I am a junior studying Writing for Screen and Television at the University of Southern California's School of Cinematic Arts. For the past two spring semesters I worked as a CollegeSpring Mentor, tutoring Green Dot Charter high school juniors for the SAT and teaching them predatory skills for college. In addition to my experience tutoring for the SAT, as a screenwriting major I most enjoy teaching my favorite subject, English. I love showing students the power language endows upon them to communicate their ideas and beliefs with others. I believe every student deserves the chance to succeed and to try to capitalize on their strengths while encouraging them to improve in areas they may traditionally find challenging. Endowing a student with confidence in themselves through patience and support is the best way not only to improve academic performance, but also transform them into lifelong learners. I try to share not only my passion for knowledge with students, but also my love of sports (football, baseball, and softball), action films, and global affairs. Seeing students not only improve academically but also show improved confidence and happiness is the most rewarding part of my job.

I am a BS/MS student at Columbia University studying Electrical engineering and also following the premed curriculum. After my undergraduate, I hope to pursue an MD-PhD and work in a teaching/research hospital as a physician-engineer.
I'm a recent graduate of the California Institute of Technology in Economics and Computer Science. I was also accepted at Harvard, Princeton, MIT, and Stanford. I have a broad range of interests spanning science, math, engineering, social science, the humanities, the arts, and athletics (I also played on the Caltech basketball team). My background allows me to tutor general college prep, especially the SAT, ACT and the GRE. I love to teach analytical thinking, ranging from advanced Math and Physics to strategies for understanding literature and developing arguments.
I'm Arian. I graduated from Wesleyan University with degrees in English and Environmental Studies, with a focus on creative writing. For my senior thesis, I wrote a 50-page epic poem that intertwined the geobiological evolution of the earth with my family history.
I'm a New York transplant to LA, and a freelance composer and musician by nature. I am an artist and a teacher-- these are my two passions! I'm also a translator, linguistics nerd, avid reader, and fabulous teacher. I went to NYU and studied Linguistics, and am continuing my studies for an Applied Linguistics Masters here in California.
I am a recent graduate of the University of Virginia living in Los Angeles. While at UVA, I earned a 3.95 GPA and graduated my major program with Highest Distinction. I have eight years of tutoring experience (including starting my own tutoring program) and have worked with students of all ages. I'm looking forward to helping people with their studies in any way I can.
I'm Jerome and I hope I can help in your academic journey. As someone who's received tutoring before, I hope I can help students, not only learn the subject matter, but the study and thinking skills to succeed academically. By learning the skills, you can gain the confidence to pursue other endeavors. Don't give up. Ask for help. We'll succeed together.
I'm an undergraduate at UC Berkeley with two years currently under my belt and the intention to double major in anthropology and biology. My focus is on understanding human biological and social origins through analysis of human artifacts, biological remains, and environmental reconstruction, with a parallel interest in preservation strategies. Outside of academics, I'm passionate about all manner of developing sciences and technologies as well as current events and the history behind them.
I am a recent graduate of New York University's Tisch School of the Arts where I received my B.F.A. in Drama with a minor in Applied Theatre. During my time at NYU, I studied at the Atlantic Acting School and the Experimental Theatre Wing, sang in a choir called Drama Cantorum, and co-founded a nationally-ranked improv team called Captain Soldier. I also spent an unforgettable semester abroad at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa. Nowadays, I work with a theatre company called Grey Room NYC and a non-profit organization called Leave Out Violence. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, playing and watching basketball (Go Bulls!), enjoying funny television shows (Louie is my favorite), and playing music (guitar & piano).
I am currently a sophomore at NYU studying English and Journalism. However, I can help with almost any subject, including math and science, as I took advanced-level courses and 13 AP tests in high school. I have years of experience tutoring students of all ages, from elementary school through high school. In my spare time, I enjoy playing the violin, reading, and writing. I live in New York City during the academic year (September - May) and would be happy to tutor in-person (depending on the travel distance) then. Of course, if you/your child is more comfortable with online tutoring, I can tutor online year-round. Thanks for dropping by, and I hope to work with you/your child soon!
I am currently a doctoral student at the University of Southern California, and I completed earlier degrees at the Juilliard School in New York and at La Sierra University in Riverside, CA. At La Sierra as an undergrad, I received dual degrees with honors in violin and mathematics, both of which have led me to teaching opportunities. In tutoring either field, I enjoy the constant adaptation of finding an approach suited to each student that will help them achieve their goals. Both mathematics and music are often considered to be innate talents, but being able to assist students of any background in gaining proficiency is an exciting opportunity for me and a fulfilling one when it happens. Beyond mathematics, I also welcome tutoring opportunities in Chemistry and especially Physics, with it's mathematical foundation.
I am willing to invest the amount of time needed to polishing developing writers and students so that they come away with more than just a corrected essay or some more grammar knowledge; I am seeking to help them hear their own voice in their writing and bring that with them to the next step in their careers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Logical Reasoning questions test your ability to analyze arguments, spot logical flaws, and draw conclusions under time pressure. The biggest challenges students face are: misreading question stems (which fundamentally changes what you're being asked), confusing correlation with causation, and struggling with the pace—you typically have about 1.5 minutes per question. Many students also find it hard to distinguish between weakening arguments, strengthening arguments, and identifying assumptions, since these question types require different analytical approaches.
Effective pacing starts with understanding that not all questions are created equal—some argument structures are inherently easier to analyze than others. Many students benefit from learning to quickly identify question type (assumption, weaken, strengthen, etc.) and then applying a targeted strategy rather than reading every answer choice equally. Practicing with timed drills on specific question types helps you build speed without sacrificing accuracy, and many students find that skipping a truly difficult question and returning to it later is more effective than getting stuck and rushing through easier questions.
Score improvement depends on your starting point and how much you practice, but most students see measurable gains within 4-8 weeks of focused work. If you're scoring in the 140s-150s range, jumping 5-10 points is realistic with targeted instruction on your specific weak areas. Students starting lower often see larger improvements because there's more foundational work to do, while students aiming for 170+ typically need intensive practice on the hardest questions and near-perfect consistency.
Your first session typically focuses on assessment and strategy. A tutor will likely have you work through a few Logical Reasoning questions to understand your current approach, identify where you're making mistakes (timing issues, misreading questions, weak argument analysis), and pinpoint which question types give you the most trouble. From there, you'll develop a personalized study plan that targets your specific weaknesses rather than generic test prep.
Practice tests are essential for two reasons: they help you identify patterns in your mistakes and build stamina for test day. However, blindly taking full tests without analysis won't improve your score much. The real value comes from reviewing your wrong answers to understand why you missed them—did you misread the question, misanalyze the argument, or just run out of time? Tutors typically recommend a mix of targeted drills on specific question types and full-section practice tests to monitor your progress.
Look for tutors who have strong LSAT scores themselves and can clearly explain the logic behind correct and incorrect answers—not just tell you what the right answer is. They should understand the nuances of different question types and be able to diagnose whether your mistakes stem from timing, strategy, or fundamental misunderstanding. Ideally, they'll customize their approach to your learning style rather than applying a one-size-fits-all method, and they should be able to teach you the reasoning process, not just memorize patterns.
Test anxiety often peaks during Logical Reasoning because the section feels abstract and time pressure is real. Building confidence comes from two paths: first, practicing enough that you develop genuine skill and trust your process, and second, learning to manage the mental side through techniques like controlled breathing, positive self-talk, and having a clear strategy for when you get stuck. Many students find that knowing they can skip a question and come back to it reduces panic significantly, and practicing under timed conditions helps normalize the pressure.
Start by categorizing your practice test errors by question type (assumption, weaken, strengthen, flaw, etc.) rather than just looking at your overall score. Track which types you miss most frequently and which ones consistently take you longer. A tutor can help you dig deeper—sometimes a low accuracy rate on a particular question type reveals a conceptual gap, while a slow time rate on the same type might mean you need a faster analytical process. Once you've identified your pattern, you can drill those specific questions until they become your strength.
