About
Hello Students! I began my LSAT journey at a 143 and worked my way through a 152, a 158, a 165, and ultimately a 180. That progression matters, because it means I didn’t start out with an intuitive or natural advantage—I built my score deliberately, step by step, by identifying weaknesses, correcting flawed reasoning habits, and refining my approach over time. Having experienced each major score plateau firsthand, I understand exactly what blocks students at different stages, whether it’s basic argument comprehension, conditional reasoning, timing issues, or the subtle mistakes that separate high-160s from elite scores. As a tutor, I focus on building durable analytical skills that transfer across questions and sections. I emphasize understanding why correct answers must be correct and why wrong answers are designed to look appealing, which helps students gain confidence and consistency under timed conditions. Students who work with me typically leave sessions with a clear plan, a sharper understanding of their mistakes, and concrete strategies they can immediately apply on future sections. My approach is structured, methodical, and adaptable to each student’s current score range and learning style. Because I’ve personally navigated the full improvement arc, I can diagnose problems quickly and explain concepts in ways that actually click. I know how frustrating it can be to feel “stuck,” and I also know that meaningful improvement comes from disciplined reasoning rather than brute repetition. My goal is not just to raise scores, but to teach students how to think the way the LSAT demands. Rather than assigning endless problem sets, I focus on deliberate analysis. This approach helps students develop independence and confidence. Whether you’re aiming to break into the 150s, push into the 160s, or refine a strong score into an elite one, my goal is to meet you where you are and help you move forward efficiently and confidently. I look forward to working with you!

Working with Branden was a breeze from start to finish and I would highly recommend him to anybody looking for an LSAT tutor. I saw my practice scores rise significantly from the beginning of our time together until the end, with my first score in the 140's, and my final practice test being a 170.Branden has a thorough understanding of the different types of LSAT questions, breaks them down in an organized and easy to understand way, and will spend as much time needed on one question to make sure you understand it. If he asks if explanation makes sense, and it doesn't, say no! as he will re word it as many times as necessary until it makes sense for you.A unique advantage I found with Branden was his vast knowledge of every facet of the LSAT, from securing accommodations, to test day materials, registering and getting set up, etc.He was very flexible to reschedule, always willing to answer questions outside of the lesson, would stay past time if he didn't have another student, and cares that you achieve your target score!Update: final score on my first attempt was a 171 - 97 percentile!

I cant recommend Branden enough. I first tried studying for the LSAT on my own, but I had no direction and struggled to stay motivated. After scoring a 168 in September, I reached out to him less than five weeks before my November retake. In that short time he helped me jump to a PT high score of 177 a few days before the official exam. Through targeted LR work and clear identification of my weak spots, he has made the test feel almost intuitive. Hes also genuinely kind and easy to talk to. I felt comfortable working through problems and explaining my thought processes from the very beginning, and even when I was frustrated, he stayed encouraging and never let me feel anything less than capable. He struck the perfect balance between offering support and pushing me to think independently. I havent received my November score yet (Ill update this when I do!), but I went into the exam calm, confident, and fully prepared, and Im not anxious waiting for the results, which says everything.

Thank you so much, Mary — that means a lot. You put in such incredible focus these past few weeks, and it showed in how quickly everything started to click. I really admired how you trusted the process, stayed open to feedback, and kept pushing even when things got tough. Seeing your confidence and calm going into the exam was honestly the best part. I’m so proud of the progress you made, and I can’t wait to hear how the official score turns out!

I couldnt have reached the level of growth and success in my LSAT preparation without Branden's invaluable guidance and expertise. From day one, he demonstrated a genuine commitment to understanding my unique needs and learning style, which allowed him to craft a customized framework specifically tailored to optimize my performance. Branden's insights and strategies not only helped me master the material but also boosted my confidence in my ability to excel. His personalized approach has been instrumental in my progress, and I am deeply grateful for the support and knowledge he has provided throughout this journey.
