    About Me

    I am a private tutor with over 4000 hours of tutoring experience. Before becoming a tutor I studied undergraduate and masters level at The University of Cambridge reading Natural Sciences. I have worked as a research scientist and software developer before becoming a full time tutor.

    I have helped students achieve top grades in exams, gain full scholarships to independent schools and offers to top universities.

    My teaching style is very flexible but usually I share the lesson time between teaching and examples questions. The teaching is very conversational, with the student and tutor exchanging information and asking questions equally. When tackling examples questions, again this is shared between me and the student. The questions are both topic-specific and general exam practice questions.

    Testimonials:

    A-LEVEL MATHS STUDENT, LEEDS (ACHIEVED AN A GRADE)
    "Jake was exactly what I was looking for. Helping me with my AS resit and A2 maths content, I went from a C at AS, to finally achieving an A at A Level (including 98 UMS in M1, a topic which used to reduce me to tears). He gave me much needed confidence in my ability and advice for coping with my exam stress. Jake is extremely amiable and I looked forward to every lesson. I never felt talked down to or made to feel stupid if I made a mistake (something I had experienced with tutors in the past). Hence, I always felt comfortable with him. Jake always had the ability to explain new topics, and ones I was struggling with, in a way I could understand. Some of my teachers’ explanations at school never seemed to quite click with me, but Jake’s explanations always made sense and stuck straight away. I most definitely recommend Jake as a tutor. Jake is a brilliant tutor and also happens to be a lovely person."

    SAM BROCKETT(A-LEVEL MATHS AND PHYSICS - A* ACHIEVED)
    "Thank you so much for all the teaching and support you have given me over the past few months! I feel my understanding of my subjects has massively improved and I'm a lot more confident going into my exams now! I started off in Feb 18 getting D grades and now I am getting A grades. Fantastic tutor "


    GCSE MATHS AND SCIENCE PARENT
    "Jake is an exceptional tutor who I would fully recommend. He has motivated and supported my daughter through the last year of her GCSEs in science and maths and made her a more confident student with a 'can do' attitude. He seemed to understand where Emily had difficulties and focused on areas which he knew would help her. He has a thorough knowledge of the specifications of the exam boards she was taking and so could gear her tuition based on this. She even said the other day that she quite likes maths exams as they are like problem solving and are fun. I never thought I'd hear her say that. Thank you Jake."

    Basic to Advanced -> Mathematics, Physics ,Compuational algorithm, Chemistry, English, Hindi
    I specialize in tutoring Mathematics, Physics ,Compuational algorithm, Chemistry and English from school level to advanced level and the GRE, TOEFL and other national / international level competitive exams. My goal is to keep students challenged, but not overwhelmed. I assign homework after every lesson and provide periodic progress reports. I adapt to any way of working, the goal being to achieve a deep and detailed understanding of the subject. The methodology depends on the preferences of each person to establish a relationship of trust and well-being. Classes are conducted on a follow-up so as not to lose momentum and optimize knowledge. These courses are for those who want to improve their understanding in science subjects and languages. The science course strengthens knowledge in physics, chemistry and experimental science. The math class helps to reinforce knowledge of algebra and geometry., trigoneometry and corrdinate geometry, basic to advanced number system, Differential and Integra; calculus..I can also teach very well any math topic you wish to study.. The language course improves vocabulary and grammar, sentence construction..SPeaking, Listening, Reading and writing enhancement Every student is different and I will take extra care to have tailormade classes for each person.I create presentations,use assignments and prepare before each class.Time is important and I do not want to waste yours. You can message me regarding the classes or your needs.I will make sure to do the best.As an educational coach, I know how to be patient, enthusiastic but above all passionate. do not hesitate to contact me

    Maths and Physics Lessons for any level (college - highschool- middle school - English/Spanish
    Hello everybody! I’m an environmental engineer and actually I’m doing my PhD in Japan. I have 5 years experience teaching Physics in an Argentina College. Those lessons are focused in cinematic, dynamic, Energy conservation, MCU. Additionally I was private tutor for maths and physics for highschool students for 2 years. I can teach you math or physics for any level (highschool to college level). According your plan and goals I would set the lessons the way you can understand everything needed at the time desired. For a more specific plan please contact me. If you live in Tokyo we can arrange classes face to face only in public spaces (additional fee according train fare). Don’t hesitate to ask me and hope we can work together!

    Mathematics physics science pre test tutoring any level
    A preparation for a test can be stressful as well the understanding of so many formulas. I have organized this course to help students to get the necessary tools to overcome a possible science test. We will focus in a method to solve problem in math and physics by understanding the concept of it. Than we will study the meaning of the formulas needed and how to apply them. In this way the student will be able to solve by him/herself a science test.
