Charles
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +25 Subjects
I am a junior Mechanical Engineering major at Yale, and I hope to become a Naval Aviator after college. I am also a varsity sailor, and enjoy playing music with friends when I can get some free time. I have been tutoring my fellow students throughout my entire academic career, and I would best describe my tutoring style as one that adapts to each students' needs. For example, I have always tried to frame questions in a different way so that the student can better understand the question. Some students need visual representations of numbers and systems to understand them, and others benefit more by understanding the concepts behind each formula. I prefer to tutor in math and physics, and especially with real world application problems. I hope to help students improve their standardized test scores and their understanding of the math and sciences so that they can achieve their academic goals! Hobbies: art, books, running, reading, music, writing
Tony
Calculus Tutor • +28 Subjects
I am a recent graduate of Yale University and incoming first year medical student at Columbia University. Originally from the DC area, I have always had a passion for science and medicine and pursued a degree in Biology while at Yale. During the 2008-2009 academic year, I tutored science, math, English, history, and Mandarin Chinese part-time with a DC-based tutoring company. At Yale, I worked as a freshman counselor to provide academic and career advice to incoming freshmen. I have taken both SAT and MCAT test prep classes and am familiar with both tests as well as the preparation necessary to score well. My personal career goals include attending medical school to pursue either immunology/infectious diseases or psych/neurology, teaching biology at the university level, and working in public/global health with either the CDC or the WHO.
Samuel
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +29 Subjects
I am a freshman at Caltech majoring in Applied and Computational Mathematics. My favorite subject to tutor is math because I find it very rewarding to simplify complex topics to aid in understanding. I have lots of tutoring experience. In high school, I ran and taught an SAT prep class and was vice president of my school's NHS chapter where I ran our tutoring program, and I, myself, tutored. I also was a teaching assistant in the summer of 2020 for a class in discrete mathematics through a program called PACT (Program in Algorithmic and Combinatorial Thinking). I love learning and hope to make the process enjoyable for you!

Frequently Asked Questions
The essay section (worth 50% of the written exam) and Multistate Performance Test require students to spot issues quickly, apply multiple areas of law simultaneously, and write concisely under time pressure—skills that differ significantly from law school exams. Many students struggle with Kentucky-specific procedural rules, civil procedure nuances, and the MPT's demand for efficient legal analysis in unfamiliar fact patterns. Personalized tutoring helps identify whether gaps stem from substantive knowledge, issue spotting ability, or time management, then targets the specific weak point rather than generic bar prep review.
A strong Kentucky Bar Exam tutor uses targeted practice essays and MPTs to diagnose whether a student's issue is incomplete rule statements, poor fact analysis, or inefficient organization under time constraints. Rather than reviewing every possible essay topic, expert tutors focus on the student's actual weak areas—whether that's contracts, torts, or procedure—and use real Kentucky Bar Exam essays to teach the specific writing style and depth expected. They also help students develop a reliable time-allocation strategy for the MPT's document review and analysis sections, which often trips up students who haven't practiced with real exam materials.
Many bar exam candidates hit a plateau where their practice question scores stall despite repeated study, often because they're drilling questions without understanding the underlying patterns or their specific error types. A Kentucky Bar Exam tutor analyzes which Multistate subjects (evidence, contracts, criminal law, etc.) consistently trip you up, whether you're missing nuanced rule distinctions or falling for common distractors. Personalized instruction focuses on the cognitive gap—teaching you to recognize question patterns, eliminate wrong answers systematically, and apply rules with precision—rather than just accumulating more practice questions.
The best Kentucky Bar Exam tutors have passed the Kentucky Bar themselves and ideally have practice experience or bar prep teaching background, so they understand which topics trip up real candidates and what the exam actually tests versus what law school emphasized. They should be skilled at diagnosing learning gaps quickly—distinguishing between a student who needs rule clarification versus one who needs issue-spotting strategy—and comfortable teaching both Multistate subjects and Kentucky-specific law. Look for tutors who use real past exam essays and MPTs in their instruction and can explain not just the right answer, but why test-takers commonly choose wrong answers.
Many students run out of time on essays because they over-explain early issues or struggle to prioritize which points matter most—a problem that standard bar prep doesn't fully address. A tutor works with you on timed essay practice, teaching you to quickly identify the high-value issues, write efficient rule statements, and allocate your 30 minutes per essay strategically. By practicing with real Kentucky Bar Exam essays under timed conditions and getting immediate feedback on your approach, you develop the pattern recognition and pacing that separates passing from high-scoring performance.
Rather than reviewing the entire subject from scratch, an expert tutor pinpoints exactly which Evidence or Criminal Procedure rules or concepts are causing your question errors—whether it's hearsay exceptions, spousal privilege, or search and seizure doctrine. They use targeted MBE questions and real exam patterns to teach you how that subject is actually tested, including the subtle rule distinctions and fact patterns the Multistate loves. This focused approach is far more efficient than generic bar prep review and helps you move from 40-50% accuracy to 70%+ on that subject within a realistic timeframe.
Meaningful improvement depends on your starting point and how much time you can dedicate, but most students see measurable gains—typically 5-15 percentage points on MBE practice scores or noticeably stronger essay performance—within 4-8 weeks of consistent 1-on-1 work. If you're targeting a specific weak area like contracts or procedure, focused tutoring can move you from failing that section to passing range in 3-4 weeks. The key is consistent practice between sessions and tutoring that targets your actual gaps rather than generic review; students who work with a tutor on their real problem areas see faster, more durable improvement than those who just do more bar prep drilling.
Rule statements on Kentucky Bar essays must be precise and complete—covering all elements of a rule without unnecessary detail—and tutors teach students to calibrate depth based on how central that rule is to the question. A strong tutor shows you how to extract rules from provided statutes and case law efficiently, organize multi-part rules clearly, and avoid the common trap of writing rules that are either too broad or so detailed they eat up your time. By reviewing actual Kentucky Bar Exam essays and analyzing which rule statements earned points and which fell flat, you learn the exact level of specificity the graders expect.
