About Isaac


Bio

After achieving National Merit Scholar status with a 99th percentile PSAT score and a perfect score (800) on the SAT math section, as well as 4's and 5's on seven different AP exams, I attended University of Southern California on merit scholarship. While working on my degree in Neuroscience I worked part-time tutoring high school math and science.

After achieving National Merit Scholar status with a 99th percentile PSAT score and a perfect score (800) on the SAT math section, as well as 4's and 5's on seven different AP exams, I attended University of Southern California on merit scholarship. While working on my degree in Neuroscience I worked part-time tutoring high school math and science. After graduating I worked in schools for a number of years, then made tutoring my full-time profession. In June 2024 I will have been tutoring full-time for five school years. I received a 173 on my LSATs and will be attending Washington University in Saint Louis this fall on merit scholarship.

I primarily serve high school and college students. I have also helped graduate students complete the statistics requirements in their programs, supporting work that requires STATA and SPSS. My approach uses guiding questions to build comprehension. I will often demonstrate a problem, provide guidance, then supervise the student complete a substantially similar problem on their own to demonstrate mastery. The majority of my work is with homework help and practice exams for courses, but I also provide instruction for standardized tests including the SAT math section, GRE math section, and all sections of the LSAT. I like to keep my sessions positive and humorous but always goal-oriented. Students that like me best are self-motivated, ambitious, and curious. I am available for weekly recurring as well as drop-in sessions.

Engaging Style and Approach

Issac was so engaging and shared new methods that challenges how you think. He is a great teacher and has helped me tremendously on how I approach different problems

David, 7 lessons with Isaac

The BEST tutor

Isaac is tutoring for my LSAT. I struggle the MOST in Logic Games and I can already tell that I have improved. He is patient, kind, doesn’t make me feel uncomfortable or incompetent when I don’t know the answer or understand the question.

LSAT Logic Games

I came to Isaac really struggling with logic games: how to graph them, how to understand them, and how to think in a way that the LSAT requires. Having met with Isaac over the course of about 2 months, I've observed my ability to understand, graph, and solve logic games transform significantly. Isaac does a great job of making your appointments worth while. He is patient and passionate and welcome to all questions. He has a lot of knowledge about the LSAT in and of itself by virtue of taking it so many times, and the tips he gave were really helpful and I found myself applying them consistently throughout my studying and on exam day. I just sat for the November 2023 LSAT and can confidently say that I would not have felt nearly as prepared before and after had it not been for Isaac. HIGHLY recommend.

Knowledge and Patient Tutor

Isaac came in clutch to help me complete a difficult homework assignment and study for my exam in a short period of time. I really enjoyed his patience and explanations which were extremely helpful. I will use him again in my next math class.

Mia, 7 lessons with Isaac

Issac is great.

Isaac is very knowledgeable in math, he is patient, and friendly, I would recommend him to anyone. I have 2 classes left to graduate and he will definitely be my tutor for both of them.

Douglas, 4 lessons with Isaac

Excellent session

We went over a sample exam on partial derivatives, limits, and extrema of multivariable functions. Isaac was prepared and had gone through the test prior to the session.

Great tutor! Highly recommended! Look no further for one of the best tutors around. Issac made me feel like I was actually soaking in the material. Clearing up a lot of things that did not make sense.

Fantastic teacher!

Isaac was very patient and broke everything down into much more understandable terms; he made sure not to move on until I understood the answer, and he was satisfied with the steps he took to get the solution.
