Wright Minded is a private tutoring service specializing in SAT / LSAT preparation, college / law school application counseling, and academic tutoring.The service provides highly personalized one-to-one tutoring sessions for Bay Area students whenever and wherever is most convenient for them (6am-midnight 7 days/wk, from SF/Berkeley to San Jose).The Hour For Hour Promise: each hour of tutoring purchased funds an hour of one-to-one SAT prep and college counseling for a low-income student in the Bay Area.All Bay Area high school students who qualify for federal free or reduced lunch in school are eligible to receive pro bono tutoring. History Established in 2016. Wright Minded was founded by Michael Wright in January 2016, when he adopted The Hour For Hour Promise and expanded his LSAT tutoring and law school application counseling service to the SAT / undergraduate application level.
I graduated from Palo Alto High School in 2007 and spent my first year of college at UC San Diego. I then transferred to Yale College, where I studied philosophy and cognitive science.After college I moved back home to teach a class for Blueprint LSAT Prep in San Francisco, and within a few months I began taking LSAT and law school application counseling clients independently. I continued working one-on-one with clients throughout my time at Yale Law School, and by the time I graduated I felt more drawn to the human impact I could have as a tutor than the work I would be doing as a lawyer.In adopting The Hour For Hour Promise and expanding my services to the SAT / undergraduate admissions level, I aim to address the dramatic inequality of opportunity created by the test prep and college counseling industry, where students who can't afford to spend thousands on SAT prep courses and college essay revision enter this crucial stage of life at a severe disadvantage.
