About Jacob
Throughout my studies I have achieved research positions in many world-leading laboratories, and I have learned directly from world leaders in biology and chemistry at the University of Cambridge. I currently work at Cancer Research UK as a research scientist, and will shortly begin a PhD investigating how to improve cancer treatment. I aim to pass on the knowledge and skills I have accumulated from these experiences onto my students. My objective is to make Russell group universities and Oxbridge more accessible to bright students who have not recieved the right opportunities to excel. I have an interest and enthusiasm for science, particularly cell biology, and I hope I can help my students find an excitement for learning and the fascinating chemistry of life.

For students searching for success in exams I believe a trial-and-error approach is optimal. A-level and GCSE exams are typically very rigid in their marking format. This enables a student to memorise areas where they missed out on marks and gain a knowledge of the marking scheme until these exams essentially become multiple choice. For university exams outside reading and practicing scientific writing technique is absolutely essential.
For students applying to university or internship positions, I believe frequent interview practice is essential. A majority of interview committees search for individuals capable of understanding and adapting to topics they have not encountered before. For this reason I encourage my students to expand their knowledge by recommending scientific research papers and setting essays.
I have experience tutoring a number students privately to help their applications to Oxbridge and improve their grades in the sciences. I also have experience supervising University of Cambridge students.
Lesson, length is typically 1 hour. I have taught students at university level, A-level, and GCSE stages.
