Riley Hoffman

While completing her undergraduate studies at Harvard University, Riley conducted research at McLean Hospital and the Massachusetts General Hospital Center for Law, Brain, and Behavior. She later served as the Lab Manager of Yale University’s Emotion, Health, and Psychophysiology Lab, where she helped build the lab from the ground up, managed more than 50 research assistants, and contributed to research on parenting, emotion, and health. As a Trial Advocate at Legal Aid of Wyoming, Riley's experience has strengthened her ability to explain complex ideas clearly, stay composed in high-pressure situations, and help students approach difficult problems with structure and precision.

What sets Riley apart as a tutor is her ability to break down difficult concepts into clear, manageable steps while still challenging students to think deeply. Across her academic and professional roles, she has mentored students, trained teams, and helped others grow into more confident and capable thinkers. Riley’s approach to LSAT tutoring is analytical, supportive, and individualized. She believes that meaningful score gains come from understanding the logic behind the test, developing reliable habits, and learning how to diagnose mistakes honestly and strategically. She works closely with students to identify their strengths and weaknesses, create efficient study plans, and build the confidence they need to perform at their best on test day.

Riley is passionate about coaching because she knows how transformative a strong LSAT score can be. She loves helping students realize that this exam is not about being naturally gifted but about learning a skill set that can be taught, practiced, and mastered.

Outside of work, Riley loves knitting and is always happy to talk about fiber crafts.
