Andrew
Certified Bar Exam Tutor
Andrew
PhD Boston University • BA Massachusetts Institute of Technology
1+ Years Tutoring

Bar prep is as much a project management challenge as an intellectual one — hundreds of rules across dozens of subjects, all tested in different formats. Andrew's law PhD and his cross-disciplinary study background mean he can map out a structured MBE and essay prep plan while drilling the black-letter law in areas like torts, evidence, and civil procedure.

Kerry practiced law for three years at a major D.C. firm after graduating magna cum laude from Michigan Law, so she's been through the bar exam process herself and understands the MBE, MEE, and MPT from both sides. She breaks down the difference between knowing the law and applying it under timed pressure — especially in areas like Constitutional Law, Evidence, and Contracts where the examiners love to test nuance.

Ella
BA University
10+ Years Tutoring

I like learning anything new and enjoy reading, but I'm not fond of school. I made good grades only when the subject interested me. However, I have always done very, very well on standardized tests, probably because I read so much. I was a National Merit finalist and my LSAT score was in the 99th percentile. In today's system, that is about a 174. I attended law school at the University of Houston, graduated, passed the Texas bar with a decent score of 83, and practiced law for a long time. I quit practicing law when I moved to a small town in Central Texas. I began tutoring about a few years ago and discovered that I truly enjoy the intellectual challenge of tutoring and the opportunity to interact with a lot of bright, hard-working students. I had never tutored or taught before, so I read lots of study guides and picked out suggestions and tactics that made sense to me. I look for multiple ways to illustrate concepts because everyone understands information differently. My work with students is based on my experience, what I have studied, and feedback from my students. I think that tackling a problem directly is usually faster than looking for a trick or shortcut. I also help students with their applications and enjoy tutoring in writing and similar topics.

Paige
MS University of Minnesota • BA Carleton College
1+ Years Tutoring

Teaching in various capacities since 2003, I combine legal expertise (class rank: top 20) and proven test strategies (UBE: 320, MPRE: 108) with compassion and creativity to elevate your legal acumen from good to great. With a law degree summa cum laude (Mitchell Hamline), a master's in public health (University of Minnesota), and an undergraduate degree magna cum laude from a top 10 liberal arts college (Carleton College), I have worked with K-12, college, graduate, and law students in 1:1, group, and classroom settings. My legal communication skills are second to none: I earned top oralist marks at the Philip C. Jessup International Law Moot Court Competition (the world's largest), provided strategic communications coaching to litigators in big tobacco cases, served as law journal writer and editor, and placed top-of-class in legal research & writing courses. Professionally, I've spent two decades in public affairs, government funding (grants, contracts), and sponsored research.

Reid
PhD Harvard University • BA Wesleyan University
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a graduate of Wesleyan University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with High Honors. With eight years of experience working in education, I've tutored students in math, science, history, and English, as well as helped students prepare for standardized tests. I've guided adults towards passing the US Citizenship Exam and taught English in India, where I lived for six months. Whenever I work with a student I personalize the lessons to fit their particular learning style, since I know every student is unique and having the right fit can make all the difference in making learning fun and effective. My strengths are tutoring the social sciences and humanities, as well as making math and standardized tests approachable to students that normally don't like those subjects. In my spare time I like traveling, spending time in the outdoors (climbing & backpacking), meditation, and playing soccer. Next fall I will be beginning my PhD in Education at Harvard University.

Christopher
BA Harvard College
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a rising sophomore at Harvard College and am about to declare as a Mechanical Engineering concentrator, working towards a Bachelor of Science degree. I've always enjoyed sharing my knowledge with my peers and those around me and have done so in both formal and informal settings. I've been a tutor for both Math and Spanish programs in high school and enjoyed the strides I made with students. I am willing to tutor any subject I have a background in, but am strong in mathematics, the sciences, Spanish, history, writing, and ACT prep. I enjoy teaching mathematics most due to the joy I can see in children once they master a topic and can answer even pointed questions meant to stump them, and maybe even put their knowledge to real world use. As a tutor, I like to give a strong foundation to orient my student, and then gradually grant them more freedom and independence until they can feel themselves grasp the concept, pointing out pitfalls or common errors along the way; teachers who used these methods on me always left the most lasting impressions. Outside of my studies, I really enjoy listening to music, both old favorites and new interests, reading classics, and gaming/playing basketball with my friends.

Frequently Asked Questions

Bar Exam preparation focuses on mastering the Multistate Bar Examination (MBE), Arizona-specific essay questions, and the Multistate Performance Test (MPT). Personalized tutoring helps you develop a strategic study plan, identify weak subject areas, and practice high-yield exam techniques tailored to Arizona's bar requirements.

Your first session focuses on understanding your background, assessing your current knowledge across bar exam subjects, and identifying your specific challenge areas—whether that's mastering complex subjects like Evidence or Constitutional Law, improving essay writing speed, or building confidence with MBE practice questions. This diagnostic helps create a personalized study roadmap aligned with your timeline and learning style.

Most test-takers struggle with time management across 200+ MBE questions, synthesizing multiple subjects under pressure, and developing concise essay answers that hit key legal principles. Personalized instruction helps you practice under timed conditions, master high-yield topics specific to Arizona, and build test-taking strategies that improve both accuracy and confidence.

While bar prep courses provide broad curriculum coverage, personalized tutoring adapts to your specific needs—focusing extra time on subjects where you're struggling, drilling your weak question types, and refining your essay approach. One-on-one instruction allows you to ask questions in real-time, get immediate feedback on practice answers, and adjust your study strategy based on actual performance data.

Most bar candidates study for 8-12 weeks leading up to the exam, though the ideal timeline depends on your background and how much time you can dedicate weekly. Personalized tutoring accelerates learning by targeting your specific gaps rather than reviewing material you already know, helping you use study time more efficiently.

The MBE covers Constitutional Law, Contracts, Criminal Law, Evidence, Real Property, Torts, and Civil Procedure. Arizona's essay portion adds state-specific topics and requires deep knowledge of these core areas. A tutor can help you allocate study time strategically—focusing more heavily on subjects worth more points and areas where you need the most reinforcement.

Effective MBE preparation involves understanding the rules deeply, practicing with real exam questions, analyzing why you miss questions, and developing faster pattern recognition. Personalized tutoring helps you identify whether you're missing questions due to rule gaps, misreading fact patterns, or time pressure—then targets practice to address your specific weakness.

Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors experienced in Arizona Bar Exam preparation. You can get matched with a tutor who understands Arizona-specific requirements, has a track record helping candidates pass, and fits your schedule and learning style. Simply tell us about your timeline and goals, and we'll help you find the right fit.
