Hi students! My name is Laura, and I look forward to working with you! I've spent 30 years working on energy and environmental issues as a lawyer and consultant. I also work as a coordinator for one of the largest foreign exchange programs that brings high school students over to the U.S. for a semester or academic year -- I place students in appropriate families, help families prepare for having an exchange student, and supervise and counsel exchange students between the ages of 15-18. ...

QuickBooks
I have used QuickBooks for many years. It was the program my own company used from the early 1990s to 2007, and when our company was acquired we continued to use QB. For many years I was the primary accounting person responsible for entry; even after that, I was the primary supervisor responsible for ensuring accuracy and consistency. I have not used it consistently in about a year, but when I've talked to colleagues and offered informal assistance it does not appear to have changed.

LSAT
ENRICA M. from San Antonio, TX
She was great in consistently trying to find ways to help me improve my score and consistency. After every lesson, she gave me take aways to help me better identity and understand my mistakes and avoid doing them. in the future. She was also easy to communicate with and helps you rethink your answers. She was always working to provide helpful materials for me to review, and she really made an effort to improve not only my score, but my confidence as well. I would recommend her as an LSAT tutor, she is very flexible in working with her students and allows you to gain access to the way a lawyer would analyze LSAT arguments. She also tailors her lessons with your input on mind to go over questions from previous tests. Overall, I think she was very instrumental for my LSAT development!
