Award-Winning LSAT Tutors in Akron, OH

Over the course of my career, I have held many positions - from waitress to lawyer to campaign staffer. Reflecting upon what I liked most about my varied jobs, I realized that inherent in each one was a responsibility to train and teach others. That responsibility, simultaneously humbling and exhilarating, is where my passion lies. I love using my education and experience, coupled with multimedia tools, to help others reach their full potential. ... As a campaign organizer and a big sister to two college students, I have come to believe that it is far better to ask students what kind of world problems they would like to solve, rather than what they want to be when they grow up. The former prompts the student to think about their passion and contemplate the many ways to work toward it, while the latter is more restrictive. I believe that teaching someone how to learn (how to approach a question with a logical, problem-solving mindset) is more important than rote memorization. Finally, there are some tools I have found effective in sticking to a study schedule. For example, instead of listing everything on a to-do list, schedule study time as an appointment.

...are passionate about and connecting the area they are struggling with back to their interests. In High School, I enjoyed history much more than math. When I began to learn about the history of math, however, math suddenly became far more interesting to me, and now it is one of my favorite subjects. I have seen similar results with many of the students I tutor. I have four years of tutoring experience both at The...

...spent six years studying Biology, both as an undergrad and graduate student. I enjoy teaching!! It was the best part of being a graduate student. I was part of a peer tutoring/teaching program at my University, Northeastern State University. I helped a few students achieve a higher grade in their Biology courses. I was also a TA during grad school and helped teach Physical Science and Physics lab. I am currently trying to go to...

...high school level. Additionally, I have significant essay drafting, editing, and research experience. I am a published academic author in the Alaska Law Review, and during my second year of law school I was a staff editor for the Journal of Intellectual Property and Entertainment Law. I am particularly passionate about elementary school math and science and about literature. I absolutely believe that learning can, and should be, enjoyable and that the key to success...

...in later practice questions. I try to help my writing students develop their own voice -- I believe writing is more art than science, and that students write best when they discover their unique mode of expression. Outside of tutoring, I care deeply about poverty law and public policy. I recently started a non-profit with a classmate from law school focused on providing direct legal services to low-income clients, and organizing low-income communities to campaign...

...My goal is to create a curriculum for each individual student that is challenging and comprehensive, but not overwhelming. I will expect you to do a lot of practice problems, as I believe doing questions and then evaluating why you are wrong, and even why you're right, is essential to studying for the LSAT. While learning all the concepts might be challenging at first, if you practice - and doing practice problems is what is...

...graduate school, by helping with both test prep and admissions essays. I approach my tutoring with an open mind and work with clients to develop a preparation strategy that works for them and support them as they execute it, making changes as necessary. I like to help clients discover strengths they already have and to tackle the challenges they are working to overcome. Students can count on me to be honest, realistic, and encouraging.

...College and Georgetown Law. Teaching is in my blood-my mother is a teacher, and she instilled in me the love of helping someone reach his or her potential with compassion and enthusiasm. I have been tutoring since middle school and I don't ever plan on stopping! My favorite subject to tutor is the LSAT, but I also LOVE English, US History, and World History. During my free time, I enjoy reading voraciously, sewing, and volunteering...

...tutoring is not to simply tell a student that there is a correct- or more correct, as the test would have it- way of doing things. Helping to guide a student into figuring out that rightness for themselves helps students with the underlying skills behind each problem or subject and helps to lay a better foundation for the student to build from in the future, rather than forcing a student to memorize each operation by...
