Briana: Riverdale tutor

Certified Tutor

Tutoring is not just a job for me; it's a calling that stems from my passion for nurturing confidence and competence in learners of all ages. I have over four years of experience helping students strengthen their reading, language, and organizational skills. My background as a licensed attorney with a Juris Doctor and Certificate in Alternative Dispute Resolution from USC Gould School of Law has made me sharp and committed to excellence in all that I do.

I specialize in early reading and comprehension, conversational English (ESL), and organizational skills, working with everyone from small children taking their first steps in literacy to adults and professionals building conversational fluency.

One of my greatest joys is watching young learners find confidence as reading "clicks," and seeing language learners gain ease in real-life English conversation. My sessions are warm, encouraging, and always tailored because I believe real growth comes when students are met wheretheyare. I'm also passionate about helping students and families get organized, finding routines that make school, work, and daily life more manageable.

Beyond academics, I bring creativity and cultural curiosity from my love of dance, travel, and exploration - keeping every lesson dynamic and engaging. I look forward to supporting you or your child's unique learning journey!
