  • I used Rylie for help with my college Climate Change class and I can honestly say that she was wonderful! She is an absolute expert on all aspects of this subject. Not only was she able to answer all of my questions regarding the subject matter, but she was extremely helpful explaining charts, graphs, and changes in percentages that affect various aspects of our climate today. Her enthusiastic and energetic attitude made the class actually understandable and relevant. I thought climate change was going to be a subject that would be rather dull and boring but her teaching style really helped me to get a better perspective on the topic. Rylie always made time for me in her teaching schedule and many times went out of her way to fit me in or prep me for a test. She was always available to text me back if I needed a quick answer to a question. I would recommend Rylie to any college student looking for assistance! She is definitely a 5 star tutor!

  • Rylie’s services were key in the graduate school application process. It took away the stress of cleaning up resume and cover letters in addition to every school’s prompt. The feedback was clear and the improvements captured my experience and identity in how I wanted to portray them. I feel so much better with putting out applications now!
