Ideal experiments, phenomenon-hypothesis structure, and alternative explanations—these are just a few of the things to keep track of in questions that use causal reasoning, one of the key logic patterns on the LSAT. This class is a chance to solidify the essentials and make sure you have a solid understanding of the different forms that causal reasoning can take.

Ryan has a degree in geology and psychology from Texas State University, graduating from the honors college. He has taught the LSAT for 8 years, helping innumerable students get into T14 law schools. 

His tutoring philosophy is to begin by helping students learn the question types in logical reasoning; he believes students should be able to explain, in their own words, what the questions are ultimately asking and how to approach the text in those questions. He has students write their own notes, based on the 7sage core curriculum, making their own “instruction manual” for each question type. He loves to see students improve their understanding of our language, and he loves to see students accomplish their goals and achieve their dreams. 

In his free time, Ryan likes to read, write fiction, and swim laps at the local spring fed pool.
