Joey
BA Columbia University in the City of New York
9+ Years Tutoring

I am a graduate of Columbia University with a degree in Drama and Theatre Arts. I taught math and essay writing to my peers in high school and college, and have tutored a close friend in her mathematics courses since junior year of high school. I am most comfortable and passionate about tutoring SAT prep, particularly the Math section and subject tests. I believe in supporting and encouraging my students and making material as accessible as possible, breaking down what may be difficult subject matter into terms and concepts that they already understand. I firmly believe in the potential of every student to grasp material that they may think is out of reach, and aim to reduce the stress factor of studying as much as possible. Outside of tutoring, I am a professional actor and playwright, and in my free time (a rare, mystical thing these days) I enjoy playing guitar and mandolin, practicing yoga, and my PS4.

James
BA Harvard University
1+ Years Tutoring

I am currently a senior at Harvard College where I study chemistry, and I'll be attending Columbia Medical School next year. I have years of experience tutoring college students in math (mostly calculus) and chemistry including both general and organic chemistry. In addition, I am very familiar with all sections of the SAT and ACT having prepared several high school students for these tests. I believe that every student is capable of boosting his or her baseline score on these tests, so long as he or she works hard to get to know the format of the tests and the most popular types of questions. I tutor because I love seeing students develop a genuine passion for the subjects they once disliked (such as math and science), once they understand the power of these subjects and their applications to the real world.

Jamie
BA PENN. STATE University • Doctor of Medicine, MD Program Sidney Kimmel Medical College at Jefferson University
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a Penn State Graduate (B.S.) and am currently a student at Sidney Kimmel Medical College at Jefferson University. My goal as a tutor is to help make the subjects I love approachable to other students, and to teach the study techniques that have served me well in school. I have tutored people in Biology, Physiology, general and Organic Chemistry, Biochemistry, Writing proficiency, and Physics. I also teach SHSAT prep to 7th graders. I am qualified to teach strategy and content for the SAT and MCAT, as well as high school Science, Writing, and Math classes. My greatest strength as a tutor is my ability to simplify abstract concepts using analogies and real-life comparisons so that anybody can learn them. Showing students how their studies relate to the rest of the world is the best way to create long term interest and understanding. My main focus is typically "teaching toward the test," as making sure my students get the grades they need is always the priority.

Frequently Asked Questions

Score improvement varies based on your starting point and study commitment, but most students see meaningful gains with personalized instruction focused on their specific weak areas. Many students improve by 5-10 points or more when working with a tutor who can identify patterns in their mistakes and teach targeted strategies for each section. The key is consistent practice combined with expert feedback on your reasoning process, not just the answers you got wrong.

Your first session typically involves a diagnostic assessment to understand your current strengths and weaknesses across the three LSAT sections: Logical Reasoning, Reading Comprehension, and Analytical Reasoning (Logic Games). Varsity Tutors connects you with a tutor who will review your practice test results, discuss your target law schools and score goals, and create a personalized study plan. This foundation helps your tutor tailor future sessions to address your specific challenges rather than generic test prep.

Logic Games require a different skill set than the other LSAT sections—they're about mastering game types, diagramming efficiently, and building speed through repetition. A tutor can teach you the framework for each game type, show you how to set up diagrams quickly, and help you practice with timed drills to build confidence. Many students find that once they understand the underlying logic and practice consistently, this section becomes one of their strongest.

Pacing is one of the most common challenges—you need to balance accuracy with speed, and that balance is different for each person. A tutor can help you identify whether you're rushing too much or spending too long on difficult questions, then practice strategies like skipping and returning to questions, using elimination techniques, and managing your time per section. Working through timed practice tests with expert feedback helps you develop a pacing strategy that works for your strengths.

Most LSAT prep experts recommend taking 20-40 full practice tests as part of your study plan, spaced out over several months with focused review between tests. Rather than just taking tests, the real value comes from analyzing your mistakes—identifying whether you missed questions due to timing, misreading, or conceptual gaps. A tutor can help you extract maximum learning from each practice test by reviewing your performance patterns and adjusting your study strategy accordingly.

Most students benefit from 2-4 months of consistent study, though this depends on your starting score, target score, and how many hours per week you can dedicate to prep. For students in New York with access to quality tutoring, a typical schedule might include weekly or bi-weekly tutoring sessions combined with independent practice between sessions. Your tutor can help you create a realistic timeline based on your goals and adjust the pace as needed based on your progress.

Reading Comprehension on the LSAT tests your ability to understand complex passages and answer questions about main ideas, details, and author's reasoning—not just reading speed. Effective strategies include active reading (annotating as you go), identifying the passage structure, and understanding question types before diving into the text. A tutor can teach you how to read strategically for the LSAT, practice with timed passages, and develop a consistent approach that works for your learning style.

Test anxiety often stems from feeling unprepared or uncertain about your approach—tutoring addresses both by building confidence through mastery and familiarity. Working through practice tests with a tutor, receiving expert feedback, and developing proven strategies helps you feel more in control on test day. Additionally, a tutor can help you identify which sections trigger anxiety and develop specific techniques to manage stress during the actual exam.
