...invaluable when I took the LSAT. I view my tutoring sessions as a partnership where the student and myself are working towards one goal: their acquisition of the skills, knowledge, and strategies necessary to succeed academically and enrich themselves personally. Frequently this means identifying weak foundational elements and building from there. Once these elements are identified, the learning process tends to be remarkably smooth and, dare I say, fun. In my spare time (I’m in...
