Esther

1st Grade Reading Tutor • +57 Subjects

I have recently graduated from the Burnett Honors College at the University of Central Florida with a Bachelors degree in Biomedical Sciences. This upcoming year I am going to the Institute of Human Nutrition at Columbia University to get an MS in Nutrition and Metabolism.I have been a tutor for college students for 2 years at my university, teaching Organic Chemistry 1 and General Chemistry. I've also helped high school students with college admission essays, and with kindergartners in the Junior Achievement program.I enjoy working with children and finding creative ways for them to learn the material and to try to inspire a desire to learn by making learning fun for them. I also really enjoy teaching general chemistry, because I find the material fascinating. When I tutor a student, I don't just give them the answers, but rather I guide them to the answers. It is important that a student learns how to find the answers themselves so they do not become dependent on outside sources.

Algebra Tutor • +30 Subjects

I am currently a student at the University of Missouri Kansas City as a part of their 6 year direct medical program. Medicine is my passion, and I'm thrilled that we are able to interview patients in the hospital and learn from them very early on in the process.The best teachers I've ever had have been more than just adults. They were passionate about the material they taught, and that passion was carried over to me. That is the main thing I hope to show students. A passion that will help them understand the material better.One of my favorite parts of tutoring is getting to know the students' learning style and how they think. The best part is that I have just recently taken all the subjects I have listed to tutor in. The information is fresh in my mind, so I can approach the content from many different angles to help the student understand the material.Outside of school, I spend a lot of my time at Buffalo Wild Wings, hands down the best wings I have ever eaten. Consequently, I also spend a lot of my time exercising - usually swimming or weightlifting.

"You got a dream... You gotta protect it. People can't do somethin' themselves, they wanna tell you you can't do it. If you want somethin', go get it. Period." -The Pursuit of Happyness (2006)As a 140+ time author, hip-hop artist, poet, spoken word performer and content creator - if there is anything that I know about dreams, I would like to tell you that taking your own path isn't the easiest feat in the world.Society teaches us that we should have the picketed fence, the perfect family and the college degree for the spacious cubicle twenty-five miles away from where you live. Honestly, that is not everyone's vision. Some of us do not desire to be average. Some of us do not desire to settle for a life of mediocrity.Some of us do not desire to let the talents and ideas given to us from higher powers go to waste all because we wanted to please someone else by fitting ourselves into their boxes. The world is constantly evolving and us as a species, we must evolve with it.I believe that the freedom of expression, whether it be in the humanities, performing arts, activism or essential services will help us to evolve and become more accepting of our differences. I've had the pleasure to use my aptitude for writing and performing to touch souls and hearts from all walks of life.My passion to heal the traumas of those that came before me along with my own gives me the fuel that I need to continue being of service to others as a beacon of light to show you no matter what life throws at you, never let that stop you in your tracks!

Christina

Adult Literacy Tutor • +22 Subjects

I first began teaching during graduate school, when I took on a small group of piano students in my parents' living room. Over the course of four-and-and-half years, my voice and piano studio grew from three to forty students as young as five and as old as seventy. I also had the opportunity to teach Literature and Drama at a private elementary/middle school for one year. While worthwhile and fun, my experience in the classroom helped me realize that I prefer working with students in a private lesson setting, as it allows me to understand their personalities and preferred learning methods. One-on-one, I am also able to get to know the students in such a way that they feel comfortable asking questions and being themselves throughout the learning process.My formal education and training are in music, specifically classical singing, and I hold a B.A. in Music from Gettysburg College, and an M.M. in Vocal Performance from University of Wisconsin-Madison. While at Gettysburg College, I acted as a tutor for Music Theory I and II students. I also took a number of literature and creative writing courses, along with seven semesters of German and a semester studying Music and German in Vienna, Austria. My love of reading, writing, and languages stays with me, and I still enjoy writing short stories and blogs, reading fictional novels, and brushing up on my German and French skills via Duolingo.While my career is mainly focused in music and private teaching, I have a strong background in administrative and publicity work. As an organization nerd, I revel in arranging paperwork, color-coding calendars, and creating spreadsheets. In my free time, I enjoy cooking healthy meals, baking not so healthy treats, and spending time with friends and family.

Frequently Asked Questions

The New Jersey Bar Exam tests both New Jersey-specific law and general bar exam competencies across MBE (Multistate Bar Examination) subjects and essay questions. Many test-takers struggle most with time management—balancing 200 multiple-choice questions with essay responses in a single day—and mastering the nuanced differences between New Jersey law and model rules, particularly in areas like real property, civil procedure, and professional responsibility. Additionally, the integration of New Jersey-specific statutes and case law requires focused study that goes beyond standard bar prep courses.

Personalized 1-on-1 instruction allows you to focus on your specific weak areas rather than following a one-size-fits-all curriculum. A tutor can identify whether you're struggling with MBE strategy, essay organization, New Jersey-specific legal rules, or test anxiety, then tailor sessions accordingly. This targeted approach means you spend less time on material you've already mastered and more time building competency in challenging areas, resulting in faster progress toward passing score benchmarks.

An excellent New Jersey Bar Exam tutor should have a strong understanding of both multistate bar law and New Jersey-specific substantive law, ideally with bar admission in New Jersey or significant experience preparing candidates for the exam. They should be familiar with the exam format, timing constraints, and essay grading rubrics, and able to teach both content mastery and test-taking strategy. Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who have demonstrated expertise in bar exam preparation and understand the unique challenges New Jersey candidates face.

Most bar exam candidates benefit from 8-12 weeks of focused preparation, though the timeline depends on your baseline knowledge, how much time you can dedicate weekly, and whether you're using tutoring alongside a bar prep course. Those who combine personalized tutoring with structured self-study often see more efficient progress than those relying solely on prep courses, since tutoring can address specific problem areas immediately rather than waiting for group-based instruction to cover those topics. Your tutor can assess your starting point and create a realistic timeline based on your goals.

Yes. Essay writing is a key component of the New Jersey Bar Exam, and many candidates underestimate the importance of structured, organized responses. A tutor can teach you how to spot issues quickly, organize your analysis using proven frameworks (like IRAC), apply New Jersey law accurately, and write concisely under time pressure. Through practice essays with feedback, you'll learn to identify what graders are looking for and refine your approach, which typically leads to measurable score improvements on this portion of the exam.

The MBE (Multistate Bar Examination) tests broad legal principles across six subjects and requires strategy-based multiple-choice skills, while New Jersey essays test deeper knowledge of substantive law, New Jersey-specific rules, and written analysis. MBE prep focuses on pattern recognition and eliminating wrong answers efficiently, whereas essay prep emphasizes issue spotting, legal reasoning, and application of law to facts. Most candidates need different study approaches for each section, and a tutor can help you develop distinct strategies rather than treating them as a single preparation task.

With consistent personalized instruction, you can expect to see measurable improvements in several areas: faster issue spotting on practice problems, more organized essay responses, stronger accuracy on subject matter you initially found confusing, and increased confidence during timed practice exams. Many candidates report that within 4-6 weeks of regular sessions, they've developed stronger test-taking strategies and significantly reduced time spent studying ineffectively. Your tutor will track your progress on practice exams and specific question types to ensure you're on track toward your passing score goal.
