Kristen
BA Rockhurst University
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a graduate of Rockhurst University where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education with a minor in English Literature. Upon graduating, I became certified to teach both elementary education (grades 1-6) and English Language Arts (grades 5-9) in the state of Missouri. I have spent the past two years teaching seventh grade reading and writing, and I have loved every minute of it! Not only do I love helping my students understand new concepts in my subject areas, but I also really enjoy sharing literature, both classics and new fiction, with them in hopes it will foster a love of reading. I believe in the power of literature to spark critical thinking and help students make meaningful connections to their lives and the lives of others. It may come as no surprise that one of my chief hobbies is reading; I try to read fifty new novels every year, many of which I can then recommend to my students! I tutor a broad range of subjects, most notably English, Literature, and ACT/SAT Test Preparations, but regardless of what I am tutoring, my teaching philosophy and style stems from building relationships with my students. While I have a great innate desire to help the next generation learn and succeed, I realize that the first step to doing so is getting to know my students and their individual needs. Only then can I create truly meaningful, relevant, and applicable lessons and tutoring sessions that will help them learn and grow. My passion is to help students realize their potential as life-long learners and help them succeed as they navigate their educational paths.

Kathleen
BA Washington University in St. Louis
1+ Years Tutoring

I am an undergraduate at Washington University, and I grew up in Columbus, Ohio. Math has always been one of my favorite subjects. I love Pre-algebra, Calculus, Linear Algebra and everything in between! I have tutored for about four years and have worked with students of all ages. Most students come to me for Math, but I have also worked with students on SAT and ACT test prep, Statistics and Physics. Everyone learns in a slightly different way, and I love figuring out the best way to teach something to people individually and dig down to what questions they really need to have answered to understand the material. In my spare time, I like to go on long bike rides and explore St. Louis's restaurants. I also love baking, playing with dogs and cats, watching movies with my friends and playing soccer.

BA Brown University (transferring from the University of St Andrews)
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a member of the Brown Class of 2018, pursuing a bachelors degree in mathematics. I graduated from Phillips Exeter Academy in 2014. (I am able to help anyone with the boarding school admissions process.) Outside of academia, I pursue my passions in dance, travel, volunteering, reading and art. My tutoring subjects are mathematics (from elementary school to college level) and standardized testing (SAT, SAT subject tests, PSAT, and SSAT). I have tutored mainly high school students in the New York State Regents exams and AP Calculus, although I also have experience with students in middle and elementary school. Since I have been through many school systems, including public, private, studying abroad, and boarding school, I have learned many different techniques and can attack a problem from various angles. Ultimately, my teaching style is full of tips and tricks to break down complicated topics into simple, more understandable ideas.

Kiersten
BA University
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a junior studying Writing for Screen and Television at the University of Southern California's School of Cinematic Arts. For the past two spring semesters I worked as a CollegeSpring Mentor, tutoring Green Dot Charter high school juniors for the SAT and teaching them predatory skills for college. In addition to my experience tutoring for the SAT, as a screenwriting major I most enjoy teaching my favorite subject, English. I love showing students the power language endows upon them to communicate their ideas and beliefs with others. I believe every student deserves the chance to succeed and to try to capitalize on their strengths while encouraging them to improve in areas they may traditionally find challenging. Endowing a student with confidence in themselves through patience and support is the best way not only to improve academic performance, but also transform them into lifelong learners. I try to share not only my passion for knowledge with students, but also my love of sports (football, baseball, and softball), action films, and global affairs. Seeing students not only improve academically but also show improved confidence and happiness is the most rewarding part of my job.

Currently a second-year law student at the University of Chicago, Elena tackled the LSAT recently enough to remember exactly where the logic games and conditional reasoning trips people up. She teaches Analytical Reasoning by breaking each game into setup diagrams and inference chains, so students stop staring at the board and start eliminating answers with confidence. Her perfect 1600 SAT speaks to her comfort with high-stakes standardized tests, and her 4.9 rating shows that approach translates to her students.

Frequently Asked Questions

Score improvement depends on your starting point and study commitment, but most students see meaningful gains with personalized instruction focused on their specific weak areas. Many students improve by 5-10 points or more when working with a tutor who helps them identify patterns in their mistakes and develop targeted strategies for each section. The key is consistent practice combined with expert feedback on your reasoning, not just working through more problems.

The LSAT has three scored sections: Logical Reasoning (two sections), Reading Comprehension, and Analytical Reasoning (Logic Games). Many students find Logic Games most challenging because they require a different type of spatial reasoning, while others struggle with Reading Comprehension under time pressure. A tutor can diagnose which section is holding back your score and teach you the specific strategies and pacing techniques that work for your learning style.

Practice tests are essential—they're the best way to build stamina, identify weak areas, and get comfortable with the actual test format and timing. Most students benefit from taking full, timed practice tests every 1-2 weeks during their preparation. A tutor can review your practice test results with you, help you understand why you missed questions, and adjust your study plan based on patterns in your performance.

Pacing is one of the most common challenges because the LSAT is designed to be difficult to finish. Rather than trying to do every question perfectly, effective test-takers learn to recognize which questions they can solve quickly and which ones to skip strategically. A tutor can teach you timing strategies specific to each section, help you practice under realistic time constraints, and show you how to maximize your score by focusing on questions you can answer correctly.

Test anxiety often comes from uncertainty about what to expect or feeling unprepared for specific question types. Working with a tutor helps you build confidence by demystifying the test format, mastering the strategies that work for you, and practicing under conditions that mimic the real test. Regular feedback on your progress and a clear study plan also help reduce anxiety by showing you concrete improvement over time.

Look for a tutor with strong LSAT expertise, ideally someone who has scored well on the test themselves and has experience teaching all three sections. It's also valuable to find someone who understands different learning styles and can adapt their teaching to how you learn best. Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors in the Kansas City area who have proven track records helping students improve their scores and reach their law school goals.

Most students benefit from 3-4 months of consistent preparation, though this varies based on your starting score and target score. A typical study schedule includes 15-20 hours per week of focused work, including practice tests, section drills, and tutoring sessions. Your tutor can help you create a personalized timeline based on your goals and current performance, and adjust your plan if you need more time on particular sections.

Your first session typically includes a diagnostic assessment to understand your current strengths and weaknesses across all three sections, a discussion of your law school goals and target score, and an overview of a personalized study plan. This helps your tutor understand your learning style and identify which sections need the most attention. You'll also get clarity on what to expect in upcoming sessions and how tutoring will help you reach your goals.
