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 Mississippi Bar Exam covers multiple substantive law areas, but candidates frequently struggle most with the Multistate Performance Test (MPT) components and time-intensive essay sections. Real property, civil procedure, and contracts tend to challenge many test-takers because they require both deep conceptual understanding and quick application under pressure. Additionally, Mississippi-specific law and procedure rules can trip up candidates who focus solely on model answers or national bar prep materials. Personalized tutoring helps you identify your specific weak areas early and build targeted strategies rather than reviewing material uniformly.
Standard bar prep courses follow a set curriculum delivered to thousands of students simultaneously, which means you move at the course's pace regardless of your individual needs. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction lets you focus intensively on the exact topics causing you trouble, whether that's mastering fact patterns, improving your essay writing speed, or understanding Mississippi-specific procedural rules. A tutor can also adapt teaching methods to how you learn best—some people need visual flowcharts for procedure, others benefit from practice problems with detailed feedback. This targeted approach typically leads to more efficient study time and stronger performance on test day.
Look for tutors who have recent bar exam experience, ideally with direct knowledge of Mississippi's specific rules and procedures. They should be able to diagnose exactly where you're losing points—whether it's issue spotting, rule application, or time management—and create a focused study plan rather than reviewing everything generically. Strong tutors also understand the difference between knowing the law and being able to write about it quickly under exam conditions, and they use practice essays with detailed feedback to build both content mastery and writing efficiency. Experience helping candidates improve their weakest areas is more valuable than simply knowing all the material.
Most bar candidates study for 2-3 months after law school graduation, though the timeline varies based on your starting point and how much time you can dedicate weekly. If you're using a standard bar prep course, adding personalized tutoring sessions (typically 5-10 hours per week) can accelerate progress by helping you eliminate gaps more quickly and spend less time on material you've already mastered. Some candidates benefit from starting tutoring earlier if they're struggling with foundational concepts, while others work with a tutor primarily during the final 4-6 weeks to polish essays and refine performance test strategy. A tutor can help you create a realistic timeline based on your specific needs.
Yes—in fact, tutoring is particularly valuable after a bar exam attempt because you now have concrete data about what didn't work. You know which essay topics gave you the lowest scores, which performance test sections you rushed through, or which procedure rules tripped you up. A tutor can analyze your specific weak points from that attempt and build a targeted retake plan rather than repeating generic bar prep. Many candidates who struggled on a first attempt improve significantly with focused tutoring because they're no longer learning from scratch—they're refining specific skills and addressing known gaps, which typically requires far less time than initial preparation.
Effective essay practice goes beyond just writing answers—you need timed practice under realistic conditions followed by detailed feedback that explains exactly what you missed and why. Many candidates write essays without checking their work against model answers, missing the chance to learn from their mistakes. With personalized tutoring, a tutor reviews your essays for completeness of issue spotting, accuracy of rule statements, quality of fact analysis, and whether you're spending time proportionally on high-value issues. They can also help you develop systems for organizing your thoughts quickly, spotting red flag fact patterns, and writing concisely under pressure—skills that generic model answers can't teach. Regular practice essays with expert feedback typically shows marked improvement within 2-3 weeks.
Results depend on where you're starting, but candidates who work with a tutor typically see measurable improvement in their weakest areas within 3-4 weeks. You might improve from scoring essays poorly due to missed issues to catching most testable issues, or from rushing through performance tests to completing them with time for review. Many candidates report increased confidence managing the exam's time pressure and clearer strategies for tackling unfamiliar fact patterns. Rather than a single score guarantee, expect concrete improvements in specific skills—better issue spotting, more organized analysis, faster recall of Mississippi-specific rules, or improved performance test timing—that compound into stronger overall performance on test day.
