Alisha's background is in dance and political science, not law — but her 34 ACT composite signals the kind of sharp verbal and analytical reasoning that transfers to LSAT Logical Reasoning, where spotting flawed assumptions and mapping conditional statements matters more than legal knowledge. She also teaches the LSAT's Analytical Reasoning section by turning each logic game into a step-by-step constraint diagram, treating it like choreography: every piece has a position, and the rules dictate what moves are possible.
I am currently studying English literature and secondary education at Meredith College in Raleigh, North Carolina. I love Game of Thrones, Warhammer, and YouTube channels about world travel and languages. I am currently learning Spanish and Arabic, and I hope to be fluent in both someday. My biggest bucket list item is to travel to Bolivia and see the Salar de Uyuni. I have had extensive experience as a tutor of all ages, from helping kindergarteners learn to read and write English to working with adult students on their term papers for college. I am available to tutor reading, writing, basic Spanish, SAT/ACT prep, algebra, geometry, and study skills. As your tutor, my goal is to provide you with the tools to catch your own mistakes rather than just correcting them myself. I want to help you grow as a learner so you can use your own strengths to master the material.
I am a graduate of the University of California, Berkeley and Duke University. I received my Bachelor's degree in History and my Master's degree in Religious Studies. Since graduation I have tutored students in American History and Biblical Hebrew, which were exceedingly rewarding experiences. I am especially passionate in helping students learn to think critically, and enjoy the process of learning. While I tutor a variety of subjects, I am most enthusiastic about tutoring in History and Writing because these subjects utilize skills that students will use and cultivate throughout their lives and are applicable for many careers. I would describe my teaching philosophy as hands on and project-based learning. I strive to include fun and relevant videos, songs, and activities into my curriculum to ensure the engagement of my students. Outside of academia I like painting, baking, hiking, photography, and having game nights with friends.
I am graduate from UNC Chapel Hill where I obtained a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. I am also a member of Mensa and enjoy exercising and playing basketball or tennis in my free time.
I love math and physics, particularly as it relates to geology. Ask me about rocks in my spare time! Also a casual American history and constitutional/political buff. APUSH Text: Henrietta Calculus Text: Stewart Physics Text: Knight
I am not tutoring or working, I spend my spare time swimming, watching sports, basketball or football, and cooking. I look forward to working with you!
I am so excited to help you work through your learning journey! I promise you're smarter than you think. Let's figure this out together!
I am comfortable teaching almost all high school math subjects.
I am a second-year college student at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I have previous tutoring experience and I have learned numerous skills and techniques that will help you grow as a student. Outside of school and studying, I enjoy playing sports, such as soccer, tennis, and basketball.
I am originally from Milford Pennsylvania, but currently resided in the research triangle of North Carolina. I attended Boston College for my undergraduate education, majoring in Biochemistry and minoring in Medical Humanities. I attend Tufts University School of Medicine for my M.S. in Biomedical Sciences. Next year I will pursue my PhD at Duke University. I love helping tutor and work with students of all ages, helping them to improve their understanding of material and their grades/scores. I hope we can work together to help you achieve your goals.
I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old electronics, playing Pokemon, or picking at my guitar.
I am a graduate of UNC Chapel Hill and an incoming student at Duke Law School who provides tutoring sessions to help students prepare for their SATs. I have experience as a substitute teacher and come from an academic background which has cultivated a passion for educating and helping others succeed. I emphasize practicing SAT test-taking techniques which can help students improve their scores.

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 can identify patterns in their mistakes and teach targeted strategies for the Logic Games, Reading Comprehension, and Logical Reasoning sections. The key is consistent practice combined with expert feedback on your approach, not just more hours studying.
Your first session focuses on understanding where you stand and what you need. Expect to take a diagnostic practice test or review recent practice test results, discuss your target law schools and score goals, and identify which sections are causing the most trouble. From there, your tutor will create a personalized study plan that addresses your specific challenges, whether that's time management on Logic Games, inference questions in Reading Comp, or argument structure in Logical Reasoning.
Logic Games intimidate many students, but they're highly learnable with the right system and practice. A tutor can teach you the diagramming techniques and setup strategies that make games manageable, help you recognize game types quickly, and build your speed through targeted drills. Most importantly, they can watch you work through games in real time, spot where you're getting stuck, and adjust your approach before bad habits form.
Reading Comp requires both understanding dense passages and answering questions accurately under time pressure—two separate skills. Tutors help by teaching active reading strategies that improve comprehension without slowing you down, showing you how to identify question types and what the test makers are really asking, and building your stamina through strategic practice. They'll also help you decide which questions to prioritize and when to move on, so you're not wasting time on trap answers.
Most LSAT experts recommend taking 40-60 full practice tests over your study period to build familiarity and endurance. However, quantity matters less than how you use them—blind timed tests show you where you stand, but the real learning happens in review. A tutor can guide you through practice test analysis, helping you understand why you missed questions, recognize patterns in your mistakes, and adjust your strategy accordingly rather than just retaking tests and hoping for better results.
Most students benefit from 8-12 weeks of focused LSAT preparation, though your timeline depends on your starting score, target score, and how many hours per week you can commit. Students studying for the LSAT typically invest 3-4 hours weekly in tutoring sessions plus independent practice between sessions. A tutor can help you create a realistic timeline based on your goals and adjust your study schedule as you progress.
Test anxiety often stems from feeling unprepared or uncertain about your approach—both things tutoring directly addresses. By the time test day arrives, you'll have practiced hundreds of questions, learned proven strategies, and taken multiple full-length practice tests under timed conditions. Your tutor can also teach you specific techniques for staying calm during the test, managing your pacing so you don't panic, and building confidence through incremental success in your practice sessions.
Look for tutors who have scored well on the LSAT themselves (typically 170+), have significant experience teaching the test, and understand the nuances of each section deeply. Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors who can explain not just what the right answer is, but why the test makers wrote the question that way and how to spot similar patterns. The best tutors combine strong credentials with the ability to adapt their teaching to your learning style and specific weak areas.
