LSAT prep: a guide for pros
What customers ask, how to win the job, and what to put on your profile.
Offering lsat prep
You prepare law school applicants for the logical reasoning, reading and writing sections of the LSAT. Your sessions work best when you start with a timed diagnostic and teach the structure of arguments before any timed drills.
What customers ask
- Can you guarantee a score?
- Do you teach law?
- How do you teach logical reasoning?
- How many practice tests will we do?
- What should I bring?
- How long until the test?
How to win the job
- On the first call, ask the applicant's target school, the test date, the target and any past scores, then say what the diagnostic will show
- Run a timed diagnostic in the first session and share the section results with the applicant
- Teach argument structure with a simple map the applicant can use on any question
- Put the number of sessions, length, practice test count, materials and cancellation terms in the quote
- Review each wrong answer with the applicant and write the reason the correct answer is correct
- Send a short note after each session with the question type covered and the next practice set
What to put on your profile
- Your academic background in logic, law or reasoning, and any test prep training you have
- The sections and levels you prepare applicants for
- Whether you tutor in person, online or both
- Results you can share with permission, without promising future results
- Your background check, shown on your profile, if you work with minors
Follow-up that helps the customer
- A practice test schedule for the next four weeks
- A session on one question type that the practice test showed
- A reading passage session for applicants who lose focus
- A check-in after the real test to review the next steps
Licenses and permits
No license is usually required to tutor for a law school admissions exam privately. You teach test skills, not legal advice. Keep your degree or teaching credentials on your profile, and check with your state or local licensing agency for any rules that apply if you offer test prep through a school or program.
Questions
Do I need a law degree to tutor for the LSAT?
No, but you should be clear about your background. Show your degree and the sections you have taught, and say that you teach test skills rather than legal advice.
How do I handle an applicant who only wants to memorize the question types?
Show them that the same argument structure applies across question types. Let them practice mapping one argument, so the map does the work instead of memory.
