Testimonials
"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." A-level Maths Student, Leeds (achieved an A grade)
"I honestly couldn't have done as well as I did without your brilliant style of teaching and the great patience that you have. I just want to thank you for all of your immense help and support in preparation for my A-Level maths exams. I ended up getting an A and did better than I expected. I will certainly be recommending you to anyone I come across who is in need of help with their maths!" - Charles, Leeds (Student, A-level Maths - achieved an A grade and exceeded expected marks)
"I couldn't have achieved my GCSE grades without your help - I'd like to start A-level Maths and Physics with you" - Haider, Leeds (Student, GCSE Maths and Physics - achieved A* Physics and 7 Maths)
"Absolutely delighted to have found Jake. He is a reliable, dedicated and fabulous tutor who has put the smile back on my daughter's face when it comes to physics. He is extremely professional and takes time to understand the individual so that he can tailor the tutoring. First class." - Jan, Liverpool (Parent of AS level student - high B achieved)
"Great Tutor. Only a few months in and noticing the impact straight away with grades improving dramatically. Very good tutoring skills, is friendly and knows his stuff. Physics is much more clear and enjoyable now, thanks to the tutoring!" - Pete, Leeds (Student, Physics)
"I cannot recommend Jake highly enough as a tutor. My son asked to have a maths tutor in his final GCSE year as he felt he was going to fail badly as he just couldn't "get it". My son was an average middle of the road student. Within a month his grades improved, his attitude towards the subject became positive, his confidence in his ability was much higher and he was "getting it". Jake is absolutely fantastic at tuning into the problems the kids are having and draws out of them which topics exactly cause problems for them and uses approaches that suit each individual's learning method. He's in short excellent at his job and a nice guy the kids relate to too. Thank you Jake!" - Emma Winter, GCSE Maths Parent
"I cannot rate Jake highly enough. My son asked for help with his maths leading up to GCSE exams this year and with the help of Jake he has gained a lot more confidence in himself and has learnt a great deal. Thank you Jake for being a huge help to Harry." - Catherine Speed, GCSE Maths 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." Elizabeth Hayton, GCSE Maths and Science Parent
"Jake was a huge help for me in the run up to my A level maths exams. He helped me realise that I understood a lot more than I thought and gave me the confidence to believe in myself. He was extremely patient in both his explanations and teaching. If it wasn’t for Jake I definitely wouldn’t have achieved the grade I needed to get into Uni. I have since recommended him to other people" Anna Moore, A-level Maths Student (achieved a B grade in A-level Maths)
“Jake is an excellent tutor, he is both patient and clear with his teaching. Jake is currently helping me as an adult learner revise for a specific exam. Before our first appointment he had thoughtfully reviewed the type of examination I am undertaking and we built lesson plans together.
Jake has also been really accommodating with my work schedule as I have a shift pattern which has been really helpful. He also answer inquiries in a timely and professional manner.
I would highly recommend Jake as a tutor.” Hannah Spooner, Adult Learner, UCAT exam, Aug 2019
