I really enjoy tutoring a broad range of subjectsfrom math to test prep to writingbecause it keeps me intellectually active and on my toes. I really like to tutor by leading my partner through an analysis of his/her thought process in problem-solving; I've found it's a really effective way to break bad mental habits and create new, good ones.

Quinn
BA Howard University
7+ Years Tutoring

I am a proponent for the social sciences, it was important that I compliment this understanding with a major in the humanities. I decided to double major in Philosophy and Political Science, giving myself the breadth required to formally contemplate life and society. I needed philosophy to attain a grasp of personhood. This would allow me to reflect more deeply on the individual within structures that serve to hinder or enhance their life experience. In classes, I found myself pulling philosophical concepts and using them to analyze working political ideologies' efficacy in society.

After I graduated I moved back home to Austin and got my Masters in Global Policy Studies at the LBJ School of Public Affairs at UT.

Julia
BA The College of William & Mary
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a recent college graduate currently pursuing a career in publishing in New York City. My interest in tutoring and the publishing industry stem from the same source: I want to help instill in others the same love of learning I have felt throughout my life. Whether it's getting lost in a good book or feeling the thrill of excitement at finally solving a difficult math problem, I feel that learning should be fun and viewed as a challenge, not a chore. Throughout my academic career, I have been a well-rounded student, excelling in math as well as language and literature. I am a notoriously good test-taker, a skill developed from solid study habits that I hope to pass on to future students. For me, tutoring is my way of giving back to my community and paying forward the help I've gotten from teachers, mentors, and fellow students throughout my life.

Sreya
BA University of Michigan-Ann Arbor
6+ Years Tutoring

I'm a college student attending the University of Michigan and I'm majoring in chemistry and computer science. I have two years of extensive experience tutoring high schoolers in chemistry and all subjects of the SAT and ACT. I can also say that I understand completely how difficult the process of test prep and high school chemistry can be because I recently survived the whole process myself having taken IB chem and the ACT/SAT in the last 1-2 years and studying and prepping extensively for them. That being said, I'm always super eager not just to tutor students in those subjects, but also to offer the best advice and guidance I can in tackling those challenges as a high schooler and as someone planning for college. I believe it's super important as a tutor not just to spoon-feed answers but to teach how to problem-solve, so I take care to solidify our understanding of the methods to approach a problem. Most of all, I try to be as flexible and communicative as possible.

Ritik
BA Purdue University-Main Campus
6+ Years Tutoring

I am a junior at Purdue University studying Aerospace Engineering and am part of the Air Force ROTC program. I have 6 years of tutoring experience at places including Kumon, Mathnasium, and Purdue University. I have worked with kids of all ages from kindergarten to sophomores in college, each with their own set of unique strengths, and tutored a variety of subjects, including calculus, trigonometry, geometry, thermodynamics, chemistry, and physics. Like many of my previous students, I struggled to understand concepts that I was being taught and was a terrible test taker. However, I found ways to overcome my obstacles and develop an better intuition for what I was learning. I believe that it is only this intuition and understanding that helps overcome these obstacles. My least favorite thing to see people be discouraged, so with a little bit of guidance and reassurance, I want to show people that they are capable of anything they put their mind to.

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 commitment level, but most students see meaningful gains within 8-12 weeks of focused preparation. Many students improve by 5-10 points, though some see even larger jumps by identifying and addressing specific weak areas—whether that's logical reasoning pacing, reading comprehension strategy, or logic games mastery. The key is working with a tutor who can pinpoint exactly where you're losing points and create a targeted study plan.

Your first session focuses on assessment and strategy. A tutor will review your diagnostic test results, identify which sections are causing the most trouble, and understand your target law school goals and timeline. From there, you'll develop a personalized study plan that addresses your specific challenges—whether that's time management on reading comprehension, mastering logic games, or building confidence in logical reasoning. This foundation ensures every session after that is laser-focused on your needs.

Logic games intimidate many test-takers because they require a different skill set than the other sections—you're essentially learning a new system of diagramming and spatial reasoning. Many students struggle not with the logic itself, but with the speed and accuracy needed under time pressure. A tutor can teach you proven diagramming techniques, help you recognize game types quickly, and build the pattern recognition skills that make games feel intuitive rather than overwhelming.

Reading comprehension success comes down to active reading strategy and understanding what the test makers are actually asking. Many students read too passively or get bogged down in details instead of tracking the main argument and structure. Tutoring helps you develop a strategic approach to passages—how to annotate efficiently, identify the author's main point, and answer questions quickly and accurately. Combined with practice on real LSAT passages, this targeted strategy typically shows results within 3-4 weeks.

Pacing is one of the most common LSAT challenges because each section requires different timing strategies. Reading comprehension needs roughly 8-9 minutes per passage, logical reasoning demands quick pattern recognition, and logic games require careful setup but fast execution once you understand the game. A tutor helps you calibrate your pace for each section, teaches you when to skip and return to questions, and builds the stamina and confidence to maintain accuracy under time pressure through timed practice tests.

Most LSAT prep experts recommend taking 20-30 full-length practice tests over your study period to build familiarity, identify patterns in your mistakes, and develop test-day stamina. However, quality matters more than quantity—it's better to take 15 tests and thoroughly review every mistake than to rush through 30 without analysis. A tutor helps you use practice tests strategically: taking them at the right intervals, analyzing your performance data to spot trends, and adjusting your study plan based on what the tests reveal about your weak areas.

Test anxiety often stems from unfamiliarity with the test format and uncertainty about your abilities. The best antidote is repeated exposure and mastery—taking full-length timed practice tests in realistic conditions builds confidence because you've already done this dozens of times. A tutor also helps you develop mental strategies for test day: how to stay calm when you hit a difficult game, how to manage your energy across three hours, and how to maintain focus when questions feel tricky. Many students find that knowing exactly what to expect and having a solid strategy dramatically reduces anxiety.

Look for tutors with strong LSAT scores (typically 170+), law school experience, and proven success helping students improve their scores. Beyond credentials, the best LSAT tutors understand the test's logic deeply and can explain concepts clearly—they know why certain answer choices are traps and how to teach you to spot them. Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors who have the knowledge and teaching skills to help you master this challenging test and reach your target score.
