Doug is the best LSAT tutor ever! I highly recommend using Doug as an LSAT tutor. He is fun to work with, intelligent, and knows the test inside and out. He'll teach you everything about the test, leaving no stone unturned! Doug is also super understanding and flexible with hours. I worked with Doug for about two and a half months while working 50 hours/week with a two hour commute - He was extremely understanding and flexible with hours, even on weekends. I was hesitant at first to do Zoom tutoring, and it ended up being way more advantageous than in-person. The first practice test I took with no previous knowledge of the content, I scored a 147. After the two and a half months with Doug, I scored a 169 on the LSAT! He got me to improve over 20 points in such a short amount of time, and with a crazy schedule. Even when I thought my score plateaued, he gave me new study strategies that made my score increase. Doug takes the time to learn your strengths, weaknesses, study habits, and has so many tips and tricks specialized for each person! He is definitely worth the price too. THANK YOU DOUG!

My name is Tessa and I am a 41 year old bachelors student in the law program at the University of Arizona. I attend school part time and work full time. I decided last year that I wanted to give law school a shot. I took a practice LSAT cold and did absolutely terrible. I knew I needed help. I looked into online tutoring programs through kaplan as well as in person at the University of Arizona. The LSAT is complex. There is the aspect of understanding what they are asking, developing a strategy to answer, and then doing in the limited amount of time given. I knew I needed in person instruction. I reached out to Doug after finding him on google. Doug taught me a skillset that I will use in test taking for years to come. Doug was able to identify my weaknesses and strengths. Rather than focus on improving my weaknesses, he focused on building my strengths and a realistic strategy to make the weaknesses work. Doug has methods that are not taught in mainstream prep courses. He will tailor them to your individual needs and continuously builds on them. Each session I had was built on the one before. He is amenable to schedule changes and will accommodate you however he can. Doug endured my family life continuing on around us without sacrificing the quality of instruction I received. I was able to improve my score by 10 points in 4 mos. of instruction with Doug. If you have individual needs and direction then Doug is the right choice. He bring a wealth of knowledge and experience in his expertise of LSAT prep. Thank you Doug for being part of this journey!!

I have to admit that I was a little intimidated by the LSAT when I first started, I think all of us are at first. For me, the decision to go into law came after I had already graduated college with a hard-sciences degree. First, I studied on my own, trying to familiarize myself with the LSAT, but I knew that I wanted a tutor, and I am glad that I found Doug Couchman. After we worked together over Zoom for a few weeks, I was beginning to understand the hidden complexities of the exam that, without the right guidance, may have taken years to see. Doug has the answers to finding the correct answers on the LSAT, and the strategies for you to understand how to find them, and to apply them under the challeging time constraint effectively. The combination of having this knowledge-set and providing this as a service to future test-takers is extremely rare. I think the greatest takeaway that I got from Doug is that he completely revolutionized the way that I constructed and thought about logic games. Unless you are already scoring 100% on this section, Doug showed me the strategies to score above 95% on every games section. At all levels, if you are brand-new to the LSAT, or have been independently studying for a few weeks, I can guarantee that using Doug as your tutor and mentor for the LSAT is a good decision. Feel free to contact me as a reference.

Recomiendo encarecidamente a Doug Couchman como tutor de LSAT. Trabajé con Doug durante un periodo de dos años para la preparación del LSAT, y no podría estar más feliz con la tutela que recibí. Desde el principio, Doug se tomó el tiempo para conocerme como persona y como quien realiza el examen, y pudo adaptar mi preparación para ayudarme a sobresalir al máximo de mis capacidades. Doug es una persona increíble, y conocerlo y pasar tiempo con él fue un placer. Es increíblemente inteligente, y aprendí una gran cantidad solo a partir de nuestras conversaciones. Doug tiene historias increíbles de sus muchos años enseñando el LSAT, y es una persona realmente inspiradora con la que trabajar. La primera vez que intenté un LSAT de práctica, para prepararme para mi consulta inicial con Doug, obtuve 147. Al final de mi tiempo trabajando con Doug, rara vez fallaba preguntas. Recientemente miré de nuevo mis pruebas de práctica y calculé que había completado cerca de ocho mil preguntas de LSAT para prepararme para el examen. Metafóricamente hablando, se podría soplar una montaña durante diez mil años y no poder moverla ni un centímetro. Sin la increíble ayuda de Doug, probablemente habría tomado examen de práctica tras examen de práctica, leído libros sobre el LSAT, y todavía habría obtenido la misma puntuación no tan estelar que obtuve cuando hice mi primer examen de práctica. Definitivamente no habría mejorado tan drásticamente sin la guía, el apoyo y la amistad de Doug.

Doug fue un increíble tutor de LSAT! Cuando lo conocí por primera vez, fue evidente cuán experimentado es Doug con el LSAT. Ha pasado muchos años entrenando y entendiendo todos los entresijos del examen. Se tomó el tiempo para entender mi estilo de aprendizaje y ajustar sus métodos de enseñanza para satisfacer mis necesidades. Tomando como base mis metas para las escuelas de derecho, establecimos un plan y trabajamos para lograr ese plan durante varios meses. Con la LSAT real por delante, estaba confiado y ejecuté exactamente como Doug y yo nos preparamos. Recomendaría a Doug sin dudarlo. Es brillante. Es divertido. Si te dedicas al trabajo de la preparación del LSAT, Doug sin duda te ayudará a conseguir una puntuación más alta. (Espero que cumpla con las expectativas de Doug).
