Matthew's MBE Strategies Were Extremely Helpful

I booked a few sessions with Matthew in the last couple weeks before the bar exam and his MBE strategies helped me increase my average score on MBE sets. His tips for MEE's also helped me structure my answers in a way that made my analyses much stronger. Overall, he's a very knowledgable tutor and I would 100% recommend him to anyone who needs help!

Phenomenal tutor for the PA Bar Exam!

Matthew is an amazing tutor! He has so many tricks and tips for handling the MBE and essay portion for the bar exam. He also helped build my confidence and feel prepared for test day. Even after our tutoring sessions, he was more than happy to answer any questions I had and help strategize for the bar exam. I highly recommend Matthew!

Tutor responded:

I am so glad I had the opportunity to work with you in preparation of a very difficult exam. Best of luck to your continued success in the legal profession!

Great MEE Tutor!

Meeting with Matthew was really helpful for preparing for the MEE. I had written a couple essays before our session and we went over them together basically line by line. He had great tips for refining my essays and making everything really clear for the reader/grader. I’ll be scheduling another session soon!
