I'm drawn to those topics myself, they are the things I am most passionate about, and therefore the things I love to teach and the subjects in which I love to share what knowledge I have. I believe enthusiasm goes a long way, and that some of my best teachers have been the ones who loved their subjects the most.
I'm not spending hours reading Nietzsche, I'm doing improv comedy and graphic design. I'm currently pursuing a career in advertising/consulting, and in my spare time I eat mini tacos and watch Louis CK stand-up comedy.
I am a graduate of University of California, San Diego. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Political Science with a focus on International Relations, and a minor in Philosophy. Since graduation, I've been interning at a policy think-tank in Washington, D.C. 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.
I'm especially passionate about helping with English, college application essays, and SAT Writing. I remember firsthand how challenging the college application process can be, so I find it fulfilling to help students discern their own narratives and share techniques to help them succeed. As a 10-time tournament champion in Impromptu speaking, I also love coaching students in public speech and helping them build their confidence!
I am currently a graduate student at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. My teaching experience spans several years and age groups. As a high school student, I volunteered as a teaching assistant for a middle school science class. During college, I spent six months as a GED tutor, working with adults. Later, I spent two years as an Organic Chemistry Laboratory teaching assistant. I am a friendly and outgoing person, and I really enjoy teaching and sharing my knowledge with others. I particularly like working with middle school and high school students, as I can challenge them and help them build strong foundations during some of their most important academic years!
I'm Alicia, a graduate of Washington University in St. Louis, and graduate student in Writing at Columbia University.
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.
I'm a huge Red Sox fan and love watching detective shows when I have free time.
I am an interdisciplinary educator with an Ed.M. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and a B.A. from Dartmouth College. My background is primarily in integrated arts learning and museum education and I specialize in visual arts, history and art history, and object-based learning. In all subjects, I take a creative, inquiry-based and learner-centered approach, designing opportunities for each unique individual to meet their learning goals.
I am currently a resident physician at Northwestern Hospital.
I am proud to be a part of Varsity Tutors! I am originally from San Antonio, TX; I completed my undergraduate education at Rice University in Houston where I received a bachelor's degree in Biochemistry and Cell Biology. Currently, I am in my second year of medical school at Baylor College of Medicine.
I'm Anna! I'm currently a student in the MD/MBA program between Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine and the Kellogg School of Management, and graduated from Northwestern University as part of the Honors Program in Medical Education. I attended the Bergen County Academies in New Jersey, a selective, application-based magnet school, for high school.

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.
