Hi! My name is Riya Agarwal, and I am currently in 10th grade. My preferred type of writing includes essays focused on a thematic idea formulated from books and any project that incorporates major themes; however, I am open to assisting in any way I can! Outside of school, I love playing tennis or just reading a good book, as I enjoy analyzing the different perspectives it can bring. Other than English, I am willing to help with any Spanish assignments as I can write, read, and speak the language.

Hi! My name is Shirley Benedict and I am a senior at Chantilly High School. As a tutor at the Chantilly Writing Center, I help students with their English and science fair papers. I'm also a member of Chantilly's Debate team and have taken Debate as a class, so I can work with students on debate-related assignments as well. In addition, I've tutored my peers for Math Honor Society and Computer Science Honor Society. In my free time, I enjoy dancing, reading, and binge-watching Youtube. I also have a passion for teaching and hope to share my enthusiasm for writing through the Writing Center!

Hi, I’m Nathaniel!  I’m a junior, and this is my second year tutoring at the Chantilly Writing Center.  I’ve also been a tutor in a program known as the Homework Helpers Organization since seventh grade, which meets weekly with different elementary schools and shelters (now through Zoom calls), to provide help to students who are struggling in their classes. I plan on taking the debate elective this year, and in my free time I enjoy reading news articles. This year at the Chantilly Writing Center, I would be best fit to help students with writing pieces in science and english classes, because I have experience with both Science Fair and Exploravision, as well as with the specifics of an analytical essay (assertion, evidence, and commentary). I really enjoy writing persuasive essays, such as the research that I do to make debate cases, because they allow me to offer my viewpoints and opinions on a given topic.

Hi my name is Johanna Luke and I’m currently a junior at Chantilly High School. I’ve always found helping other people as an interest to me so I would say tutoring is a hobby of mine. I started tutoring in middle school and continued in high school by joining both the math and Spanish honor societies. I’ve also been playing basketball since second grade and also played for our school team. I’ve met some of my closest friends through the sport so I really enjoy it. I also enjoy learning Spanish, which is a class I’ve been taking since seventh grade. I think I would help most with essays based on books because I think my strengths are definitely in the analysis and evidence aspects of writing. I enjoyed writing exponentially more after taking journalism my freshman year of high school and then being a part of The Odyssey which is our school’s yearbook. I’m looking forward to continuing my passion of tutoring through the writing center!
