Cristino
BA New York University
1+ Years Tutoring

I am excited to tutor because I know what it feels like to get stuck and I'm happy to help people who encounter challenges in their studies. Though frustrating, there's something really valuable about these moments when you're not quite getting it. It means that by proceeding slowly and practicing a new concept or strategy you'll learn a new skill that will stick with you even more because it took some work to master. My focus in teaching is in French and, more broadly, language arts. I studied French Literature at New York University because of my passion for literature, creativity, and expression. Learning a new language opens up more than just a new literary world but also lets you tap into another set of human experiences, expression, emotion, history. I think the greatest reward in teaching French and language arts is helping a student connect with a text and gain access to someone else's experience, what someone else thought important enough to write down, and then how this connection can help reframe the reader's thinking - deepening, challenging, or shifting the ways our own thought. Apart from the study and appreciation of literature, learning a language at a linguistic level is invaluable. It promotes human connection, openness of thought, and pushes one's own capacity and diversity of self-expression.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Score improvement depends on your starting point and how consistently you apply targeted strategies. Most students see meaningful gains—typically 3-5 points on the Logical Reasoning section—within 4-8 weeks of focused instruction, though some improve more with sustained practice. A tutor helps you identify which question types trip you up most and builds a personalized study plan that addresses your specific weak spots rather than generic test prep.

Students typically struggle with three main areas: identifying the argument's conclusion versus supporting premises, understanding the logical structure of complex reasoning, and recognizing common fallacies like circular reasoning or false causation. Many also rush through questions and miss subtle wording that changes the answer, or they spend too long on difficult questions and run out of time. Personalized tutoring helps you slow down strategically, build pattern recognition for question types, and develop a consistent approach that works under pressure.

Pacing struggles usually stem from either spending too long analyzing arguments or second-guessing correct answers. Expert tutors teach you to skim efficiently for the argument's core claim, predict what the answer should look like before reading choices, and recognize when to move on versus when to slow down. Practice with timed drills—starting with untimed work to build accuracy, then gradually adding time pressure—helps you develop intuition for which questions deserve more attention based on difficulty.

A typical session starts by reviewing practice questions you've struggled with, identifying patterns in your mistakes, and discussing the underlying reasoning concepts. Your tutor then teaches or reinforces a specific strategy—like how to diagram conditional logic or spot a strengthen-the-argument trap—and you practice immediately with new problems. Sessions often include timed drills to build speed and confidence, plus a focused homework assignment that targets your weakest question types before your next session.

Full-length practice tests are essential because they reveal how you perform under real test conditions—including stamina, pacing across all three sections, and how anxiety affects your accuracy. Most test-takers benefit from taking 5-10 full practice tests before test day. A tutor helps you analyze your practice test results to spot patterns (Are you making careless mistakes? Running out of time? Struggling with specific question types?), then creates a targeted study plan to address those patterns rather than reviewing material randomly.

The LSAT's Logical Reasoning section tests about 10 core question types—strengthen the argument, weaken the argument, assumption, flaw, parallel reasoning, and others—each with distinct strategies. Rather than memorizing rules, expert tutors teach you to recognize the question type from its wording, understand what the test makers are testing, and apply a consistent method. Drilling each type separately builds fluency, then mixing them trains you to quickly identify which approach to use under time pressure.

Test anxiety often stems from uncertainty—not knowing if your approach is right or whether you'll finish on time. Personalized tutoring builds confidence by giving you proven strategies, showing you exactly where your weak spots are, and letting you practice those scenarios repeatedly until they feel automatic. As you see your practice test scores improve and realize you can handle difficult questions, anxiety naturally decreases. Your tutor also helps you develop a pre-test routine and mental strategies to stay calm when you encounter a tough question.

Look for tutors with strong LSAT scores themselves (typically 170+), proven experience teaching Logical Reasoning specifically, and the ability to explain complex reasoning in clear, simple terms. They should be able to diagnose your specific challenges quickly and teach you strategies, not just review answers. Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors in Staten Island who have deep LSAT knowledge and a track record of helping students improve their scores—you can discuss their experience and teaching style before your first session to ensure it's a good fit.
