BA Cornell University
6+ Years Tutoring

I am a rising sophomore at Cornell University, studying Human Biology, Health and Society. I am on the premed track and am pursuing a minor in South Asian Studies. I was born in India and grew up in Singapore and Buffalo, NY, where I currently live. This past semester, I tutored middle and high school students in math, biology, and chemistry in Ithaca. I also particularly enjoy tutoring for standardized tests such as the ACT, as I feel it is where students are able to make a lot of progress quickly, and it also tends to be the most rewarding for both the students and for me! As someone who loves making organized and detailed plans, I believe having a clear set of goals for one's future is the key to success, and this can be applied to anything, from a single test to one's entire career. I would love to help my students with setting goals and making plans in their high school and/or college careers, in addition to tutoring a specific subject! In college, I am most involved with Cornell's Hindu Student Council and SPICMACAY, an Indian classical music and dance organization. Outside of academia, I sing South Indian classical music and play many different genres of the piano.

Daniel
BA University at Buffalo
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a 3rd year undergrad at the University at Buffalo, working toward my Mathematics BS with a computer science concentration. I find math exceptionally fascinating; I not only aim to teach an understanding of math but also an appreciation. I have taken courses in Algebra, Pre-Calculus, Calculus (I, II, and III), Geometry, Physics, Differential Equations, Linear Algebra, Probability, Statistics, and Mathematical Logic. Through my education, I have amassed an understanding of mathematics from multiple angles, and as such I provide a unique lens through which I want to help my students view the subject. Additionally, these courses are fresh in my mind, and so I can recall what did or did not make sense to me and what helped me understand a certain topic - insight I can pass along to my students. Again, I want to instill not only an understanding, but an appreciation for math in my students, as this appreciation will invoke a desire to further their knowledge. In my spare time I play guitar, drums for my band, ski, and watch hockey when I can.

I'm a soon-to-be graduate of SUNY Geneseo's Chemistry Program, and previously a tutor for students at the college. Since finishing at Geneseo I have returned to Buffalo to begin my career in the chemistry field. I have an extreme passion for chem, and for science in general. My particular strengths lie in the hard sciences, though I am also perfectly apt to prepare you or your son/daughter for many forms of standardized testing, as well as mathematics and subject-tests. I believe that the educational experience works best if customized for each individual student, therefore I like to build lesson and study plans around the needs of each one. In my free time I am also a part-time waiter and bartender, and I can often be found on many of the local Disc Golf courses, or watching Shakespeare in the Park during the summers.

AB New York University
7+ Years Tutoring

I was born in a small town, went to college in the big city, and now live in a medium-sized Rust Belt city. I enjoy learning and teaching, playing music, and casual bike riding, among other things. I hold a bachelor's degree in Politics with a minor in History from New York University. While I enjoy discussing a variety of subjects, tutoring math, history, and political science are perhaps most appealing to me. I find that the act of explaining something to someone else helps me to understand it on an even deeper level, and I find that almost as gratifying as helping someone discover something new. The best thing about tutoring is helping someone to discover, or rediscover, the joy of discovery in themselves.

I have tutored mainly high school students in the New York State Regents exams and AP Calculus, although I also have experience with students in middle and elementary school. Since I have been through many school systems, including public, private, studying abroad, and boarding school, I have learned many different techniques and can attack a problem from various angles.

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.

I have years of experience tutoring college students in math (mostly calculus) and chemistry including both general and organic chemistry. In addition, I am very familiar with all sections of the SAT and ACT having prepared several high school students for these tests. I believe that every student is capable of boosting his or her baseline score on these tests, so long as he or she works hard to get to know the format of the tests and the most popular types of questions. I tutor because I love seeing students develop a genuine passion for the subjects they once disliked (such as math and science), once they understand the power of these subjects and their applications to the real world.

I am a Penn State Graduate (B.S.) and am currently a student at Sidney Kimmel Medical College at Jefferson University. My goal as a tutor is to help make the subjects I love approachable to other students, and to teach the study techniques that have served me well in school.

I am qualified to teach strategy and content for the SAT and MCAT, as well as high school Science, Writing, and Math classes. My greatest strength as a tutor is my ability to simplify abstract concepts using analogies and real-life comparisons so that anybody can learn them. Showing students how their studies relate to the rest of the world is the best way to create long term interest and understanding. My main focus is typically "teaching toward the test," as making sure my students get the grades they need is always the priority.

Frequently Asked Questions

Score improvement depends on your starting point and commitment level, but most students see meaningful gains—typically 5-10 points—when working with a tutor who understands your specific weak areas. The LSAT is highly learnable; many students struggle not with the concepts but with pacing, question format recognition, and test anxiety. A personalized approach helps you identify whether you need help with logic games, reading comprehension, logical reasoning, or test-day strategy, then targets those areas systematically.

Your first session focuses on assessment and strategy. Expect to take a diagnostic practice test or review recent practice tests to identify your baseline score and pinpoint which sections and question types are causing the most trouble. From there, tutors work with you to create a customized study plan that addresses your specific challenges—whether that's time management on logic games, inference questions in reading comp, or building confidence on test day.

Timing issues are one of the most common LSAT challenges, and they're highly fixable with targeted practice. Tutors help you develop section-specific pacing strategies—for example, learning which logic games to tackle first, how long to spend on each reading passage, and when to skip and return to harder questions. The key is practicing under timed conditions repeatedly so pacing becomes automatic, not something you have to think about on test day.

Logic games (analytical reasoning) tends to be the biggest hurdle for Buffalo-area students, but reading comprehension and logical reasoning each present unique challenges. Logic games require learning specific diagram techniques and pattern recognition; reading comp demands active reading and inference skills under time pressure; logical reasoning tests your ability to spot argument flaws quickly. Tutors diagnose which section is holding back your score and focus intensive practice there while maintaining your strengths.

Most students benefit from 2-4 months of focused preparation, though this varies based on your target score and starting point. If you're aiming for a top law school, expect to invest more time. Working with a tutor accelerates your progress by eliminating inefficient study habits and focusing your effort where it matters most. Regular sessions (typically 1-2 per week) combined with consistent independent practice yields the best results.

Practice tests are essential—they're how you build stamina, identify patterns in your mistakes, and get comfortable with the test format and timing. Most tutors recommend taking full, timed practice tests regularly (weekly or bi-weekly) and reviewing them thoroughly to understand not just what you got wrong, but why. This data-driven approach helps tutors and students track progress and adjust strategy as needed, turning practice tests into a learning tool rather than just a measurement.

Test anxiety often stems from uncertainty about the format, unfamiliar question types, or time pressure—all things that tutoring directly addresses. By practicing extensively under timed conditions, you build familiarity and confidence. Tutors also teach test-day strategies like pacing techniques, how to manage difficult sections, and mental approaches to staying calm. Many students find that understanding the test deeply and having a clear strategy significantly reduces anxiety on test day.

Look for tutors with strong LSAT scores (typically 170+), experience teaching the test, and familiarity with law school admissions. Ideally, they've helped multiple students improve their scores and can explain their teaching philosophy clearly. Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors who understand the nuances of each section and can adapt their teaching to your learning style—whether you need detailed explanations, strategic shortcuts, or confidence building.
