Julia

11th Grade math Tutor • +41 Subjects

I am a recent college graduate currently pursuing a career in publishing in New York City. My interest in tutoring and the publishing industry stem from the same source: I want to help instill in others the same love of learning I have felt throughout my life. Whether it's getting lost in a good book or feeling the thrill of excitement at finally solving a difficult math problem, I feel that learning should be fun and viewed as a challenge, not a chore. Throughout my academic career, I have been a well-rounded student, excelling in math as well as language and literature. I am a notoriously good test-taker, a skill developed from solid study habits that I hope to pass on to future students. For me, tutoring is my way of giving back to my community and paying forward the help I've gotten from teachers, mentors, and fellow students throughout my life.

Justin

Calculus Tutor • +28 Subjects

I am a college instructor with ten years experience in the classroom as a teacher and tutor. Originally from South Carolina, I went to school in Pennsylvania and currently live in Alabama. I believe that students learn best through practice and approaching learning through a relaxed lens, thinking about the larger, structural questions behind their concerns in order to gain a broader and more inclusive understanding of the subject matter. My tutoring philosophy stems from the belief that students and tutors are peers, and that collaboration is the best means for students to learn, not just reciting or memorizing what I might suggest. Working together, and making sure students take ownership and pride in their work, leads to a stronger educational foundation, both in our tutoring sessions and the student's future.

I do not just help my students learn the material, but I also teach them how to learn it. I tutor math and test prep courses. Outside of school and tutoring, I play the piano. I have played classical piano for 13 years and jazz piano for 7. Hobbies: reading, music, art, books, writing

Anya

Middle School Math Tutor • +24 Subjects

I am a graduate of the MA Fashion Studies program at Parsons The New School for Design in New York, having previously studied linguistics and foreign languages (concentrating in Russian and French) at the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque and at McGill University in Montreal. I currently serve as adjunct faculty in the Art and Design History and Theory department at Parsons, where I specialize in courses which combine numerous disciplines within the humanities, such as a course about the relationship between fashion and language and a graduate seminar about writing for fashion publications. I have also led elementary summer art camp workshops in my hometown of Los Alamos, New Mexico. My teaching methods, which are interactive, engaging, and tailored to a range of learning styles, have consistently been described by my students as motivational and encouraging. I tutor a wide range of subjects, from Middle School Math to PSAT and SAT test preparation, but I am most passionate about Critical Reading and Writing and Essay Editing. These are areas in which my students make remarkable progress in short periods of time and also find great pleasure in relating the themes of their writing to their own outside interests and passions. I also enjoy helping students prepare to take standardized tests by addressing, in an understanding and accommodating way, the common anxieties and stresses that can accompany test-taking. Outside of school and tutoring, I enjoy traveling, reading, visiting museums, cooking, and snowboarding.

Rebecca

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +48 Subjects

I am a graduate of Northwestern University where I received a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a minor in Religious Studies. I am currently pursuing a masters degree in social work at the University of Chicago's School of Social Service Administration. I am passionate about tutoring because I want everyone to be able to perform academically at their highest possible level. I also think it is important that learning is not just for one assignment or one test, but rather that it sticks with you to build a solid foundation of knowledge and confidence that you can carry forward. My favorite subjects to tutor include English, SAT test preparation, math, and psychology. My approach to tutoring is to meet the student where they're at and go from there. I find that this way we can build a productive tutoring relationship where I can help individualize learning to each person's particular learning style. Outside of academic interests, I enjoy cooking, being with friends and family, traveling the world, and looking as ridiculous as possible doing Zumba.

Emily

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +30 Subjects

I am currently a fourth year medical student in Indianapolis. I completed my undergraduate education at Indiana University Bloomington, where I majored in Biology and Spanish. I also completed two minors in Mathematics and Chemistry. While at IU, I worked for the Department of Mathematics and Department of Spanish. I also worked as a Peer Tutor for the IU Athletics Department, tutoring in several subjects including statistics, chemistry, physics, and Spanish. I graduated from college with a 4.0, and I entered medical school shortly thereafter. Since coming to medical school, I have excelled in all of my pre-clinical coursework, and I currently rank in the Top 20% of my class. I feel very comfortable and confident tutoring other students in a variety of subjects from math and science to Spanish. I like to think that the same techniques I have used to excel in all phases of my education can be easily adapted to other students and help you achieve your academic goals, just as I have! Hobbies: reading, writing, books, traveling, music, art, travel

Elena

Calculus Tutor • +23 Subjects

I am a second year law student at the University of Chicago who hails from the San Francisco Bay Area! I tutor the SAT, ESL, and Spanish. I was an AVID tutor in high school, and after college I taught an ESL class and tutored a high school student in Spanish. In law school, I am involved with the Lawyers in the Classroom program. My tutoring philosophy is based on listening to students work through problems and helping them to spot their confusions or incorrect assumptions. I believe students learn much better when they aren't simply told the right answer or right reasoning; they need to get there on their own.

Satvik

AP Statistics Tutor • +68 Subjects

I am an incoming college sophomoore studying Aerospace Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology. I was one of the top scholars at Carmel High School in Indiana and have various experiences teaching and tutoring through leading the Carmel High School Science Olympiad team to Nationals for two years in a row. Many of my friends consistently come to me for help with various subjects because of my willingness to help and teach in a way that makes sense to everyone. My specialities are physics, chemistry, math, and economics but I am comfortable tutoring any STEM subject, the SAT, and the ACT. Some of my accomplishments include a perfect 36 ACT score, 800 on the Physics, Math Level 2, and Chemistry SAT subject tests, and a 5 on all the physics, Calculus BC, Chemistry, Macroeconomics, Computer Science, etc. AP exams. When teaching, I focus on making sure that not only do students understand different concepts, but also that students understand why and practical applications of the different concepts. As a recent high school graduate, I have a deep understanding of how high-schoolers think, what is covered in various courses now, and can connect with my students a lot more. Additionally, as an undergraduate teaching assistant at the College of Computing at Georgia Tech, I taught weekly recitation sections of 30 students and held weekly office hours. Therefore, I have lots of experience teaching and working with students.

Frequently Asked Questions

Logic Games is often the most intimidating section because it requires both pattern recognition and spatial reasoning under time pressure—skills that don't transfer directly from other academic work. A tutor can break down the diagramming systems that make games manageable, help you recognize game types quickly, and build the muscle memory needed to set up and solve games in under 8-9 minutes each. Many students improve dramatically once they have a consistent, personalized approach rather than trying random strategies.

LSAT Reading Comp requires active annotation and identifying the author's main point and argument structure—not just understanding content. A tutor can teach you how to map passages efficiently, spot common question traps (like answers that are true but don't answer the specific question), and manage the cognitive load of dense passages. The key is learning to read strategically for test purposes, which is very different from how you'd read for pleasure or even for college classes.

Students often miss the distinction between the argument's conclusion and supporting premises, fall for answer choices that sound reasonable but don't match the logical structure, or spend too much time on complex wording. A tutor focuses on teaching you to strip arguments down to their skeleton, identify assumption-based reasoning, and recognize common logical fallacies (like scope shifts or false causation). With targeted practice, you can learn to spot these patterns instantly rather than re-analyzing each argument from scratch.

Timing isn't just about speed—it's about strategic allocation. A tutor helps you identify which question types you should tackle first (usually easier ones to build confidence), which to skip strategically, and how to allocate your 35 minutes per section based on your strengths. For example, if Logic Games is your weakness, you might spend 22 minutes there and 13 on Reading Comp, rather than dividing time equally. Personalized pacing strategies are far more effective than generic "spend X minutes per question" advice.

Score improvement depends on your starting point and effort level. Students starting around 140-150 often see 10-15 point improvements with consistent tutoring, while those already at 160+ may see 3-5 point gains since the questions become significantly harder. The LSAT rewards mastery of patterns and strategy, so students who are willing to do untimed practice and review mistakes thoroughly tend to see the best results. A tutor can help you identify exactly which question types are costing you points and create a focused improvement plan.

Practice tests are essential—they build stamina, reveal your weak areas, and let you experience the actual test format. A tutor should have you take full, timed tests regularly (typically every 1-2 weeks) and then spend most of your tutoring time reviewing mistakes in depth rather than drilling individual questions. The goal is understanding why you got something wrong: Did you misread the question? Miss a logical inference? Run out of time? This diagnostic approach is far more valuable than just practicing more questions.

Test anxiety often stems from unfamiliarity with question types or uncertainty about your approach. A tutor builds confidence by ensuring you've seen every common question format, have a reliable strategy for each section, and have practiced under realistic timed conditions repeatedly. When you've solved dozens of similar problems successfully, test day feels less like a mystery and more like executing a plan you've already practiced. Tutors also help you develop mental strategies for managing pressure, like knowing when to skip a tough question and return to it later.

A strong LSAT tutor should have a high personal LSAT score (typically 170+), deep familiarity with the test's logic and structure, and experience teaching students across different starting levels. They should be able to explain not just the right answer, but why the wrong answers are traps and what logical principles they violate. Look for someone who stays current with LSAT changes, uses official LSAC materials, and can diagnose your specific weak areas rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. Experience with students similar to your situation is also valuable.
