    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."

    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.

    Christian
    Tutoring Mathematics, Chemistry, Physics (exact subjects).
    I am Christian, graduated in chemistry at Utrecht University (Biomolecular Sciences) and have a PhD in developmental biology. For several years now I have been tutoring and exam training in mathematics, chemistry and physics to HAVO and VWO students, but also to HBO students and Cambridge International A-levels. Maybe I can help you too! The lessons are given online, but I provide a personal and interactive approach. With a marker and whiteboard I create an atmosphere that is comparable to private lessons at your home. Every student has unique goals and a unique way of learning. That is why I tailor my lessons to your needs. I am always involved in your progress and am optimistic and approachable by nature. During the lessons I often notice that students not only understand the material better, but also their self-confidence grows. Besides being a tutor, I am a part-time artist (painter and musician). My creative background gives me a fresh and enthusiastic perspective on science subjects. If science subjects feel hard, difficult or boring, or if you had a teacher who couldn't make it fun, I can help you change that. The more you understand, the more fun it becomes, and good grades will follow! I'd love to meet you!

    My goal is to help my students progress and succeed in their exams. So that they can overcome their difficulties, I provide them with effective educational support, on an ad hoc basis or throughout the school year. Concretely, I analyze my student's profile then identify their gaps and/or difficulties to finally implement tailor-made methodologies. My teaching is aimed at students from 6th to 12th grade, all sectors combined. I assure you that with weekly monitoring and the right methods you will make progress!
