Logan Wright has been helping students prepare for the SAT since it was revised in March 2005, teaching in such diverse locations as Salt Lake City and Palo Alto before moving to Portland and joining Stumptown Test Prep in February 2008 as one of the company’s first tutors. During his time at Stumptown, Logan has covered the entire testing spectrum: from working with students to dissect the rich literary allusions in Ezra Pound’s poetry on the SAT Literature Test to helping illuminate such byzantine concepts as the magnitude of vectors on the SAT Math II Test.

As Test Preparation is no student’s favorite subject, Logan prides himself on presenting even the driest of material in an entertaining and memorable fashion. He hopes to inspire students to not simply memorize a vocabulary word but also to excavate its rich etymological history. Thus for him, tutoring is not simply about improving test scores but also developing students’ critical reasoning skills and providing them with new learning methods that will assist them in college and beyond.

Logan graduated from Wesleyan University with High Honors in the College of Letters and also has an MA in the MAPSS Program from the University of Chicago. Although he grew up in Salt Lake City, he was born in Corvallis and enjoys being back in his home-state.
