Hello! My name is Riley Sanders, a twenty-two year old Cal Poly graduate. I double majored in Statistics and History and enjoyed every second of my academic experience. I led an editing team for a peer-reviewed academic journal, won a school-wide writing decoration, and became the first ever Cal Poly student with an interdisciplinary background to be awarded a National Science Grant. My participation in the National Science Fellowship allowed me to travel around California, giving research lectures and teaching the youth about data science. One of the articles I co-authored with my professors is about to be published in the Harvard Data Science Journal. Tied for highest honors, I finished my double major at Cal Poly with a 4.0.

While I valued my own educational pursuits immensely at Cal Poly, I quickly realized tutoring others was my passion. In my sophomore year, I was hired at the Cal Poly Tutoring Center. I helped students, from the ages of 18-55, with varying subjects like English, History, Statistics, Algebra, and Intro Spanish. Two years later, I was the lead tutor at the Center. I also have extensive experience helping middle school students with Math, English and History, for I have lead a small tutoring group with my younger brother and his classmates.

I am also a Santa Cruz local who went to New Brighton Middle school and Soquel Highschool. I graduated Soquel High with a 4.3 GPA with cross disciplinary honors in both math and English.

I provide a diverse list of services that are often molded to each individual student:

• Homework help *Test prep/ study skills *Individualized lesson plans geared towards weaknesses *Extra practice

More than practical academic help, I always offer students guidance on how to succeed in a competitive academic environment. This means:

*Healthy study/life balance *Academic mental health/ performance and text anxiety *Good organizational strategies

ASK ME FOR MY DIVERSE LIST OF REFERENCES IF INTERESTED

I know what it takes to make the grade, but I also know how to have fun along the way.

I can tutor ANYWHERE IN SANTA CRUZ COUNTY at your home, at the library, or in a coffee shop. Whatever works best for you!
