About Scott

Bio

Experience and specialization create two major advantages: deeper understanding of the tests themselves and better recognition of how students tend to struggle with them. As a result, I’m often able to recognize quickly why students are struggling and which aspects of the test are creating the problem.

Because of that, I can identify where a student needs focused help and turn difficult concepts into practical, manageable processes students can apply immediately.

Because of that, I can identify where a student needs focused help and turn difficult concepts into practical, manageable processes students can apply immediately.

My approach emphasizes creating clear top-down structure above all else. My students are taught simple but precise execution, repeatable processes, structured reading and reasoning, and how to maintain consistency under pressure.

Approved Subjects

GMAT

GMAT

I’ve spent over 15 years helping students prepare for the GMAT, and that experience shows up in how I guide them through all three sections in a clear, practical way. For Quant, I focus on strengthening the underlying math while also improving how students work through problem setups efficiently. For Verbal, the focus is on breaking down arguments and moving through passages with clarity and control. For Data Insights, I teach the core structures and purposes behind the different charts, tables, and graphs so students know what to expect and how to approach them with confidence. I also work with students on evaluating answer choices more effectively, which leads to better pacing, stronger accuracy, and more consistent performance across the test.
Grammar

Grammar

I help students understand how sentences actually work—not just memorize rules. By making the structure of English clear and visible, students learn how to identify the main idea, see how parts connect, and use tools like sentence diagramming with confidence. My approach is step-by-step and supportive, designed especially for middle and high school students, but also perfectly suited for adults as well. The result is stronger reading, clearer writing, and real confidence with grammar.
GRE

GRE

I have over 15 years of experience helping students prepare for the GRE, and that experience shows up in how I guide them through the test in a clear and practical way. I work with students to strengthen both the core math skills and the higher-level thinking the Quant section requires, while also building manageable vocabulary study habits and more efficient ways to read and understand passages. A big part of my focus is helping students recognize what makes answer choices work — and why others don’t — so they can make more confident decisions. Over time, this leads to stronger accuracy, better timing, and a more consistent overall performance.
LSAT

LSAT

The LSAT is not just a collection of question types and isolated tactics. Strong performance requires a simple, precise, and consistent top-down structure that keeps the entire test organized and executable under pressure. That’s where the teaching starts. The lower-level techniques and detailed answer processes absolutely matter, but they work best when organized within a clear overall framework. For Logical Reasoning, we build repeatable processes for handling question types and answer choices in a controlled and organized way. For Reading Comprehension, we focus heavily on building big-picture understanding one sentence at a time so passages become clearer, more manageable, and more efficient to read. The goal is to make the LSAT organized, understandable, and consistently executable
Personal Statements

Personal Statements

I’ve worked with a few hundred students on personal statements, helping them gain admission to the programs they were targeting. My approach centers on showing a clear, thoughtful connection between the student and the specific department, using real details from the program to demonstrate fit. I also guide students away from overused or generic language and toward presenting their experiences in a more focused and meaningful way. The result is a more targeted, compelling statement that stands out to admissions committees.
Reading

Reading

I teach students (from 8th grade through adulthood) how to read in a clear, structured way so they’re actually in control of the material in front of them. By focusing on how sentences and paragraphs are built, students learn to identify the main idea, follow how it develops, and separate what matters from what doesn’t. The approach is simple, supportive, and highly repeatable. The result is a lifetime of stronger comprehension, better retention, and more confident reading.
SAT Reading

SAT Reading

I’m a professional tutor with 15+ years of test-prep experience and years of classroom teaching at the middle school, high school, and college levels. I specialize in SAT Reading, helping students build the comprehension, reasoning, and passage-strategy skills needed for strong, reliable performance. I meet students at any level—beginner, plateaued, or advanced—and provide all lesson materials plus a clear, structured plan using official SAT practice tests for benchmarking.

Very knowledgable and patient

Patient and brilliant leader.

Scott explains everything so well, and never gets frustrated with questions! Very knowledgeable on the LSAT and what I need to work on. Without the guidance of Scott I would've been completely lost.

Great Teacher, Surpassed my score goals

Scott is an awesome tutor. He’s straightforward and very supportive. Ultimately, how well you do on the GRE is up to you. But having someone in your corner to point out what you need to be focusing on is key. Scott really provides the right resources and points you in the right direction. And he just generally kept morale up, which is invaluable. I got a better score than I even expected. Can’t recommend him more highly!

Extremely dedicated and knowledgeable !

Scott is a very knowledgeable and skilled Grammer tutor! My son needed help within a short period of time to get thru a required accelerated 4 week Grammer college prerequisite. Look no further if you need a Grammer specialist Scott is your tutor!

Very knowledgeable and patient.

Scott is super patient with me which makes me feel very comfortable. He doesn’t judge me if I don’t know the definition of a word or a a simple answer to a simple question. He’s also provides great techniques for the different GRE subjects, which has really been helping me. He breaks everything down and makes it a lot easier for me to understand.
