I am happy to accommodate and work with learners on the spectrum.

I am a graduate from Georgetown University, where I received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Mathematics with a minor in Music. I'm currently pursuing a Master's of Science in Business Analytics at Carnegie Mellon University. I've been tutoring since I started high school, focusing on mathematics and writing. Throughout my college career I was employed both privately and by Georgetown University to tutor peers and high school students in the Washington, D.C. area. I worked with students taking classes in all levels of mathematics falling under Algebra, Calculus, Combinatorics, and Problem Solving.
I'm a first-year med student at Pitt Med. I graduated from Tufts University in Medford, Massachusetts with a BS in Biology this past May. As much as I love medicine and the hard sciences, most of my tutoring experience is in general ACT prep, in addition to academic and creative writing, middle school math and reading, and high school and college math. Some of my favorite all-time classes were medical sociology in college and AP US Government and Politics in high school. Through Tufts, I taught English as a second language (3 semesters) and citizenship exam prep (1 semester) to Hispanic immigrants and refugees, which taught me a lot about how to gauge students' understanding, teach tough subjects, plan activities, provide flashcards and the best possible study materials, and make the most of the students' time. I love tutoring because I know how much a tutor's patience one-on-one can make the difference. I love sharing my study tips and test-taking strategies so they can study efficiently and make the best use of their time to get that desired result. I want students to feel heard and supported and help them find methods best suited to them. I want to help students enjoy learning and find more confidence in themselves through mastering tough subject matter.
I am in my second year at MIT studying mathematics, and I am currently doing a research project in Spectral Graph Theory. I have been a tutor since my junior year in high school, and I enjoy teaching all levels of math; everything from pre-algebra through calculus and linear algebra! I focus primarily on making sure that the definitions and processes given in class make intuitive sense, so that math can begin to feel like second nature.
I am an undergraduate student at the University of Pennsylvania. I have been tutoring for over 6 years now, and I have found it to be an extremely rewarding and enjoyable experience. I specialize in mathematics, particularly at the high school level, and I also have experience tutoring other subjects. I also have done SAT prep for the mathematics section of the New SAT and am very familiar with the recent changes to the exam. My belief is that everyone is capable of learning with enough time, explanation, and practice, and I hope to pass this on to all the students I work with. For this reason, I believe in teaching students how to think and problem solve, rather than just having them memorize patterns or facts.
I am finishing up my first year at Princeton University, still undecided but leaning towards studying Sociology. I have experience working with pre-K students through adults in a variety of topics ranging from environmental education to conversational English practice. I spent a year in Indonesia working at a disability rights NGO and helping my adult coworkers as well as elementary school- and college-aged students develop English language skills. I am very passionate about educational equity, and want to assist all students in accessing strong educational resources. I am able to tutor a wide range of topics, from standardized test prep to English to elementary/middle school Math and more. I also play violin and can help students with music theory, composition and general violin skills as well.
I am a student at the University of Pittsburgh, graduating in May with a major in Neuroscience and minors in Chemistry and Spanish. I've been teaching and tutoring for a year and a half as an Undergraduate Teaching Assistant in the Chemistry department, working with students one on one and in small groups in General and Organic Chemistry. As a pre-medical student and a Neuroscience major, I've taken extensive coursework in biology, physiology, physics and math, so I am qualified to tutor those subjects as well.
I'm just not very good at it." People tend to not be very excited about topics that they don't understand. Teachers and grades have been making them feel bad whenever they come to class, and there is nothing more frustrating than studying for hours and still not getting any concept. These sorts of things can make someone feel defeated or unintelligent. To that end, the simplest way to get a student to become excited about learning is to counteract these negative effects with healthier, positive learning strategies. When students seriously get something, don't move on immediately to the next topic, but instead dwell on what they get for a while, solidifying it and making them feel intelligent and like future concepts are within their grasp. Build pride in each student for the progress and work they complete so that they are eager to master each concept. In addition, to get students more engaged in topics, I try to emphasize the real-world applications of anything I teach. As an applied mathematics major, I can appreciate more than most how the subjects people study can affect the real world. So when students groan "When am I ever going to have to use this?" I can actually give a satisfying answer that will make them realize how powerful what they learn really is. This tends to make students less dismissive and care a lot more about the concepts at hand. While I can't promise that these methods will make a student love their school subjects as much as sports or video games, they tend to make them appreciate and care about the material as well as feel validated by it. In turn, this leads to a much more serious and sustained effort and enjoyment of the subject.
I am anticipating starting a master's program in the fall. When I'm not working I enjoy playing and watching basketball, reading and exercise. I love learning and I am eager to share my skills and knowledge with others.
I am a current Sophomore Mechanical Engineering student at Messiah College in Mechanicsburg, PA. I graduated Upper St. Clair High School in 2018, and took just about every AP math and science course there is. I have extensive knowledge in these subjects, and enjoy helping others to understand them! In my free time, I enjoy running cross country and track, playing percussion, and hanging out with my friends!
I am currently an undergraduate studying Statistics and Machine Learning + Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University. At CMU, I am an undergraduate research assistant for the AI for Intelligent Tutoring Systems Team, and I am a teaching assistant for Fundamentals of Programming. My teaching philosophy centers on fostering a supportive learning environment where students feel empowered to tackle challenging concepts. I believe in using real-world applications to make math relatable and engaging, which helps my students build confidence and achieve academic success. I am passionate about tutoring because I enjoy seeing students overcome obstacles and progress over time, while developing a love for the subject. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy tennis, playing violin in an orchestra, and delving into literary classics.
I am also studying music at Yale, where I have taken rigorous courses in music theory, musicianship, and piano performance. I would be able to tutor in those subjects as well. I currently have a 4.0 GPA at Yale.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Logical Reasoning section tests your ability to analyze arguments, identify assumptions, and evaluate the strength of conclusions. You'll encounter two Logical Reasoning sections on the LSAT, each with about 25 questions you need to complete in 35 minutes. This section rewards careful reading and systematic thinking—skills that tutors can help you develop through targeted practice and feedback.
Many students struggle with pacing—trying to read arguments too quickly and missing key details that determine the right answer. Others find it difficult to identify the argument's structure (premises vs. conclusion) or to spot common logical fallacies. A third challenge is distinguishing between answer choices that seem similar. Working with a tutor can help you slow down strategically, develop a consistent approach to each question type, and build confidence in your reasoning.
You'll see questions like Strengthen/Weaken the Argument, Assumption, Main Point, Inference, Flaw in the Reasoning, and Parallel Reasoning. Each question type has its own logic and requires a slightly different approach. Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who specialize in breaking down each question type, teaching you the patterns to look for, and helping you practice until these distinctions become automatic.
Effective timing comes from having a reliable system: reading the argument once carefully, identifying the conclusion and main premises, then evaluating each answer choice against what you know. Many students rush and have to re-read, which wastes time. Tutors can teach you a structured approach, help you practice at a sustainable pace, and show you how to recognize when to move on versus when to spend extra seconds on a tricky question.
Score improvement depends on your starting point and how consistently you practice, but most students see meaningful gains—often 3–7 points on the LSAT scale—within 4–8 weeks of focused work. The key is identifying your specific weak areas (certain question types, pacing issues, or reasoning gaps) and drilling those systematically. A tutor can diagnose exactly where you're losing points and create a targeted study plan to address those gaps.
Start by taking full practice tests untimed to understand question types and build accuracy, then gradually add time pressure. After each test, review every Logical Reasoning question—not just the ones you missed, but also ones you got right but guessed on. A tutor can help you analyze your performance patterns, identify recurring mistakes, and create a study schedule that spaces out practice strategically, which research shows leads to better retention and improvement.
Look for someone with strong LSAT performance themselves, experience teaching the specific question types, and the ability to explain reasoning clearly. It helps if they understand your learning style and can adapt their teaching approach. Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors for students in Pittsburgh who have proven track records on the LSAT and know how to break down complex arguments in ways that make sense.
Your tutor will typically assess your current level by reviewing a few practice questions or a timed section, then ask about your goals and timeline. They'll identify your strongest and weakest question types, discuss any timing or confidence issues, and outline a personalized study plan. By the end of the first session, you'll have clarity on what to focus on and concrete strategies to start using immediately.
