Test Prep in Anchorage, AK

I understand the intricacies of crafting a well-rounded and effective college application, helping students see the full potential of their passions and build out the story their application will ultimately tell. As a Harvard graduate, non-profit founder, and dedicated mentor with 9 years of teaching experience, I offer comprehensive guidance throughout the application, from academic/EC consulting to SAT/ACT test prep to crafting a college list and writing the essays. At the core of my process, I help students explore three fundamental parts of themselves and their high school experience: the story that makes them who they are, the curious fire inside that influences the way they think, and how they ultimately plan to impact the world. From there, we strategize around how their activities, passion projects, academics, and college essays are proof of an underlying purpose and drive to succeed. Over the years, I’ve helped countless students get into top 4-year universities and Ivy Leagues such as Stanford, Harvard, Yale, Columbia, Wharton, USC, Tufts, Georgetown, NYU, and more. I have experience helping students build out passion projects, apply to internships, and submit for essay competitions such as Scholastic and NCTE. I also teach many of my students SAT/ACT and have been in test prep for 6+ years now. I’m happy to just do test prep, subject tutoring, or essay editing for clients who are looking for services other than college counseling. I’m experienced, ambitious, and work hard for my students! I have the resources and the drive to help them succeed, and nothing brings me more fulfillment than watching my students get into their dream schools :)

My name's Andrew, and I've earned a bachelor's degree from the University of Michigan and a master's degree from USC. I've been an instructor for a major test prep company for 10 years. Between classes and individual tutoring, I've taught over 1,000 LSAT, GMAT, and GRE students. I've earned national recognition for excellence in the classroom and consistently outstanding reviews from students across all skill levels. My company frequently asks me to train other instructors. I’ve also worked on the content creation team for textbook publications, writing some of the math problems and reading passages in the textbooks you’ll find in bookstores or online. The best part of my job is getting thank you emails and updates from students who've been accepted to law schools, business schools, and graduate programs at some of the top universities in the country. If you have general questions about exams or how I approach tutoring, please feel free to reach out!

The LSAT is hard, but your studying doesn't have to be. With Gameplan Tutoring, your plan is custom-built for you with considerations for your timeline, budget, study schedule, and accommodations. Many people studying for the LSAT don't know where to start. I'm here to give you a personalized plan of action with detailed homework and drills. I understand how people learn from my experiences as a classically trained musician and teacher. My years of being a VA licensed educator taught me that everyone can learn with enough patience and the right curriculum. You can learn the LSAT and I would love to help you. I want you to spend less time studying and learn more efficiently. I scored a 176 in a single take in October 2020 and I've been teaching the LSAT ever since. I specialize in helping those who have a full-time job and don't have 5 hours to study every day as well as students with high anxiety. I teach online 1-1 and group rates are available. In-person classes are available in Rossyln, VA. Contact me to set up a free consultation so we can get your Gameplan started. -Alissa Forbes
