In the first meeting, students begin with a 30-minute Consultation Call ($15) to discuss their history with the LSAT, learning style, strengths and weaknesses, timeline, and goal score. The consultation is also a chance to talk through what the student wants out of tutoring and what has or has not worked for them in the past.

If time permits, Maya will also walk through a sample problem using her approach to the LSAT so students can get a feel for how sessions are taught and whether it feels like a good fit. After the consultation call, the real work begins through weekly study plans, tutoring sessions, and structured practice tailored to the student’s goals.

The single most important part of LSAT prep is having an effective study plan. Whether you have one hour a day or three, Maya works with students to build a weekly plan that fits their schedule, current score, goal score, and test date.

For some students, that means spending the first few weeks doing untimed practice, learning how arguments work, and keeping a detailed wrong answer journal to build foundational skills before worrying about speed. For students closer to test day, preparation may shift toward timed sections, full practice tests, endurance building, and detailed review. Students who struggle with consistency may need shorter daily assignments, while others may benefit from longer practice sessions a few times a week.

The best LSAT study plans are not one-size-fits-all. What works for a student aiming for a 175 in six months may look completely different from what works for a student aiming for a 160 in two months. A large part of tutoring is figuring out what approach actually makes sense for you and adjusting it as you improve.

Hour-long tutoring sessions can be scheduled however often a student wants support. For some students that is once a week, while for others it may only be once or twice a month.

Once students begin following Maya’s weekly study plan, tutoring sessions usually focus on two things: first, reviewing questions the student missed during independent studying and figuring out exactly why they were missed; second, working through new problems together using an “I do, we do, you do” approach. Maya will first demonstrate how to approach a question, then solve one collaboratively with the student, and finally have the student try one independently while applying the same process.

All students receive free access to Maya’s Skool community, which includes hundreds of LSAT resources such as lessons, video explanations, study guides, and wrong answer review tools. Students also have access to study schedule templates and other materials designed to make independent studying more structured and manageable.

The goal is to make sure students still feel supported even when they are not actively in tutoring sessions. Inside the community, students can post difficult questions they encounter while studying and receive fast feedback from Maya, along with guidance on how to approach similar problems in the future.

After the LSAT comes the admissions process. Maya’s admissions package helps students navigate the next step with personalized guidance on school lists, essays, resumes, application strategy, and more.
