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.

Violet
BA Brown University (transferring from the University of St Andrews)
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a member of the Brown Class of 2018, pursuing a bachelors degree in mathematics. I graduated from Phillips Exeter Academy in 2014. (I am able to help anyone with the boarding school admissions process.) Outside of academia, I pursue my passions in dance, travel, volunteering, reading and art. My tutoring subjects are mathematics (from elementary school to college level) and standardized testing (SAT, SAT subject tests, PSAT, and SSAT). I have tutored mainly high school students in the New York State Regents exams and AP Calculus, although I also have experience with students in middle and elementary school. Since I have been through many school systems, including public, private, studying abroad, and boarding school, I have learned many different techniques and can attack a problem from various angles. Ultimately, my teaching style is full of tips and tricks to break down complicated topics into simple, more understandable ideas.

Sharan
BA Cornell University
6+ Years Tutoring

I am a rising sophomore at Cornell University, studying Human Biology, Health and Society. I am on the premed track and am pursuing a minor in South Asian Studies. I was born in India and grew up in Singapore and Buffalo, NY, where I currently live. This past semester, I tutored middle and high school students in math, biology, and chemistry in Ithaca. I also particularly enjoy tutoring for standardized tests such as the ACT, as I feel it is where students are able to make a lot of progress quickly, and it also tends to be the most rewarding for both the students and for me! As someone who loves making organized and detailed plans, I believe having a clear set of goals for one's future is the key to success, and this can be applied to anything, from a single test to one's entire career. I would love to help my students with setting goals and making plans in their high school and/or college careers, in addition to tutoring a specific subject! In college, I am most involved with Cornell's Hindu Student Council and SPICMACAY, an Indian classical music and dance organization. Outside of academia, I sing South Indian classical music and play many different genres of the piano.

Vivian
BA Yale University
5+ Years Tutoring

I am currently pursuing a Master's degree in violin performance at the Juilliard School. I have tutored privately and through Chegg Tutoring, Varsity Tutors, PrepExpert, and iLearn World throughout high school and college, with most of my experience being in standardized test prep and English. The most fulfilling moments that I have with my students are when I see them applying previous lessons and skills to new challenges. I believe that a good teacher not only helps a student tackle specific, formulaic kinds of questions, but also imparts the skills necessary for adapting to the diverse intellectual challenges that life presents. My goal is always for my students to leave their sessions having learned something that will be useful for years to come, not just on the next test that they are preparing for. After all, education is a lifelong process!

Frequently Asked Questions

The Logical Reasoning section tests your ability to analyze arguments, identify logical flaws, and draw conclusions from written passages. You'll encounter two scored sections on test day, each with 24-26 questions that require you to read short arguments and answer questions about their structure, assumptions, and validity. This section is crucial because it makes up about two-thirds of your LSAT score, so mastering logical reasoning directly impacts your overall performance.

Many students struggle with pacing—the section requires careful reading and analysis under time pressure, which can lead to careless mistakes. Others find it difficult to identify the core argument and distinguish between relevant and irrelevant information, or they misunderstand question types like "weaken," "strengthen," and "necessary assumption." Personalized 1-on-1 instruction helps you pinpoint your specific weak areas, whether that's argument structure, conditional logic, or time management, so you can focus your practice strategically.

Score improvement depends on your starting point and commitment to practice, but students typically see meaningful gains—often 5-10 points on the 120-180 LSAT scale—within 4-8 weeks of focused work. The key is combining expert guidance on strategy and question types with consistent practice on real LSAT questions. A tutor helps you avoid common pitfalls, teaches you efficient approaches to each question type, and builds the confidence you need to perform under pressure.

Your first session typically includes a diagnostic assessment to identify your current skill level, strengths, and specific challenge areas—whether that's argument recognition, timing, or particular question types. From there, your tutor will work with you to develop a personalized study plan tailored to your timeline and goals. This foundation ensures every session afterward is focused and productive, rather than generic review.

Practice tests are essential because they simulate real test conditions and help you identify patterns in the types of arguments and questions that trip you up. Most students benefit from taking full practice tests every 1-2 weeks, then reviewing the Logical Reasoning sections with a tutor to understand why they missed questions and learn better approaches. This cycle of testing, review, and targeted practice is what drives real score improvement.

Effective pacing starts with understanding that not all questions take the same amount of time—some argument structures are faster to analyze than others. A tutor can teach you to quickly identify question types, recognize common argument patterns, and know when to spend extra time versus when to make an educated guess and move on. With practice, you'll develop an internal clock that lets you complete all questions with time to review, rather than rushing through the final questions.

The core question types include Necessary Assumption, Sufficient Assumption, Strengthen, Weaken, Main Point, Inference, and Flaw in Reasoning. Each type requires a slightly different analytical approach, and many students mix them up, leading to errors. Personalized instruction breaks down each type systematically, teaches you the specific strategies for each, and gives you plenty of practice so you can quickly recognize and tackle any question type on test day.

Look for tutors with strong LSAT scores themselves, proven experience teaching Logical Reasoning, and a track record of helping students improve. Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors who understand the nuances of argument analysis and have effective strategies for each question type. The best tutors combine subject expertise with the ability to explain complex concepts clearly and adapt their teaching to your learning style.
