Having earned a JD with a family law concentration and previously coached students through LSAT prep at a test prep agency, Amber knows this exam from both sides — as someone who conquered it and as someone who's taught others to do the same. She addresses all three sections with targeted strategies, from conditional logic diagrams to passage-mapping techniques, and builds timed practice into every session so test-day pacing feels natural.

I am a current third-year student at Virginia Commonwealth University. I am in the BS/MD Guaranteed Admissions program for Medicine at VCU, and I am majoring in Biology with a minor in Business and a minor in Dance. I am originally from Phoenix, Arizona and I have a passion for teaching. I have had lots of experience with tutoring and also in a large variety of subjects. I worked at a place called "The Tutoring Center" for 8 months where I had the opportunity to teach students aged 5 through 18 in varying levels of Math, English, and Writing. I have also been now tutoring with Varsity for nearly 2 years. While I tutor in a large variety of subjects, I am especially passionate about teaching Math, Chemistry, Biology, and also tutoring in Standardized Test prep such as for the SAT, PSAT, and ACT.
I am a sophomore electrical engineering student and member of the honors college at Virginia Commonwealth University. I recently graduated from Maggie L. Walker Governor's School in June of 2017. I have a passion for mathematics, especially calculus, and am excited to share my knowledge with others.
I am currently working on my Doctor of Pharmacy Degree from Virginia Commonwealth University, where I attained my undergraduate degree in Biochemistry. VCU is where I have held bioinorganic research positions as well as teaching positions. I acted as a teaching assistant in various chemistry and biology classes while studying and am currently an adjunct faculty teaching chemistry courses for the university. In addition to Varsity Tutors, I tutor for PCG education where I prepare students at J L Francis Elemetnary School for their mathematics SOLs. Throughout my different experiences with teaching and tutoring, I have found that each individual requires a different teaching style. Adjusting styles to accommodate different learning styles can be difficult at start, but overtime it helps the success of students to achieve their goals.
I am currently applying to medical schools in hopes of attending in the Fall of 2015. Helping my younger brother manage his genetic disorder, in addition to years of teaching special needs students at summer camp, has inspired me to pursue a career as a Pediatrician with a focus in Medical Genetics.
I am currently preparing to begin a Master's of Teaching program at VCU this fall and have continued to excel in the math and history courses I need to round out my teaching endorsements. Because my future career path focuses on teaching at the high school level, I have a preference for tutoring math (especially algebra through calculus) and history, along with writing and my current subject of philosophy. Besides my career motivations, I find that I stand out the most as a tutor in these areas because of my capability in clearly presenting complex material and my ability to grasp the diverse perspectives of my students.
I am a 19 year old student taking a year off from college to explore opportunities in the intersection between art and cognitive studies. I am currently residing in Los Angeles, but traveled from Charlottesville, Virginia where I was studying Cognitive Science and Studio Art at University of Virginia. I am patient, flexible, and love working with students in different subjects, but especially math. I prefer to cater the way I teach a student based on how they learn, whether it be by visuals, repetition, etc. I create methods that are out of the box if a student struggles with the way she/he are learning in school since school tends to teach in a uniform method rather than on an individualized basis.
I am a recent graduate of Virginia Commonwealth University, where I earned a Bachelors of Science in Biology. Throughout my three years of undergrad, I have been a preceptor for Cell Biology and Genetics. In addition, I was a supplemental instruction leader in CHEM 101 and CHEM 102. I am currently a Medical Scribe, but I will be attending VCOM for medical school starting Fall 2018.
I am an avid enthusiast for following your passions, no matter what they are. I enjoy teaching and spending time with others. I have a great vast amount of experience tutoring other peers, students, children, etc. I hope that I can help others reach their goals in learning!
I am currently a lead preschool teacher. I received my Bachelor's in Psychology from VCU and am looking to return to school to further my education. While in college, I worked as a Supplemental Instruction leader, teaching general biology and anatomy. I have also worked in an after school program with elementary age children, but I have my fondest memories volunteering as a counselor for Camp Kesem. In my own experience, I loved school and now I love teaching even more at all age levels! I especially enjoy the challenge of getting creative to discover what approach and mediums work best for each student. I am available for in person as well as online tutoring.
I am a graduate of Tufts University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in English as well as a minor in History. Since graduation, I have worked as a 7th grade Reading Language Arts teacher in Dallas Texas at a newly formed public all boys school. This has provided me with great experience and insight into how students best learn and how to create culturally responsive lessons that students will engage with. I am most passionate about English, Literature, History, and Spanish. In my experience, working to prepare students for state standardized tests has had the additional benefit of helping students to discover what they enjoy reading about. This increase in intrinsic motivation to read has had an important impact on struggling students. I am dedicated towards ensuring that students are provided with an education that increases their quality of life.
I am a two-time graduate of James Madison University in Harrisonburg, Virginia, receiving a bachelor's degree in English in 2008 and a master's degree in secondary education in 2009. Since graduation, I have worked teaching high school English and coaching wrestling in a relatively poor and rural district just south of Richmond. Though I am fully qualified and capable of tutoring any subject related to English, one of the things I have enjoyed the most success with as a teacher is preparation for standardized tests. I also very much enjoy teaching British literature and the writing process. There is no better feeling to me than seeing the gratitude in a student's face when he or she exceeds expectations and can go on to complete the next step in his or her educational journey. Outside of teaching, I am a rabid baseball fan (Let's go, Mets!), I love going to concerts, and I enjoy hanging out with my cats.

Frequently Asked Questions
Score improvement depends on your starting point and study commitment, but most students see meaningful gains with personalized instruction focused on their specific weak areas. Many students improve by 5-10 points or more when they work with a tutor to identify patterns in their mistakes, refine test-taking strategies, and practice under timed conditions. The key is targeting your individual challenges—whether that's logic games timing, reading comprehension accuracy, or logical reasoning question types—rather than generic test prep.
Your first session focuses on understanding where you stand and where you want to go. A tutor will likely review your practice test scores, discuss your target law schools and score goals, and identify which LSAT sections give you the most trouble. This diagnostic approach helps create a personalized study plan that addresses your specific needs, whether you need help with logic games strategy, reading comprehension pacing, or logical reasoning question types.
Logic games challenge most LSAT test-takers because they require both pattern recognition and speed under pressure. A tutor can teach you diagramming techniques tailored to different game types, help you recognize common setups quickly, and develop a pacing strategy so you don't waste time on difficult games. With targeted practice and feedback on your approach, you'll build the confidence and efficiency needed to handle this section consistently.
Most students benefit from taking 15-20 full-length practice tests spread throughout their study period, with your tutor helping you analyze mistakes after each one. The goal isn't just volume—it's using each test to identify patterns in your errors, refine your strategy, and build stamina for the actual exam. Your tutor can help you space these tests strategically and focus your study time on the question types where you're losing points.
Timing is one of the biggest LSAT challenges because you have roughly 8-9 minutes per logical reasoning question and about 35 minutes for the entire reading comprehension section. A tutor can help you develop a personalized pacing strategy based on your strengths—for example, tackling easier questions first to build confidence, or spending more time on logic games if that's your stronger section. With practice and feedback, you'll learn to balance accuracy with speed rather than rushing through sections.
Test anxiety often stems from feeling unprepared or uncertain about your approach, which personalized tutoring directly addresses. By working through practice tests with a tutor, receiving specific feedback, and building a clear strategy for each section, you'll develop genuine confidence in your preparation. Many students also benefit from discussing test-day logistics with a tutor—knowing what to expect, how to pace yourself, and having a backup plan for difficult moments can significantly reduce anxiety.
Look for tutors with strong LSAT scores themselves, experience helping students improve their scores, and deep knowledge of test structure and strategy across all three sections. Ideally, your tutor should have experience with different learning styles and be able to explain not just the right answer, but why other options are wrong. Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors who bring this combination of expertise and teaching skill to help you reach your goals.
Most students benefit from 2-4 months of focused LSAT preparation, with tutoring sessions ranging from 1-2 times per week depending on your timeline and starting score. Your tutor can help you create a study schedule that balances intensive practice with time to absorb strategies and review mistakes. The exact timeline depends on your target score and how much time you can dedicate to independent practice between sessions.
