Suzanne
Calculus Tutor • +24 Subjects
I am currently working on a Master of Arts in Philosophy at Georgia State University, where I serve as a teaching assistant and writing consultant. I currently tutor in the areas of test preparation, government, philosophy, and religious studies. My passion for education stems from the joy I find in helping students achieve their goals. My teaching style involves asking lots of strategic questions to help students discover answers for themselves, a process which my students typically find quite empowering. Still, I recognize that each student has unique needs, questions, and learning styles, so I strive to listen first and then craft individualized plans to meet each student's particular objectives. In my spare time I like to get outside hiking, playing soccer, or volunteering at my church's community garden. I also enjoy reading, watching football, and cooking.
Priya
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +27 Subjects
I am currently an undergrad at Vanderbilt University, majoring in Mathematics and Political Science. I have been tutoring students since high school, mostly in science and math. I've found that STEM courses are intimidating to many students, and I hope to get rid of that fear and promote an appreciation for numbers and the sciences. In my tutoring, I focus on helping students understand the concepts beneath the problems, so as to facilitate learning rather than memorization. I strongly believe that every student is capable of reaching a strong level of understanding in any subject, given the correct tools, a teacher who can offer what they need, and some hard work. Hobbies: reading, writing, books, music, running, hiking, art, movies
Joey
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +21 Subjects
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.

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.
