I am working with students, I seek to help them achieve a mastery of the subject that will stay with them for the rest of their lives and serve as strong foundation for their future intellectual endeavors. I was fortunate to have many fine teachers and appreciate what their talents helped me achieve. Now I seek to live up to that example and impart that same curiosity and thoughtfulness to the students I am fortunate enough to tutor.

I am not teaching or grading papers, I can usually be found playing some brass instrument or another, umpiring baseball, trying out a new recipe in the kitchen, or spending far too much time on Netflix.
I am looking to get some more experience tutoring and teaching with the idea of pursuing further academic work in the future.
I'm an undergraduate student at Yale University, with a prospective double major in Mathematics and History. I strive to bring students toward their lightbulb moments not by repeating facts until they're drilled in, but by helping my students understand precisely why the laws of science, the rules of grammar, and the events of history are the way they are, and by lifting the curtain on the intricacies of the subject matter. I believe that learning is, and ought to be, for its own sake.
Heading to UCLA School of Law after finishing her MBA at Yale, Christina treats the LSAT the way she treats every standardized test — as a system to decode. She breaks down Logical Reasoning stimuli by argument structure, teaching students to spot assumption gaps and sufficient-vs-necessary flaws before even looking at the answer choices. Her 4.8 rating and genuine love for test strategy make her especially effective for students who want a methodical approach to raising their score.
I am a senior at the University of New Haven working on a B.S. in Forensic Science-Biology with a Pre-Medical designation who hopes to go to medical school in the future. I am most passionate about biology and chemistry but have a strong personal interest in history, especially topics overlooked in the past study of history. To me, learning is a life long process and leads to the development of a well-rounded individual. Seeing understanding of a difficult topic and creating enthusiasm for learning is what draws me to tutoring.
I'm currently a PhD student in economics at Yale University. I also have a BS in physics and math from Yale. Other subjects I enjoy are history, geography, and philosophy, and I dabble in photography and baking. I enjoy helping people understand tricky concepts and solve challenging problems, academic and otherwise.
I'm a senior at Yale College where I study Economics. I'm originally from Millburn, NJ.
I am a freshman at Yale University, hailing originally from Seattle in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. I believe that education is one of the most fundamental aspects of a society's wellbeing, and that it is the duty of those of us who have been graced with the advantages of a good education to give back in some way; one of my motivations for tutoring is to do my part in that way.
I am a Yale University Berkeley College graduate of the Yale Class of 2012 with an Intensive B.S. in Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology. Eager for tutoring opportunities, I welcome any of you who wishes to undergo SAT/PSAT or ACT Test Preparation that will get you the scores you need for admission to the college of your choice. As for my experience, I have tutoring experience in both one-to-one settings, going as far back as high school, and group/classroom settings, especially from my 4 years of tutoring with Yale MATHCOUNTS. As a likely future graduate student myself, it is my general goal in life to continue the tradition of passing forth knowledge. Not surprisingly, I have always considered tutoring and education among the most noble of professions where both parties, student and teacher, benefit and learn. What makes me an excellent tutor? Over the course of my life I have had the good fortune of cultivating a variety and number of skill sets, some of which are academic and social in nature. While I certainly consider academic prowess important for the success of any instructor, I would say the most important skill set I have developed is that of adaptability. If a tutor can adapt him/herself to the mode and manner of thinking of another, the tutor, as well as the tutor's audience, will have especially effective and enriching transactions.
I am an undergraduate business student at Babson College. For years, I have tutored a variety of subjects from writing to accounting. In high school, I participated in volunteer tutoring through the National Honors Society. Even other involvements, such as coaching the debate team, taught me how to convey information and reach understanding with others. As a college student, I am paid to tutor Accounting and teach entrepreneurship and often find myself running study groups among peers.
I am a rising senior at Wesleyan University pursuing a Bachelor of Arts degree in Government and Latin American Studies. I have extensive experience with Spanish-language coursework and tutoring: I spent a semester one-on-one tutoring a high school student in beginning Spanish, have taken countless university-level Spanish classes, have taken both the Language and Literature AP Spanish tests, and have traveled and lived abroad in Spanish-speaking countries.
I am an undergraduate student at the University of Chicago majoring in Classics and Theatre. However, my college uses the core curriculum and as a result, I've had a well-rounded, eclectic education covering everything from math to fine arts. I've won awards in community service, dance, and film, but most notably, 20 writing prizes before I reached eighteen. I was a National Merit Semi-Finalist in high school and I've had a passion for education and the art of learning since I was a child. I hope to instill in my students the love of amassing knowledge, excelling in your studies, and walking out of a test feeling like you rocked it. I especially had a passion for the Critical Reading and the Writing portions of the SAT's and the SAT 2 in Literature. I have teaching experience with everything from stand-up comedy to Emergency Medical Services to tap dancing, and I've been told that I am unmatched in my enthusiasm. In my free time, I like to perform sketch and improv comedy, dance, play the banjo, and volunteer in my local hospital.
I am a junior at Southern Connecticut State University where I recently transferred to study Exercise Science after completing my first two years at Yale University. I have extensive experience tutoring the SAT/ACT, but my favorite subject to tutor is math. Though it can be a daunting subject for many students, I strive to make math accessible and even enjoyable. In my spare time I enjoy weight training and spoken word poetry.
I am a Yale University graduate with professional teaching experience at the college level. I know the SAT Writing and Reading sections like the back of my hand, and I know English, writing, and history as subjects just the same, but what I know most is how stressful and daunting the college admissions process can be. I am most passionate about helping you succeed in your school and test prep endeavors and to do that, I will teach you the test taking methods, study habits and study tricks that work best for you individually. No cookie-cutters tactics, no frustration. I am here to instruct, support, build confidence, encourage, and most of all, to be a patient guide in getting you where you want to be.
I am a Columbia University graduate who majored in Political Science, Classics and History. I have also spent the last year as an English teacher in Connecticut.
I am always happy to talk about music, composing, Seinfeld, and ice cream.
I am a published novelist and a graduate of one of the most prestigious law schools in California. I have been a staff member on a presidential campaign, and I have been around the world. I am enthusiastic about learning, and about communicating my knowledge. I get along with almost everyone and I have outstanding morals, ethics and values.
I am a PHD student studying environmental science. While my research focus is on microbial ecology, I have broad tutoring experience, ranging from teaching reading and math skills to elementary school students, tutoring middle school students in English and writing, and teaching biology to college students as a course assistant. I tutor in two main areas, literacy skills and biology, and teach from a middle school to GRE level both subject areas. One passionate teacher, who valued hard work over talent, inspired me to become a scientist and I hope that I can be that teacher for another student.
I'm a curious person, an avid guitar player, and a dedicated Wikipedia reader. I currently am in the process of learning piano, stock trading, machine learning, and the basics of Python programming. I also like playing video games with friends, reading, listening to (and attempting to make) music, and traveling.
I'm a teacher living in New Haven, Connecticut. I grew up in CT before going to Smith College where I studied European history and education. I spent my junior year abroad in Paris, France and fell in love with the city and its history so much that I moved there after college to get my master's degree from the Sorbonne in early modern French history. While I was there, I tutored students of all ages in English and I taught English conversation to French high school students. Then I joined Teach for America and moved back to the states, where I've taught ancient history to 5th graders for the last two years. I'm fluent in French and scored a C2 (highest level) on the Test de Connaissance du franais. I love tutoring test prep, history and French. In my free time, I like to hike, cook and ski.
I am a Junior at Yale University studying Psychology and Education Studies. I am very passionate about working with kids and pursuing a career in teaching, and my main goal is to help students achieve their full potential!
I am an honors program scholar graduate of Central Connecticut State University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics and graduated from the University's School of Education. Throughout my time in school and since I graduated, I have tutored countless students of all ages in math in groups and individually. I have also worked in math classrooms alongside teachers assisting the students. I have also worked with students who needed help with their SAT prep. I have experience working with students who are younger and also students who are in college and I greatly enjoy working with any topics within mathematics. My favorite math topics to tutor are pre-algebra, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, pre-calculus, but I like to work with all other topics as well. I choose to tutor because I would like to make a difference in the lives of the students I work with and help them, just as others have helped me throughout my school career. Outside of tutoring, I coach soccer and have done so for many years, I like to listen to music, and I enjoy cooking.
I love participating in learning with other people. This is why I have been a high school teacher for 20 years and why I am a tutor now. One of my major skills as a tutor is breaking down skills and concepts into small parts to identify exactly where someone is struggling. I can do this with organization and learning needs, too, not just math and English content. I am also versatile and flexible; I can work on all sorts of content and handle unknown problems. I can teach you how to do that, too. I also have a great deal of experience working with students with special needs. I have been trained in some workshops, but I have only experience, not a license, in this area.
I'm a huge Red Sox fan and love watching detective shows when I have free time.
I am happy to accommodate and work with learners on the spectrum.
I am an interdisciplinary educator with an Ed.M. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and a B.A. from Dartmouth College. My background is primarily in integrated arts learning and museum education and I specialize in visual arts, history and art history, and object-based learning. In all subjects, I take a creative, inquiry-based and learner-centered approach, designing opportunities for each unique individual to meet their learning goals.
I'm Anna! I'm currently a student in the MD/MBA program between Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine and the Kellogg School of Management, and graduated from Northwestern University as part of the Honors Program in Medical Education. I attended the Bergen County Academies in New Jersey, a selective, application-based magnet school, for high school.
I am a recent graduate from a masters program in biostatistics at Columbia University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in biological sciences, with a focus in neurobiology at Northwestern University. In August, I will be starting a doctoral program in biostatistics at NYU. I was a teaching assistant at Columbia University in my department and also have tutored graduate students and undergraduates privately as well. My primary areas of tutoring are math and statistics coursework in addition to math sections on standardized tests such as the GRE and GMAT. I am very passionate about helping students feel more confident and excited about math. In my spare time, I enjoy running, playing piano, and spending time with friends and family.
Currently a second-year law student at the University of Chicago, Elena tackled the LSAT recently enough to remember exactly where the logic games and conditional reasoning trips people up. She teaches Analytical Reasoning by breaking each game into setup diagrams and inference chains, so students stop staring at the board and start eliminating answers with confidence. Her perfect 1600 SAT speaks to her comfort with high-stakes standardized tests, and her 4.9 rating shows that approach translates to her students.
I am proud to be a part of Varsity Tutors! I am originally from San Antonio, TX; I completed my undergraduate education at Rice University in Houston where I received a bachelor's degree in Biochemistry and Cell Biology. Currently, I am in my second year of medical school at Baylor College of Medicine.
I am currently a resident physician at Northwestern Hospital.
I'm a current medical student at the University of Arizona College of Medicine with undergraduate degrees from Washington and Lee in chemical engineering and anthropology. I have extensive experience in tutoring and teaching since 2010, and am ready to help you with your learning needs! I focus on standardized testing (SAT/ACT) and also tutor in a wide range of math, English, and Spanish classes. In my free time, I like to run, do CrossFit, volunteer, and watch TV!
I am a junior studying Writing for Screen and Television at the University of Southern California's School of Cinematic Arts. For the past two spring semesters I worked as a CollegeSpring Mentor, tutoring Green Dot Charter high school juniors for the SAT and teaching them predatory skills for college. In addition to my experience tutoring for the SAT, as a screenwriting major I most enjoy teaching my favorite subject, English. I love showing students the power language endows upon them to communicate their ideas and beliefs with others. I believe every student deserves the chance to succeed and to try to capitalize on their strengths while encouraging them to improve in areas they may traditionally find challenging. Endowing a student with confidence in themselves through patience and support is the best way not only to improve academic performance, but also transform them into lifelong learners. I try to share not only my passion for knowledge with students, but also my love of sports (football, baseball, and softball), action films, and global affairs. Seeing students not only improve academically but also show improved confidence and happiness is the most rewarding part of my job.
I am a first year medical student at the Sidney Kimmel Medical College at Thomas Jefferson University. I have been a private tutor in the past in subjects such as math, biology, chemistry, and the SATs and every single one of my more than twenty students have shown significant improvement. Most importantly, I have a passion for teaching, and your needs and preferences as the learner will always be paramount. I hope to help every one of my students reach every bit of their potential, and along the way, to utterly shatter any self-induced limitations that have been placed upon what they can accomplish.
I am available to tutor a range of middle school and high school subjects, but I am most excited about tutoring test prep. I remember how stressful preparing for college can be and I am eager to do my part in helping students fulfill their college goals. I believe that learning is a collaborative process and I am committed to being as actively involved in the student's learning as I can. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, going to the movies (I try to see each Oscar nominee before the ceremony every year.), and am a huge Michigan sports fan.
I am a graduate from Georgetown University, where I received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Mathematics with a minor in Music. I'm currently pursuing a Master's of Science in Business Analytics at Carnegie Mellon University. I've been tutoring since I started high school, focusing on mathematics and writing. Throughout my college career I was employed both privately and by Georgetown University to tutor peers and high school students in the Washington, D.C. area. I worked with students taking classes in all levels of mathematics falling under Algebra, Calculus, Combinatorics, and Problem Solving.
I am an incoming medical student at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. I graduated from Rice University in 2025 with a Bachelor of Science in Biology with minors in Medical Humanities and Business.
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 study intensity, but most students see meaningful gains with focused preparation. Many students improve by 5-10 points with consistent practice and targeted instruction on their weak areas—whether that's logical reasoning, reading comprehension, or analytical reasoning (logic games). A personalized tutoring approach helps you identify exactly where you're losing points and develop strategies to address those specific challenges.
Your first session focuses on understanding your baseline and goals. Expect to discuss your target law schools, timeline, and any sections where you're currently struggling. Many tutors will have you take a diagnostic practice test or review your recent practice test results to identify patterns in your mistakes—this helps create a customized study plan tailored to your needs rather than generic test prep.
Logic games intimidate many test-takers, but they're highly learnable with the right approach. A tutor can teach you the diagramming systems and game types that appear most frequently, help you recognize patterns quickly, and build the speed and accuracy you need. Working through games together allows you to see expert strategies in real time and get immediate feedback on your approach—something that's hard to develop from self-study alone.
Reading comprehension requires both strong comprehension skills and strategic question-answering techniques. Tutors help you develop active reading strategies, identify the main point and structure of dense passages, and avoid common traps in answer choices. Many students benefit from learning how to annotate passages efficiently and understanding the specific question types (main idea, inference, author's tone, etc.) so you can approach each one strategically rather than re-reading constantly.
Timing is one of the biggest challenges on the LSAT—you have about 8.75 minutes per logic game and roughly 8-9 minutes per reading comprehension passage. A tutor helps you develop a personalized pacing strategy based on your strengths; for example, if you're fast with certain game types, you might tackle those first to build momentum. Practice under timed conditions is essential, and your tutor can help you identify where you're losing time and adjust your approach accordingly.
Most students benefit from taking 20-30+ full-length practice tests as part of their LSAT prep, especially in the weeks leading up to test day. Your tutor can help you use practice tests strategically—not just to measure progress, but to identify patterns in your mistakes and refine your strategy. Regular timed practice tests build the stamina and confidence you need for the actual exam, and reviewing your results with a tutor helps you learn from each attempt rather than just repeating the same mistakes.
Test anxiety is common on the LSAT, but it's manageable with the right preparation and mindset. Working with a tutor builds confidence through mastery—as you understand the question types, develop reliable strategies, and see your practice test scores improve, anxiety naturally decreases. Your tutor can also help you develop a test-day routine, teach you how to manage time pressure without panicking, and provide perspective on what scores actually mean for your law school goals.
Look for tutors with strong LSAT scores themselves, experience helping multiple students improve, and familiarity with current test formats and question types. Ideally, your tutor should be able to explain not just the right answer, but why wrong answers are traps—and adapt their teaching style to how you learn best. Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors who have proven track records helping students achieve their target scores and gain admission to their goal law schools.
