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.
As a licensed and practicing attorney in Georgia, Ryan has firsthand experience with the bar exam process — from the MBE's pattern-recognition demands to the essay sections where precise, structured legal writing separates passing scores from failing ones. His history degree and extensive background in persuasive writing and essay technique translate directly into coaching examinees on IRAC construction and issue-spotting under timed conditions. Rated 5.0 by students.
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.
As a passionate educator, I am dedicated to helping students excel in their Bar Exam preparation or in their classes! I earned a Management BBA from the University of Notre Dame, and my J.D. from Georgia State University. I have over two years of tutoring experience. I tutor in 1L subjects, bar prep, and technical writing. I believe in tailoring my approach to meet the needs of each student, including proceeding at the rhythm and tempo the student needs. My approach includes focusing on the Black Letter Law, strategizing, learning how to gather and understand performance data, and preparing for what to expect on Exam Days!
I've always loved learning, which naturally led me to tutoring. I began tutoring peers and younger students in high school and continued throughout college, law school, and after graduation while working as a NY corporate attorney. My experience includes students of all ages, from kindergartners through adult learners, including those needing specialized academic support or education planning. With a background in math and science and a legal career centered on research, writing, analysis, and counseling, I focus on math, law, academic coaching, and exam preparation. In particular, I enjoy supporting elementary and middle school students, helping high school students with academic planning and college preparation, and preparing students for the SAT, ACT, GRE, LSAT, and UBE (NY Bar Exam). I've worked remotely throughout my career, so I'm comfortable using virtual learning platforms and adapting to each student's individual needs.
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.

Frequently Asked Questions
Oklahoma's Bar Exam tests knowledge across multiple subjects including contracts, torts, criminal law, civil procedure, evidence, constitutional law, and professional responsibility. The exam typically includes multiple-choice questions (MBE) and essay questions (MEE) that assess both foundational legal knowledge and practical application. Success requires mastery of both substantive law and the ability to analyze complex fact patterns under time pressure.
Most bar candidates struggle with time management across the vast amount of material, distinguishing between high-yield and low-yield topics, and applying legal principles to unfamiliar fact patterns. Many also find it difficult to maintain consistent study momentum over several months while balancing other responsibilities. Personalized tutoring helps identify your specific weak areas and creates a targeted study plan rather than trying to master everything equally.
Bar prep courses provide broad coverage of all tested subjects, but personalized tutoring focuses specifically on your individual gaps and learning style. A tutor can spend extra time on areas where you're struggling, help you develop essay-writing strategies tailored to how you think, and provide practice feedback on your actual answers. This targeted approach helps you use study time more efficiently and build confidence in weaker subject areas.
Most bar candidates benefit from 8-12 weeks of focused preparation, though the right timeline depends on your law school performance and how much time you can dedicate to studying. Those who struggled with certain subjects in law school may need additional time to build foundational knowledge. Working with a tutor early in your preparation helps you assess your baseline and create a realistic study schedule tailored to your needs.
Your first session focuses on understanding your background, assessing your current knowledge level, and identifying which subjects or question types are most challenging for you. The tutor may review your practice test results or have you work through sample questions to pinpoint specific areas needing attention. From there, you'll develop a personalized study plan that prioritizes high-impact topics and aligns with your exam date.
Yes—essay writing is one of the most valuable areas for personalized tutoring. A tutor can teach you how to spot legal issues quickly, organize your analysis clearly, and write concisely under exam conditions. They'll review your practice essays, identify patterns in your mistakes, and help you develop a consistent approach to structuring answers that examiners reward.
MBE success requires both strong substantive knowledge and strategic test-taking skills. Tutors help you understand why correct answers work and why you're drawn to wrong choices, identify which subjects need deeper study, and develop time management strategies so you can answer all questions confidently. Many students improve significantly by focusing on question patterns and learning to eliminate distractors efficiently.
