"Hello! My name is Riley, and I am a rising junior at Princeton University. I have completed 6 Advanced Placement Courses (US History, Language, Psychology, Statistics, US Government, Biology). Princeton was the only Ivy League I applied for, and I was also accepted into the University of Virginia and the College of William & Mary.
I have been tutoring since high school in various subjects, but my primary focus is in English and Math. I work with middle school to high school students in developing stronger writing skills, and in growing reading comprehension. I also assist in editing and proofreading essays. For math, I primarily work with middle school students on developing pre-algebra and algebra skills.
Throughout my time as a captain for my high school speech and debate teams, I also worked with training new members on research, public speaking, and competitive argumentation. I lead both the speech and debate teams to State Championships, and achieved my own individual State Championship in Extemporaneous Speaking, and State Runner-Up in Public Forum Debate. I currently am a captain for Princeton's nationally ranked Mock Trial team, where I also train new members on legal analysis and courtroom demeanor. I have received several individual awards in this role.
My mindset when approaching tutoring is that there is never a set procedure that can be applied for every student. I strive to meet each student where they are at, no matter their previous experiences in the subject, or their skill level. Together, we can figure out how to best learn, and discover new solutions to any persisting problems. If you have any questions, or would like to schedule a session, please do reach out! I look forward to hearing from you." less...
