I am a second year law student at the University of Chicago who hails from the San Francisco Bay Area! I tutor the SAT, ESL, and Spanish. I was an AVID tutor in high school, and after college I taught an ESL class and tutored a high school student in Spanish. In law school, I am involved with the Lawyers in the Classroom program. My tutoring philosophy is based on listening to students work through problems and helping them to spot their confusions or incorrect assumptions. I believe students learn much better when they aren't simply told the right answer or right reasoning; they need to get there on their own.

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.
I'm referring to math, of course, but I didn't always like the subject. Until about age 16, I thought of math as a boring, mind-numbing process of blindly memorizing formulas and then forgetting them after the test, but a series of wonderful teachers showed me the truth. I had thought that everything in math was invented arbitrarily just to torture students, but actually it all made sense in a deep way. When I caught a glimpse of what math really was, I found it irresistible and I ended up majoring in math in college at UChicago. I'm currently a Master's student in Computer Science at NYU.
I am a graduate of the University of Chicago where I received my undergraduate degree in political science. Right after graduation, I worked as an academic and test prep tutor as well as admissions consultant in Hong Kong. For the past two years, I worked with a number of students to help prepare them for college in the United States.
I am a life-long proponent of education and learning. I graduated from Princeton University with a B.A. in philosophy. After working for a few years, including in book publishing, I returned to school and completed my M.A. in history at the University of California, Berkeley. While there, I taught history and philosophy classes to undergraduates. I also taught Standardized Test Prep (SAT and GRE) for Summit Tutors and Kaplan.
I am a math tutor who is currently attending the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and majoring in Environmental Engineering. I have been tutoring math for over four years, both at Fenwick High School (where I attended) as a peer tutor and with Mathnasium. I teach Pre-Algebra, Algebra, Geometry, Pre-Calc, and Calculus 1 + 2, and I also cover all sections of the ACT. I prefer to take an involved approach to tutoring -- that is, rather than have my students sit and listen to me talk, I prefer to actively engage them with problems. I believe that the best way to learn is to do, and I love to use this philosophy in my tutoring. However, I am willing to adapt to whatever style my students prefer -- if my students learn best from lectures, then lectures will be what we do. Working with clients to discover the way they learn best is one of my favorite parts of tutoring.
I'm a current student at Northwestern University and standardized test tutor. I've been tutoring for the past 3 years and have helped many students score well on the SAT, ACT, PSAT, and similar exams. I am also fluent in French.
I've been working with students for over seven years, from middle school all the way through college, across subjects like math, calculus, statistics, linear algebra, chemistry, and physics, with a lot of SAT and ACT prep mixed in. My background is perhaps a little unconventional. I have two bachelor's degrees, one in Engineering and one in Communication Studies, plus a Master's in Design. That combination means I can guide you through challenging technical material and communicate it in a way that is easy to grasp. What I care most about is helping students get to a place where they don't need me anymore. I know that sounds like a strange thing for a tutor to say, but I think it's the right goal. I'm not here to walk you through steps to copy down. I want you to understand why something works, because that's what holds up under pressure, on a test you haven't seen before. If you're ready to ace that test or prove that theorem that's been bugging you, reach out and let's work together
I'm a recent graduate of Oberlin College and Conservatory, where I studied Jazz Trumpet and Environmental Studies. I tutor in a wide range of subjects, including math, French, English, environmental science, and standardized test prep. I have experience teaching academic subjects and music in both classroom and individual settings, and I have worked with middle school through college-aged students. As a teacher, I strive to be flexible and approachable, getting to know my students and constantly reassessing my approach based on the needs of the individual student I am working with.
I'm thrilled to work with anybody on any subjects of interest, reach out with any questions!
I am comfortable tutoring a variety of subjects, I am most passionate about writing and language, and I truly believe that strong writing skills are an asset in every area of life. Through my experience as an after-school program manager, I learned to build relationships and work well with students, parents, and teachers to meet student goals. In response to the pandemic, I quickly learned ways to adapt my educational youth work to a virtual setting. My social work background helps me connect with students on a personal and social-emotional level, which lays a trusting foundation for real growth and learning.
I am a personable, easy-going tutor who wants students to feel comfortable working with me. I'm starting a PhD program in the fall and looking for a few tutoring opportunities to supplement my fellowship.

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 study. If you're struggling with question types or timing, personalized instruction can help you identify blind spots and build systematic approaches that dramatically improve accuracy. Many students jump 5-10 points on the Logical Reasoning section alone by learning to recognize argument structures and common fallacies more quickly.
The Logical Reasoning section tests your ability to analyze arguments under time pressure—typically 35 minutes for 25 questions. Common struggles include:
- Confusing answer choices that seem similar
- Misidentifying the main argument or conclusion
- Running out of time on harder questions
- Overthinking questions and second-guessing correct answers
Expert tutors for students in Chicago can help you develop a systematic framework for approaching each question type, which builds both speed and accuracy.
Practice tests are essential, but how you use them matters more than volume. Start by taking untimed practice sections to understand question types and logic patterns—accuracy comes first. Once you're comfortable with content, introduce time pressure. After each practice session, review every question you missed or hesitated on, noting whether it was a logic gap, timing issue, or misreading. Personalized tutoring helps you develop this review strategy systematically so you're not just practicing more, you're practicing smarter.
Effective pacing comes from recognizing question difficulty patterns and knowing when to skip strategically. The LSAT front-loads easier questions and saves harder ones for the end—a skilled approach is to work through questions you can solve confidently first, flag tough ones, then return with remaining time. Tutors can teach you to spot question difficulty instantly by recognizing argument structure complexity. This isn't just about speed; it's about allocating your mental energy where it counts most.
Track your accuracy by question type across 5-10 recent practice tests. You'll likely notice patterns—some students struggle with weaken/strengthen questions, others with necessary assumption questions or principle application. Once you identify weak spots, isolate them: do 10-15 questions of that type, review your logic carefully, then drill again. This targeted approach works faster than general review. Connecting with a tutor for students in Chicago means getting expert analysis of your specific patterns and customized strategies for the question types giving you trouble.
Test anxiety often stems from uncertainty—when you don't fully understand the logic, you second-guess yourself and lose time. Building confidence requires deep familiarity with argument patterns and your own thinking process. Tutors help by creating a structured study plan where you practice consistently and see real score improvements, which naturally builds confidence. They also teach you concrete strategies like reading the question stem first, bracketing arguments, and recognizing when to eliminate answers systematically—these mental routines keep you calm and focused under pressure.
The Logical Reasoning section tests your ability to analyze arguments across two main categories: identifying argument structures (main point, conclusion, assumption, inference) and evaluating arguments (strengthen, weaken, flaw, parallel reasoning). You'll encounter formal logic elements too—conditional reasoning and logical deductions. Each question type appears multiple times, and mastery requires understanding the underlying logic principles, not just memorizing strategies. Expert tutors structure your learning to start with foundational concepts, then build toward complex multi-layered arguments, ensuring you develop genuine analytical skills rather than surface-level test tactics.
