I'm a great tutor because I am warm, engaging, funny and I genuinely love to learn. I am good at breaking down larger concepts into more understandable narratives to impart to my students, and I am very astute when it comes to sensing what style of and approach to tutoring is most suited to the student I am working with. I come from a family of teachers and writers, and I love to help students who are struggling academically to re-discover the magic and beauty of learning. It's what makes life worth living!

10th Grade Writing Tutor • +39 Subjects

A good teacher can make an enormous impact on the life of a student. I have seen this firsthand throughout my life. As a student, I learned how to read and write critically because I had teachers who cared, and who invested themselves in my education. Because of these teachers, I have dedicated myself to the education of others. As a tutor, there is nothing more gratifying than having a student report back that a paper got an A, or that a much-feared test was actually a breeze.My goal as your tutor is to remove the fear and anxiety that may surround a subject, and to place there instead something positive--the love of a book, an appreciation for a well-written paragraph, and the confidence to attack any test or assignment with assurance.I hold my Master's Degree in English Curriculum and Instruction for grades 5-12, and I am well-versed in different teaching methods to ensure that a student who works with me has every chance of success. I think that students learn best when they are interested in a topic; my job as a tutor is to stimulate that interest in any way possible. I will motivate and inspire you to be the best student you can be!

Algebra Tutor • +11 Subjects

I am currently a junior at the University of Georgia majoring in risk management and insurance. Since high school, I have tutored a wide variety of subjects, ranging from English to science to math to elementary and middle school students. The thrill watching students figure out something that seemed impossible to them at first is exhilarating; it makes me proud. I try to make learning as fun and easy as possible for students since I know some of the material can be challenging and I like to accommodate to each student. I hope to spread my knowledge inside and outside of the classroom. I like to hang out with friends, go shopping, dance and play piano in my free time.

Priyanka

Algebra Tutor • +18 Subjects

Hi, I'm Priyanka Prasad! I'm a senior Mathematics and Economics major at Butler University. I have minors in Management Information Systems, Business Administration, and French. I've been a Math and Economics tutor throughout my time in college. These are subjects in which many students struggle during high school and college, and I find helping students to feel more confident in them to be so rewarding!In my spare time, I love to travel, learn new languages, cook, dance, and work with young people. I've done this as a freelance tutor for the past 4 years and also through mentorship opportunities through College Mentors for Kids and working as a tutor for refugees for a local school system.Over the course of the past 4 years, I have tutored over 20 high school students for an extended period of time. Many of these tutoring experiences have been specifically for test preparation. During this time, I've greatly enjoyed helping students meet their own academic goals. Of all the types of tutoring I've done over the years, I've found test preparation tutoring to be the most rewarding. Here's why: standardized tests like the SAT and ACT are often high stakes: performance on one test can have quite a large impact on a student's life. Despite this, test taking is a skill many students struggle with. Fortunately, I've found that test taking skills can be taught, and that learning them can improve student's standardized test performance dramatically. It's enjoyable to watch students develop into confident, effective test takers. It's even better to see what doors doing well on essential tests can open for them.I've also tutored 10-15 students as a supplement to in-class instruction for a specific course. Normally, I enjoy working with student on Math, Economics, Reading, and Writing. Most of the students I've tutored have seen an improvement of 2+ letter grades during the time we've worked together.When I first meet a student, I make it a point to learn about the student's interests and goals, both academic and extracurricular. Then, when the student and I are discussing the subject I am teaching them, I help the student make connections between the subject I'm teaching them to something they have a personal interest in. For example, I was recently working with an Economics student who was doing poorly in the course because she believed it was irrelevant to her life aspirations and therefore didn't apply herself to it much. Soon, I learned that my student wanted desperately to become a corporate lawyer. Once I helped her see how economic principles serve as the basis for legal systems (on both a macro and micro level), she was far more interested in Economics. This interest enabled her to exceed her expectations for her course grade by over two letter grades.As someone who has overcome my own personal struggles with lack of organization and timeliness, I have experienced firsthand what it feels like to work hard but still struggle to reach one's academic goals. Since I'm a far more organized and efficient student now than I was as a child (as evidenced by my solid college academic record), I've implemented changes in my study habits and lifestyle which truly worked. When I work with my students, I often share tips with them which worked for me to set them on the right path to academic success: This does two things: admitting that I'm not perfect either to a student takes me off a pedestal and allows me to connect with the student as their equal. Also, it provides the student motivation that they too, like me, can overcome their academic challenges.

Joe

Algebra Tutor • +35 Subjects

I have a Masters of Science in Applied Physics and a Bachelors of Science in Physics from Northern Illinois University and The Ohio State University, respectively. I have been tutoring for 12 years in a range of mathematics and science courses from algebra to AP Calculus and physics to astronomy, respectively. I tutored math at a private tutoring center where I became very adept at helping students of varying ages, approximately 5 to 18.While earning my masters degree I taught introductory physics laboratories for two years. I have also been a math instructor at a second private learning center where I learned techniques in helping students not only academically but boost their confidence, enhance their strengths and recognize as well as work on their weaknesses. When tutoring, I teach students how ask the appropriate questions to help them solve their problems. I start by asking leading questions and get the student to reason through the problem rather than simply showing them or having them memorize procedures. This method gets them to be an active participate and not merely an "audience of one." I believe that each student is unique and I tailor my methods of teaching to fit their needs. Many problems can be explained in multiple ways, different ways benefiting different students. For example, some students work better visually and some through auditory means.I enjoy helping students learn because I like sharing the knowledge I spent considerable time acquiring with others and helping make it theirs, too. I particularly enjoy tutoring mathematics and science to educate and inspire the next generation of scientists and engineers. My favorite subjects to teach are physics and astronomy. Outside of academia, amateur astronomy, along with grilling and watching and reading science fiction are my hobbies.

English Tutor • +19 Subjects

As both a student and an educator, I recognize that education is largely a collaborative and contextual exercise. We each bring with us our own strengths, challenges, hopes, and ambitions and it is important that we are open about these, so as to recognize how they might help and impede our learning! My experience in the contextual exercise of education is primarily in the high school setting, where I have taught history and literature. However, I have also worked with younger students and those with learning differences in a variety of different subjects. I am both a teacher and a continuing scholar. Thus, I recognize the need to apply some of my own pedagogical ideas to my ongoing studies! I am inspired by students that are able to discover something of themselves within the subjects they are working on.I hold an MTS degree from Villanova University, where I specialized in Christianity in late antiquity. I present on a variety of topics regarding history and Christianity in antiquity at conferences, and will begin doctoral work next year in Syriac studies. I look forward to learning alongside you!

Frequently Asked Questions

Colorado's bar exam includes the Uniform Bar Exam (UBE) components—the Multistate Essay Exam (MEE), Multistate Performance Test (MPT), and Multistate Multiple Choice (MBE)—but also requires Colorado-specific essays and performance tasks focused on Colorado Rules of Professional Conduct and state procedural rules. The Colorado portion typically accounts for 25-30% of your total score, making deep knowledge of state-specific law and ethics essential. Many test-takers underestimate this component and focus too heavily on uniform materials, which is a common reason for failing the Colorado portion specifically.

The Colorado-specific essays—particularly those testing Colorado Rules of Professional Conduct, state court procedure, and property law as applied under Colorado statute—trip up many candidates who studied primarily UBE materials. The MPT (performance test) also challenges test-takers who haven't practiced time management under pressure; many run out of time on the second task. Additionally, the intersection of federal and Colorado law in areas like family law and civil procedure causes confusion, since Colorado courts often apply unique interpretations that differ from the UBE model answers. Personalized tutoring addresses these gaps by drilling Colorado-specific scenarios and teaching the strategic approach to allocating time across all three exam components.

The MPT requires you to complete two realistic legal tasks (like drafting a memo, contract, or brief) in 90 minutes total—roughly 45 minutes per task. The key is reading the instructions and file materials strategically: identify what you're being asked to do before diving into the facts, then extract only relevant information from sometimes lengthy files. Colorado test-takers often lose points by over-explaining or including irrelevant law, rather than by missing substantive content. A tutor experienced with Colorado Bar Exam prep can teach you the specific format preferences Colorado graders use and help you practice under timed conditions to build the speed and accuracy needed to score competitively on this section.

The MBE represents roughly 50% of your total score and covers Contracts, Torts, Civil Procedure, Criminal Law, Criminal Procedure, Evidence, and Real Property—all tested uniformly across states. However, many Colorado test-takers score well on the MBE but fail overall because they neglect the Colorado-specific essays and performance test. A balanced approach typically dedicates 50-60% of study time to mastering MBE subjects (with practice questions and drills), while 40-50% focuses on Colorado Rules of Professional Conduct, state procedure, and Colorado-specific essay patterns. A tutor can help you identify which MBE subjects are your weakest areas and prioritize accordingly, while simultaneously building your Colorado law knowledge in parallel.

Colorado's bar examiners prioritize ethics and professional responsibility because they directly reflect the Colorado Supreme Court's expectations for licensed attorneys. Questions testing Colorado RPC often appear embedded in essay fact patterns rather than as standalone ethics questions, requiring you to spot ethical issues while also analyzing substantive law. Common problem areas include conflicts of interest under Colorado RPC 1.7, fee arrangements and billing under Colorado RPC 1.5, and candor to tribunals under Colorado RPC 3.3. Test-takers frequently miss these issues because they focus on the substantive legal question (like contract formation) and overlook the ethical dimension. Targeted tutoring helps you develop the habit of identifying ethical issues first, which significantly improves your score on Colorado-specific essays.

An effective Colorado Bar Exam tutor should be a licensed Colorado attorney with recent bar exam teaching or tutoring experience—ideally someone who has taught the exam or reviewed actual Colorado bar exam essays. They should be deeply familiar with the specific Colorado-law topics tested (Colorado Rules of Professional Conduct, state court procedure, and common essay subjects like family law and property), and have access to or experience with actual Colorado bar exam questions and grading rubrics. Beyond subject knowledge, they should excel at teaching time management and essay structure under pressure, since the performance test and essays require strategic pacing. Look for tutors who can provide sample Colorado essays, explain grading standards, and give you realistic feedback on your practice work.

Colorado bar examiners expect a clear IRAC structure (Issue, Rule, Analysis, Conclusion) with specific attention to Colorado law and statutes. However, many test-takers write essays that are too long or unfocused, losing points for poor organization rather than missing law. Colorado graders reward concise, well-organized essays that identify the key issues, state the applicable Colorado law accurately, apply it to the facts, and reach a logical conclusion—all within the time limit. Common mistakes include spending too much time on background law, failing to address all issues raised by the facts, or burying your analysis in lengthy paragraphs. A tutor can teach you a Colorado-specific essay template, help you practice under timed conditions, and provide feedback on your actual essays so you understand what graders are looking for.

Most test-takers dedicate 8-12 weeks of full-time study (or 4-6 months of part-time study) to prepare for the Colorado Bar Exam. If you're using a bar review course, tutoring is most effective starting 4-6 weeks into your study plan, once you've completed the foundational lectures and are beginning to practice essays and performance tests. At that point, a tutor can identify your specific weak areas—whether it's Colorado law gaps, time management on the MPT, or essay organization—and provide targeted instruction. Some test-takers benefit from tutoring earlier if they struggled with certain MBE subjects in law school, or later if they're retaking the exam and need focused work on Colorado-specific content. Personalized tutoring accelerates your progress by targeting exactly what you need rather than generic review materials.
