About Riley

an experienced tutor with a background in public administration and social work. I've spent over a decade working with youth, including those navigating learning differences, anxiety, and non-traditional school settings. I believe learning should feel empowering, not overwhelming. My approach is kind, patient, and strengths-based. I specialize in English Language Arts, writing, reading comprehension, social studies, and executive functioning skills. Whether we're editing an essay, unpacking a dense reading, or organizing a big project, I help students build confidence and strategies they can use far beyond tutoring. I'm trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming, and deeply committed to equity. I've supported learners from middle school through college, and I always create a safe space for questions, curiosity, and growth. If you're looking for a tutor who shows up with compassion and a clear plan, I'd love to work together.
