I’m a professional LSAT coach and tutor (nerd!) with over 15 years experience and more than 10,000 hours leading live sessions. I specialize in helping people who've gotten stuck and might need a different approach.
Working with me is meant to be an awesome complement to what 7Sage offers. You know they take basically a kitchen sink approach, giving you a comprehensive breakdown of every detail that has ever appeared on any LSAT passage or question. That's a great resource to have, no doubt. But maybe you're a little frustrated or overwhelmed trying to keep up with all that material, or it's too much to remember while you're taking the test.
And maybe only a really small part of that content represents where your extra points are going to come from.
That's where I come in. My take is you should always know exactly how many more points you need, and have specific intentions set around where those points are going to come from. Everything you do to prep should be organized around the path from your baseline to your target score.
In our first meeting, I'll guide you through a set of diagnostic exercises that will help us identify the main reasons why you're making mistakes. You'll leave with my specific personalized recommendations about how to correct those mistakes, including what you should focus on and adjustments to make in your practice and review. A lot of people are good with self-studying after that.
That's a 1 or 1.5-hour meeting, depending on details we'll talk over when we schedule. I'm available daily, mainly 9 to 5 eastern time, but evenings too occasionally.
I also offer a menu of individual lessons, each targeting a key LSAT skill. Some people do these a la carte, others cover them all in a ~1-month course. In any case, our work together will be tailored to your baseline and target scores, and the time you have left before your exam.

A lot of people I work with also like live drilling, when we can target a particular question type or argument pattern. That might look like me actively walking you through strategy and helping make sure you avoid mistakes, or me observing mostly quietly and only jumping in when you get stuck or ask for feedback. This guided practice style leads to pretty nice score jumps when it's aimed at content that meaningfully represents your missing points.
How much sense is all this making? I love talking about this stuff, so feel free to send me a message if you have a question or want to talk it over more.
@ksom Thanks Katrina! It's been my pleasure.
