About Jacob
Cambridge Msci graduate with over a year of tutoring experience, I am interested deeply in the science of learning and from its application I help students cram early, making them capable of the highest grades well in advance of exams.

My sessions vary depending on the specific students needs at the time. This can mean that some sessions are simply spent completing questions to identify gaps in knowledge, whilst other questions are entirely taught material.
The traditional lesson plan that I follow however, relies transparently upon metacognitive theory. I begin the session by working collaboratively with my students to "blurt" the information they know from a topic within a mind-map setting, maximising the connections they have between ideas and simultaneously practicing their active recall.
I will then teach any missed information to remove gaps in knowledge, before moving on to questions to ensure the student is capable of recalling the information within an exam setting.
My in depth knowledge of effective study habits and techniques allows me to equip students with the knowledge and fundamentals they will need in order to learn anything they choose to in future, and to perform exceedingly well in their exams.
Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
I reached out to Jacob to help support my son with his GCSE preparation, and it’s been a fantastic experience. From the outset, Jacob was professional, approachable, and really took the time to understand where my son needed the most support.
He has a great way of explaining things clearly and building confidence, and my son has become much more comfortable with the subjects they’ve covered together. Jacob is patient, organised, and adapts his teaching style to suit the student, which made a noticeable difference.
Overall, I would highly recommend Jacob to anyone looking for a reliable and effective tutor.
He’s been a huge help, and I wouldn’t hesitate to use him again.View more recommendations
