Narrative:

After a routine practice of maneuvers in the southeast practice area from richard jones airport (rvs), I picked up the current ATIS information and notified tul approach that I was inbound to rvs, 3 mi east of bixby, leveled off at 2500 ft with the current ATIS information. Tul approach replied by directing me to squawk and identify. I was told that I was in radar contact and to proceed east of the power plant to enter a midfield left downwind for runway 19L. As I came closer to the airport (approximately 3 mi east of rvs), I was advised by tulsa approach to contact the tower on 119.2 (frequency commonly used for traffic operating on runway 19L). I checked in with the tower notifying them that I was inbound for a mid-field left downwind for runway 19L full stop. The tower replied and gave me directions to make a right turn direct to the motels and cleared me for landing on runway 19L. I read back clearance. I was verbally attacked by the tower controller saying that I was cleared for runway 19R, not runway 19L. This incident that could have led to an accident was cause by miscoms between the pilot (I) and ATC. I believed that the tower controller thought he had cleared me to land on runway 19R instead of runway 19L. If he indeed cleared me for runway 19R, he failed to verify and correct my readbacks. This incident could have been prevented if the tower controller had cleared me for the runway he wanted me to land on or at least corrected my readbacks.
