About Riya
Hi, I’m Riya.
I studied advertising at UT Austin, where I focused heavily on writing and storytelling, and I scored a 5 on both AP Lang and AP Lit.
In my professional work, writing is a core part of what I do—I regularly take complex ideas and turn them into clear, structured, and engaging communication.
I bring both strong academic foundations and real-world experience into my tutoring, and I care deeply about helping students and adults feel more confident in how they express themselves.

What I Offer
I offer personalized English tutoring for both students (middle school through college) and adults looking to improve their writing, reading, or overall communication skills.
Lessons are tailored to your goals and focus on:
Essay writing and school assignments
Reading comprehension and critical analysis
AP Lang and AP Lit preparation
Professional writing (emails, resumes, personal statements)
Conversational English and confidence-building
My approach goes beyond grammar. I focus on helping you:
Organize your thoughts clearly
Structure ideas in a way that makes sense
Express yourself with confidence and intention
Whether you’re working on a specific assignment or trying to improve your overall communication, the goal is to build skills that last—not just fix one piece of writing.
Recommendations
Recommendations are written by the tutor's friends, family, and acquaintances.
Riya helped me with my college essays, and she made the whole process feel a lot less overwhelming. I had ideas but didn’t really know how to turn them into a strong essay, and she helped me figure out how to structure my story and actually say what I wanted to say.
What I appreciated most is that she didn’t try to rewrite my essay or push me to make my story more dramatic than it was. She really respected my voice and helped me write something that felt honest and true to me. By the end, I felt a lot more confident not just in my essay, but in how I was presenting myself overallSee more recommendations
