About
My name is Riki Jackson. I have been in education for over 20 years as an administrator, a classroom instructor, a teacher, a professor, a presenter, and a curriculum planner. I have worked in public, private, and charter school settings at the K-12 level and have spent the last 9 years at the collegiate level. I recently ventured back into the K-12 classroom. I love it! I am extremely committed to helping every student reach their highest academic potential. I worked in and out of China for many years researching and observing the most effective methods related to teaching and instruction for academic retention and test-taking skills. My specialty areas include ACT preparation, upper division mathematics, reading, and English. I also speak conversational Chinese and Spanish. My native language is English. My undergraduate degree is from the University of Tennessee in marketing and economics. My graduate degree is in international marketing and economics. I have post-graduate work from Vanderbilt University and will start a post-graduate program at Cornell this fall in the area of comparative education. You can visit me on my Facebook page at Student Scholars or at Riki Hamilton Jackson. Thank you for your commitment to doing your best in and out of the classroom. I look forward to hearing from you! Thank you. Sincerely, Riki I love working with students of all ages. It is my calling. I love helping students reach their full potential. It is exciting and rewarding!

Very pleased with our initial meeting and I look forward to seeing my daughter reach her goals making a score that is satisfactory to her. I appreciate the fact that Riki seems to be very knowledgeable about the ACT and what strategies to use to help you be successful.

Well I'm a 48 year old looking to go back to school and don't have a clue what I'm doing. Talked to Riki over the phone and her enthusiasm was infectious. Very knowledgeable in the process and really eager to start the planning process. Made me feel better and more confident in what lies ahead.

As an elementary teacher myself, I know a nurturing environment with high expectations is essential for the most productive educational environment. That is exactly what Riki provides for my Senior scholar. Although my scholar struggles with Anxiety, she increased her ACT score by 4 points within 6 weeks of tutoring from Riki. And while our ACT challenge is complete (yay!!) for a single mother and teacher, I feel more confident in my Senior's success, because I've continued our partnership with Riki. I wanted to provide my scholar with Riki's expertise in Chemistry & Trig. Riki is one of the finest educators out there and both my daughter and I share that sentiment. We feel extremely blessed she works us into her busy schedule, and it is with pleasure that I highly recommend her!

Thank you Kelly! I am very blessed to work with both of you! Tessa is a joy to work with weekly and your students are so fortunate to have you leading the way! Thank you for your very supportive recommendation but most of all for your friendship, kindness, and support! Love, hugs, and blessings, Riki : )
