its rewards, made him yearn for the more personal connection he could have as a test prep expert. He's been supporting students with their test prep needs for over 20 years. As Chief Operation Officer, Pat oversees all aspects of TestTakers. He and his team continue to focus on helping students reach their testing and academic goals while creating a supportive and comfortable environment for students to thrive in. Native to Northern California, Pat's passionate about golfing, spending time with his wife, Mollie, and their Boston Terrier, Lola and all things San Francisco sports.
