LSAT Tutoring

Your LSAT score shapes both where you get into law school and how much scholarship money you receive. A 5-point swing can be the difference between a regional school and a T14 — and between sticker price and a full ride.

Why the LSAT is hard

The LSAT isn’t a knowledge test. There’s no syllabus to memorize and no content to cover. It tests skills — reading carefully under time pressure, breaking apart arguments, identifying assumptions, and writing tight prose — that most students haven’t been trained in explicitly. Improvement comes from drilling specific question types until you recognize their patterns, not from studying harder.

Most self-studiers plateau because they keep practicing without diagnosing what’s actually slowing them down. I work with LSAT students to find the bottleneck and break through it.

My LSAT background

I scored a 175 on the LSAT. Before law school, I worked as a high school teacher and as an instructor for two major LSAT test prep companies, where I built a track record of moving student scores. I’ve tutored the LSAT one-on-one for many years since.

Because I've taught inside major test prep programs, I can work alongside whatever you’re already doing — PowerScore, Blueprint, 7Sage, Kaplan, Manhattan Prep, your own self-study plan, or no plan at all. I often teach from the PowerScore Bibles, but I'm fully flexible and can tailor instruction to any preferred materials or strategy. I’m a complement to whatever you’re using, not a replacement.

How I work with LSAT students

The first session is diagnostic. We look at your timed practice tests — not just the score, but where you’re losing points: question type, reading approach, timing collapse, anxiety patterns. From there, I build a study plan around your specific weaknesses and your timeline.

A typical engagement includes:

  • Diagnostic analysis of your practice test history to identify what's actually costing you points

  • Targeted drilling on the question types you miss most, with detailed review of why correct answers work and wrong answers tempt

  • Timing strategy — how to pace, when to skip, how to handle the unscored section

  • Reading comprehension frameworks for handling dense passages efficiently

  • Argumentative Writing prep for the now-graded writing section, including reusable structural templates

  • Custom practice sets with detailed feedback

Sessions are remote and scheduled around your timeline.
