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.

MS Simmons College • BA Washington University in St. Louis
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a graduate of Washington University in St Louis, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in History with minors in Humanities and Anthropology. Since graduation, I have worked as a tutor, teacher, and director of tutors at a charter public middle school in Boston. During this time I also received my Masters in Mild to Moderate Disabilities from Simmons College. I have worked extensively with students with a range of abilities, including students with specific learning disabilities, emotional impairments, dyslexia, and ADHD. My teaching experience has given me a deep understanding of the knowledge and habits essential to academic success and has given me the opportunity to hone a variety of strategies that ensure students at each level can achieve their academic goals. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, my favorite ones are Reading, Elementary/Middle School Math, History, and Test Prep. In my experience, tutoring is the most rewarding when a student has that "aha!" moment and achieves a new level of understanding and confidence in his/her abilities. I am a firm believer in the transformative power of education, and I see my role to be that of a facilitator and coach who is there to help the student reach his/her goals through individualized support and rigorous practice. In my free time, I enjoy reading, running, practicing my Spanish, and discovering new music. I am also an avid traveler and just got back from a 3 month trip to South America. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you!

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.

Charles
BA Yale University
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a junior Mechanical Engineering major at Yale, and I hope to become a Naval Aviator after college. I am also a varsity sailor, and enjoy playing music with friends when I can get some free time. I have been tutoring my fellow students throughout my entire academic career, and I would best describe my tutoring style as one that adapts to each students' needs. For example, I have always tried to frame questions in a different way so that the student can better understand the question. Some students need visual representations of numbers and systems to understand them, and others benefit more by understanding the concepts behind each formula. I prefer to tutor in math and physics, and especially with real world application problems. I hope to help students improve their standardized test scores and their understanding of the math and sciences so that they can achieve their academic goals!

Frequently Asked Questions

The Maryland Bar Exam tests your knowledge across multiple subjects including Civil Procedure, Constitutional Law, Contracts, Criminal Law, Criminal Procedure, Evidence, Real Property, Torts, and Professional Responsibility. The exam consists of the Multistate Bar Examination (MBE)—200 multiple-choice questions—and the Maryland essay portion. Personalized tutoring helps you identify knowledge gaps in specific subject areas and develop strategies tailored to your learning style, rather than following a one-size-fits-all classroom approach. A tutor can focus intensive preparation on your weakest areas while reinforcing strong subjects efficiently.

Most bar exam candidates begin structured preparation 8-12 weeks before their exam date, though this varies based on your law school experience and confidence level. Many students benefit from starting tutoring 10-12 weeks out to establish a strategic study plan, focus on high-difficulty topics early, and build confidence through practice questions and essay writing. If you're struggling with specific subjects or MBE performance, starting tutoring earlier—or intensifying sessions closer to exam day—can make a significant difference in your final score.

Maryland's essay questions require you to analyze fact patterns and apply substantive law under time pressure—very different from multiple-choice reasoning. Effective preparation involves writing timed essays under realistic conditions, receiving detailed feedback on your analysis and writing structure, and refining your approach based on what's working. Personalized tutoring is particularly valuable here because a tutor can review your essays, identify gaps in legal reasoning, suggest better organizational strategies, and help you develop faster, more efficient writing patterns that work specifically for your thinking style.

Many bar exam candidates underestimate the MBE because it's not just about knowing the law—it's about understanding how to apply legal concepts to complex, multi-layered fact patterns quickly and accurately. Common struggles include misreading questions, overthinking simple issues, or missing critical details in fact patterns. Tutoring helps by teaching you question-analysis strategies, building pattern recognition through targeted practice, and identifying your specific error patterns (rushing, second-guessing, confusion in particular subject areas). With focused practice and feedback, students typically see meaningful score improvements within 4-6 weeks.

Bar exam preparation while managing work or other responsibilities requires a strategic, efficient study plan—not just more hours. Tutors help by designing condensed study schedules that maximize your limited time, prioritizing high-impact topics and practice methods, and helping you avoid common time-wasters like passive reading or unproductive outline reviewing. Rather than trying to study 40 hours a week, focused 1-on-1 instruction can deliver better results through 15-20 hours of intentional, strategically planned preparation with accountability and regular progress assessment.

Look for tutors who have recently passed the Maryland Bar Exam (or have deep experience with it), understand both the MBE and Maryland-specific essay requirements, and can teach you how to think like a lawyer under pressure—not just memorize rules. The best tutors combine strong legal knowledge with an ability to explain complex concepts clearly, adapt their teaching to your learning style, and identify your specific weak points. Experience with bar exam preparation is essential; a tutor should be able to show you proven strategies for question analysis, time management, and essay writing that actually work on test day.

Score improvements depend on where you're starting and how consistently you engage with tutoring, but students typically see meaningful gains when they combine focused tutoring with disciplined practice. Many students improve their practice MBE scores by 15-25 points through targeted instruction and error pattern analysis. For essays, tutors help you move from scattered analysis to organized, high-scoring responses. The Maryland Bar Exam passing score is around 75% (the specific score converts annually), and personalized instruction significantly increases your likelihood of reaching that threshold by addressing your specific knowledge gaps and test-taking weaknesses.
