8+ Years Tutoring

I am a rising fourth-year medical student at Perelman SOM at the University of Pennsylvania currently taking time off from school. I am a Yale 2014 graduate (B.S. in Molecular Biophysics & Biochemistry). I spent my gap year doing wet lab research in a biochemistry lab at the main NIH campus in Bethesda, Maryland, My parents are both university math professors with a natural gift for teaching that I believe they passed on to me. I hope to apply for residency in Internal Medicine or Psychiatry and down the line in my career to teach medical students while practicing in and academic or private-practice setting. I specialize in MCAT testing but am hoping to tutor for the SAT as well, and possibly AP exams. In my free time I enjoy rock climbing, running, working out, playing video games, and dabbling in random hobbies (most recently crochet!).

Rachel
BA Georgetown University
10+ Years Tutoring

I'm a recent Georgetown University graduate originally from San Diego, CA. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Human Science, and I graduated with Honors with Distinction. While at Georgetown, I completed the pre-medical track and minored in Math. I'm an experienced standardized test taker, and I am passionate about helping students achieve their academic potential! I have tutored elementary school through college students in reading comprehension, math, SAT prep, and chemistry, and even started an afterschool engineering program for elementary school students.

While I'm not tutoring, I enjoy cooking, reading, and playing with dogs.

Katherine
BA University of Pennsylvania
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a senior at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania studying Finance and Operations & Information Management. I am an Executive Board Member of one of the largest community service groups on campus, the West Philadelphia Tutoring Project, so I have had plenty of experience tutoring elementary and middle school students in reading and math in the Philadelphia area. Prior to my experience tutoring in Philadelphia, I ran an online writing program teaching essential writing skills to elementary school students and served as an Algebra I instructor at a local community center. I enjoy tutoring math up to Algebra 2, SAT Math, and editing essays (including college essays) because helping students build math foundations that will help them for the rest of their life is rewarding and I greatly enjoy editing essays! I have a very flexible tutoring style - I am approachable and willing to answer any questions related to the material. Hopefully, I can explain things as simply as possible so they stick. Outside of school, I enjoy piano, dancing, visiting museums, art, and discovering new foods and restaurants. Looking forward to tutoring!

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 weak areas. Many students improve 5-10 points or more by mastering test-specific strategies, understanding question patterns, and building confidence in timed conditions. The key is identifying whether you're struggling with logic games, reading comprehension, or logical reasoning—each requires different approaches—and having a tutor help you target those specific challenges.

Your first session focuses on understanding your baseline and goals. A tutor will review your recent practice test scores, identify which sections are holding you back, and discuss your target law schools and score. From there, you'll develop a personalized study plan that fits your timeline and learning style, whether that's intensive prep or a longer-term approach.

Logic games are one of the most technique-driven sections of the LSAT, which means they respond very well to targeted instruction. Tutors can teach you diagramming strategies, help you recognize game types quickly, and build your speed through deliberate practice. Many students who find logic games intimidating discover that with the right approach and consistent practice, this section becomes a strength.

LSAT reading comprehension requires a different approach than typical reading—it's about identifying argument structure, author perspective, and specific details rather than overall understanding. A tutor can teach you active reading techniques, help you develop a system for annotating passages, and practice with timed drills to build both accuracy and speed. Understanding question types and learning to predict answers before reading choices also makes a significant difference.

Timing challenges often come from spending too long on difficult questions or not having a strategic approach to which questions to tackle first. Tutors help you develop a pacing strategy tailored to your strengths—for example, some students should spend more time on logic games and less on reading, while others benefit from a different approach. Regular timed practice tests, combined with strategy adjustments, help you find a rhythm that maximizes your score.

Most students benefit from 3-4 months of consistent preparation, though this varies based on your starting score and target score. A typical schedule includes 15-20 hours per week of focused study, with practice tests every 1-2 weeks to track progress and identify weak areas. Your tutor can help you build a realistic schedule that balances work, school, or other commitments while ensuring you have enough time to master each section and build test-day confidence.

Test anxiety often stems from uncertainty about what to expect or feeling unprepared for specific question types. Working with a tutor builds confidence through familiarity—you'll practice under timed conditions repeatedly, learn what to expect on test day, and develop strategies for staying calm when you encounter a difficult question. Many students find that understanding the test format deeply and having a solid game plan significantly reduces anxiety.

Look for tutors who have scored well on the LSAT themselves, have experience teaching the test, and understand law school admissions. They should be able to explain not just the answers but the reasoning behind why certain approaches work. Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors who have deep knowledge of LSAT strategies and can adapt their teaching to your learning style and goals.
