Join Ala in this all-levels class to learn how to listen to your client (the passage), and protect it against nonsensical attacks from opposing counsel (wrong answer choices).
Syllabus
Test 29, Passage 2 — Tribal languages
Highlights
Why do we take things a sentence at a time? Because before we can discard something as not important, we have to check if it’s actually not important to the author’s story. Ala and the class had a ball reading this passage and we went through the toughest questions together.

Game changer for RC. Helped me go from 1-2 right to 0-1 wrong. I cannot recommend Ala's classes enough. She makes passages relatable and keeps you engaged. She answers student questions very well and makes sure everyone is understanding those jargon sentences.Daisy H.
RC is one of my tough sections and Ala really breaks down the passage is like making worlds but RC version!!! I love that on the first two paragraphs she has a student put it into their own words to make sure we are seeing what they are saying in a dumb down version which makes it so much easier to retain the information!Kelsee L.
Ala is an amazing teacher. She breaks down the LSAT in ways that are easy to digest. Her biggest strength is her ability to instill confidence in her students.Lexi L.
Ala engages with the class so well. She asks participants to digest the passage while reading together. Her class is welcoming and helpful!Michael T.
Ala is great at explaining why the wrong answers are wrong, and why the right answers are right on LR and RC. She's great at answering questions and gives amazing advice.Patricia L.
I find the structure of Ala's classes very helpful to my understanding and ability to attack RC. I like when Ala reads the passage and allow students to dissect each sentence. This allows me to be more engaged with the class and watch others struggle a bit with the ability to solve the message together.Anonymous
Ala is the perfect LSAT teacher for RC especially. When I first signed up for live classes, one of her classes was the first I attended. Immediately I started seeing improvement in my understanding of the exam. She taught us how to read by slowing down and she emphasized accuracy. This style of reading was one I was totally new to. Once I started trying it in practice however, not only did my understanding increase as mentioned before, but I started seeing and am still seeing an upward trend in my scores. I feel like a better reader in general because of Ala. Beyond class, Ala's soothing ambiance and transparency regarding her own LSAT journey is something I found encouraging. The conversations she allows students to have with her before and after class make it feel like we are not alone on our studying journeys, which is helpful for those who may be struggling with loneliness or feeling isolated. She is a huge mental health advocate and an overall kind soul. Learning from her has been an honor.Nick C.
Ala does a great job of providing focused feedback while also being incredibly supported of students' perspectives.Leiloni H.

Ala is the RC angel! I have struggled with RC for so long and her class gives me so much confidence. I love how we read in class, it's not just her reading and breaking it down, but we break each sentence down with her. I use the same reading method that we practice together in class when I prep by myself and have improved so much.Celina C.

Ala’s approach to RC makes this section seem much easier to overcome. So many say RC is the section you have the least potential to improve upon. But Ala’s optimism about how we students can improve is truly a welcome sentiment. I highly recommend her class to all skill levels!Makayla R.
Ala's teaching drastically helped me improve my reading comp score, by training my brain to make sense of each sentence in the passage. She is great.Joey C.
Ala makes RC so approachable and fun. I struggled with RC for so long until I started studying with Ala--and then things started clicking for me. Breaking down every clause in the passage along with her guidance is so helpful. RC really is not that difficult and Ala's class has given me so many useful insights and tips.Xavier J.
Ala truly embodies being a human first, and her approach to teaching is ever so welcoming and grounding. Her teaching carries with it much impact and stretches far beyond the depths of the LSAT.

I am thoroughly grateful to experience Ala's classes.Anthony S.
