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.

Danielle
BA Tufts University • Doctor of Medicine, Premedicine University of Pittsburgh-Pittsburgh Campus
8+ Years Tutoring

I'm a first-year med student at Pitt Med. I graduated from Tufts University in Medford, Massachusetts with a BS in Biology this past May. As much as I love medicine and the hard sciences, most of my tutoring experience is in general ACT prep, in addition to academic and creative writing, middle school math and reading, and high school and college math. Some of my favorite all-time classes were medical sociology in college and AP US Government and Politics in high school. Through Tufts, I taught English as a second language (3 semesters) and citizenship exam prep (1 semester) to Hispanic immigrants and refugees, which taught me a lot about how to gauge students' understanding, teach tough subjects, plan activities, provide flashcards and the best possible study materials, and make the most of the students' time. I love tutoring because I know how much a tutor's patience one-on-one can make the difference. I love sharing my study tips and test-taking strategies so they can study efficiently and make the best use of their time to get that desired result. I want students to feel heard and supported and help them find methods best suited to them. I want to help students enjoy learning and find more confidence in themselves through mastering tough subject matter.

I am an undergraduate student at the University of Pennsylvania. I have been tutoring for over 6 years now, and I have found it to be an extremely rewarding and enjoyable experience. I specialize in mathematics, particularly at the high school level, and I also have experience tutoring other subjects. I also have done SAT prep for the mathematics section of the New SAT and am very familiar with the recent changes to the exam. My belief is that everyone is capable of learning with enough time, explanation, and practice, and I hope to pass this on to all the students I work with. For this reason, I believe in teaching students how to think and problem solve, rather than just having them memorize patterns or facts.

Samuel
Applied Mathematics major Brown University
1+ Years Tutoring

I'm just not very good at it." People tend to not be very excited about topics that they don't understand. Teachers and grades have been making them feel bad whenever they come to class, and there is nothing more frustrating than studying for hours and still not getting any concept. These sorts of things can make someone feel defeated or unintelligent. To that end, the simplest way to get a student to become excited about learning is to counteract these negative effects with healthier, positive learning strategies. When students seriously get something, don't move on immediately to the next topic, but instead dwell on what they get for a while, solidifying it and making them feel intelligent and like future concepts are within their grasp. Build pride in each student for the progress and work they complete so that they are eager to master each concept. In addition, to get students more engaged in topics, I try to emphasize the real-world applications of anything I teach. As an applied mathematics major, I can appreciate more than most how the subjects people study can affect the real world. So when students groan "When am I ever going to have to use this?" I can actually give a satisfying answer that will make them realize how powerful what they learn really is. This tends to make students less dismissive and care a lot more about the concepts at hand. While I can't promise that these methods will make a student love their school subjects as much as sports or video games, they tend to make them appreciate and care about the material as well as feel validated by it. In turn, this leads to a much more serious and sustained effort and enjoyment of the subject.

I am a graduate from Rochester Institute of Technology with a master's in Game Design and Development. My passions lie in everything related to games and mathematics. In the past, I have tutored various subjects in mathematics throughout high school and college, including but not limited to Algebra, Algebra II, Trigonometry, Calculus, Discrete Mathematics, Mathematics of Graphical Simulation, and Linear Algebra. As for technology, I am more than happy to reach out for help in Web Development (HTML, CSS, Javascript) or C# programming. I believe that every person can learn any topic. While every individual has different tastes, strengths, and weaknesses, there is no such thing as an "incapability" to know a subject. Education often possesses a guise of anti-fun, but I can promise you that all topics can be engaging, and I am willing to show you how engaging mathematics and technology can be. As a Game Designer, I have a deep interest in both playing games and making games. This includes games of all kinds: video games, board games, tabletop role-playing games, trading card games, miniatures, and even some sports like tennis or ping pong. Games act as a fantastic teaching tool. They teach by design without users recognizing. It is always a satisfying moment when somebody says "I learned that word from Magic" or "D&D taught me that." Remember: you can succeed. If something is important to you, then it's always worthwhile.

Everyone is intelligent and capable of learning 2. People have diverse interests and passions 3. Everyone learns in a unique way. If we spend our time following our passions and figuring out what learning style works best for us, than our education can be transformative. One of the primary problems of our education system is the lack of individualized learning time, and personal relationship building between teacher and student. I think we tend to use a one size fits all approach with education because our schools and teachers don't have the time or resources to respond to the needs of every student. I believe that 1-on-1 tutoring, mentoring and education is essential for developing learning practices that are effective for you. I'm excited to work with you!

Frequently Asked Questions

Score improvement depends on your starting point and study commitment, but most students see meaningful gains with personalized instruction. Many students improve by 10-15 points or more when working with a tutor who identifies their specific weak areas—whether that's logical reasoning pacing, reading comprehension strategy, or logic games fundamentals. Your tutor will create a targeted study plan based on practice test results to maximize your improvement timeline.

Your first session focuses on assessment and strategy. Your tutor will review your diagnostic practice test (or administer one), identify which sections need the most work, and discuss your target score and law school timeline. You'll also learn about the test format, question types, and get an initial sense of which areas—like logic games or reading comprehension—require the most attention in your study plan.

Logic games intimidate many test-takers, but they're highly learnable with the right system. A tutor will teach you how to diagram different game types, recognize patterns, and develop the speed that comes from repeated practice. Rather than memorizing templates, you'll learn the underlying logic so you can adapt to any game variation—and many students find this section becomes a confidence builder once the fundamentals click.

Reading comprehension success comes down to active reading and strategic question prioritization. Your tutor will teach you how to identify main ideas, author tone, and argument structure while reading—not after—so you're prepared for the questions. You'll also learn which question types to tackle first based on your strengths, and how to manage the time pressure that makes this section challenging for many test-takers.

Most students benefit from taking 15-25 full practice tests under timed conditions as part of their LSAT prep. Your tutor will help you space these strategically throughout your study plan—using early tests for diagnostic purposes and later tests to build stamina and refine strategy. Between full tests, you'll do targeted drills on weak areas, so practice tests become a tool for measuring progress and adjusting your approach.

Timing is one of the biggest challenges on the LSAT, and it requires both speed and strategy. Your tutor will help you develop a pacing plan for each section—knowing when to skip a tough question, how long to spend on logic games versus reading, and when to circle back. As you build accuracy through practice, speed naturally follows; the goal is never to rush, but to work efficiently so you finish with time to review.

Test anxiety often stems from unfamiliarity with the format and uncertainty about your abilities—both things tutoring directly addresses. By taking many practice tests in realistic conditions, you'll build confidence and reduce surprises on test day. Your tutor can also help you develop mental strategies for staying calm under pressure, like breaking the test into manageable sections and focusing on what you can control rather than the overall stakes.

Look for tutors with strong LSAT scores (typically 170+), law school experience, and a track record of helping students improve. Beyond credentials, the best tutors understand the test's logic deeply enough to explain why answers are right or wrong—not just that they are. When you connect with Varsity Tutors, you'll be matched with experienced tutors who know the LSAT inside and out and can adapt their teaching to your learning style.
