Hi, I’m Carrie, and I provide customized, high-quality prep for the LSAT and the SAT/ACT, along with confidence-building math tutoring from Algebra through Calculus.
Why Resolution Test Prep
Online Advantage
Online tutoring is convenient and effective. It also provides invaluable practice in working on a screen – perfect for digital tests like the LSAT and the SAT. ACT and math students also find online tutoring convenient, engaging, and effective. And best of all, working online allows you to find the true best-fit tutor; you don’t have to settle for whoever is local.
Tutoring Philosophy
Unlike tutors who mindlessly drill questions with students, I make sure my work is grounded in solid educational principles. I’ve organized these principles into a Tutoring Philosophy statement so that you can make sure I’m a good fit for you. (Or see my more detailed Teaching Philosophy for LSAT)
Expertise
I’ve been tutoring professionally since 2003 and have worked with thousands of students. I draw on that experience to provide you with a learning experience tailored exactly to you, whether you are just getting started or are already well on your way to a top score. And I promise to be patient and empathetic – even while holding you to a high standard of understanding.
Online LSAT Tutoring
The LSAT is mentally grueling and students sometimes feel beat up psychologically during the process. We’ll make sure you know exactly how to handle each section and question type. As your online LSAT tutor, I’ll push your thinking but will also make sure you’re encouraged and supported.
SAT Prep
I help students raise their SAT scores to become competitive at their dream college. With customized lessons, we'll work together to target exactly the areas that will have the most impact. And online tutoring is perfect for the new Digital SAT!
ACT Prep
My ACT students typically raise their scores significantly. We work on content, test strategy, and time management in customized online tutoring sessions to prepare for this fast-paced test.
Math Tutoring
I also work with students on math from Pre-Algebra to AP Calculus. We work on filling in gaps from previous years, homework support, preparing for tests, or preparing for next year's content.

“Before working with Carrie I took an LSAT practice test and scored a 120. I was down in the dumps and knew I needed to increase my score dramatically to be accepted into law school. Even though my initial score was low I still had set high expectations for myself. I set a goal to improve my score to high 160’s range. Carrie has helped me tremendously. During our first meeting she assured me that with her extensive experience tutoring students on the LSAT that if I put in the work I would be able to improve my score dramatically. I have been working with Carrie for about two months now. I scored a 158 on my last practice test and feel confident with more practice and tutoring I will be able to achieve my goal. I cannot recommend Carrie enough if you are looking for a skilled, patient, and knowledgeable tutor.”
“Carrie is an amazing tutor. I chose her out of many because she understood exactly what the goal was…to improve my son’s PSAT scores. Even though we were in different states, my son and Carrie were able to meet every week. After every session, she touched bases with me, letting me know what they worked on and what he needed to work on independently. My son is a good test taker and I had some doubts that he could improve much more but he did with the help of Carrie. My son improved so much on the PSAT, that he is now NMSC eligible, scoring in the 99th percentile with a PERFECT math score. He felt confident after the PSAT and scheduled the SAT, while still meeting with Carrie on a weekly basis. SAT scores just came in and he is again in the 99th percentile with a PERFECT math score again. I highly recommend Carrie. She is super professional, knowledgeable, and always responds to my questions and requests. THANKS, CARRIE!!!”
“Carrie is amazing! I had three weeks to prep for the GRE and she was phenomenal at teaching me how to approach the entire exam. I especially needed help with the quantitative portion. She was able to break it down into ways I could understand where the books I had were lacking. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of GRE prep. Thanks Carrie!”
How to tackle the new LSAT Writing Sample

How many LSAT study hours should you do?
How many LSAT study hours should you be doing each day? 10 hours a day? 5-6 hours, 7 days a week? Or maybe you know that's not sustainable, so.... 1 hour a few times a week? 20 minutes a day? None of these are ideal. Too much, and you'll easily face LSAT burnout. Too...
