I am a law school graduate with a JD and an additional certificate of concentration in international law and emphasis in business law. In addition to courses such as international business transactions, business entities, payment systems, and land use law I have taken all core legal courses. The core legal requirements are as follows: torts, constitutional law, civil procedure, contracts, real property, legal research, professional legal conduct, and evidence.

I also have a B.A. in English Literature with a focus on Shakespeare, post- cold war writers, authors of the Victorian era and many, many other time periods. I am well versed in classical reads and most books and authors used by middle schools, high schools and colleges for analytical, intellectual papers and all levels of admissions essays. I also published my senior thesis while in undergrad.

I am patient, kind and have a very positive attitude and I am willing to work with any and all skill levels. I am a firm believer that there is never a dumb question and that building confidence slowly and surely is key to improving not just grades, but ability to feel secure in the classroom setting and later in life.

Study Skills

Study Skills

I am a law school graduate with a JD. Effective study skills and habits are developed at a young age. To be highly successful in academia, a student should develop a solid foundation of study habits. Despite how challenging this can be, it is always possible and will pay off in any and all academic pursuits down the road. Learning how you study best and most effectively is essential for success in high school, college and graduate school. Learning how to use your time wisely (time management) is en equally important study skill. Each student is unique and needs a personalized study plan tailored to their needs that utilizes their strengths and helps to improve upon their weaknesses. It is important for students to realize that studying is not just about memorizing material, but also understanding the material so they can communicate their knowledge to a teacher or professor who is grading their test or paper. A quiet, focused environment, free from distractions such as cell phones and the TV is essential and computers should be used appropriately for academics only during designated study times.

Incredible Guidance Throughout the Law School Admissions Process

I had an incredible experience working with Amanda as my LSAT and law school admissions consultant. I first reached out to her after receiving a lower score than I had hoped for. With limited time to retake the test and submit applications for the upcoming cycle, I felt overwhelmed and defeated. Amanda brought so much clarity, not just to the test itself, but to the entire process. Her ability to break down complex LSAT concepts made studying far less daunting, and she helped me see that law school was still within reach. Beyond her expertise, Amanda is extremely personable. I cannot emphasize enough how much she truly cares about her students. She is always willing to work around my schedule, even at odd hours, to make sure I stayed on track. I genuinely looked forward to our sessions and always left them feeling more confident and prepared. My only regret is that I didn't find Amanda sooner! I would recommend Amanda a hundred times over to anyone looking to tackle the law school admissions process. I am beyond grateful for her support, and with her help, I'm proud to say that I will be attending law school this fall.

Great LSAT Tutor

Amanda and I worked together on logical reasoning questions for a couple of months, and I saw a vast improvement in my LR scores. She taught me how to work through my thought process when I was answering questions so I could correct how I thought about tricky questions and thus improve my accuracy. We also went over many different question types, which helped me recognize patterns in questions and improve my timing. I just got a 169 on my June LSAT, and I am very grateful for Amanda's help and knowledge.

Guidance That Truly Makes a Difference

First and foremost, I would like to thank Amanda for the hard work, dedication, and care she poured into helping me craft my essays. When we began our first session, I thought my essays only needed a quick read-through to be ready. After all, every counselor I had worked with previously assured me my essays were perfect. But I couldn’t have been more wrong. When Amanda read through my essays, her expression said it all: I needed a rewrite—not because my essay was bad, but because my personal statement lacked the essential “me” element. I didn’t fully grasp what she meant at first, but as we worked on the rewrite and subsequent edits, it became clear. After the first draft, I knew Amanda was the right counselor for me. From that point on, Amanda and I worked closely to craft essays that brought my authentic self to the forefront and truly reflected how my life experiences have shaped who I am. Her feedback throughout the process was incredibly valuable, providing clarity and insight that helped me refine my ideas and create a statement I was proud of. Not only is Amanda extremely knowledgeable about the law school application process, but she also works tirelessly to ensure sessions run smoothly. She even accommodated me at inconvenient times when needed. Amanda never dismisses ideas or imposes her views; instead, she collaborates with you to incorporate your strengths into a compelling piece of writing. I am truly fortunate to have had Amanda as my counselor. Her expertise and guidance have undoubtedly elevated my application tenfold. Choosing Amanda will undoubtedly be one of the best investments you make in your journey.
