Jacob is very good at explaining complex concepts in an easy to understand and digest manner. He uses problems to help you lean on your own. I have improved since being tutored by Jacob.
Thank you for your kind feedback.

Jacob is an absolutely fantastic tutor. He has helped my daughter with her A level physics enormously. He is extremely patient, kind and has been able to explain things to her that she never really understood before. Jacob takes a real interest in his students’ goals and I highly recommend him. He goes above and beyond! 5 stars and forever grateful.
Thank you so much, Sarah!
From David
In the few months that I have worked with Jacob, I have learnt more maths than throughout all of high school. Jacob is an excellent tutor, focusing on clear and intuitive explanations, leading to a sense of deep understanding with mathematical ideas. With an excellent knowledge of material and a great sense of humor, I cannot recommend Jacob enough to anyone willing to improve their maths! He is a tremendous teacher, taking care to explain concepts carefully, making an emphasis on understanding rather than memorization. Thank you, Jacob! :)
Thank you so much David!
From Sarah
Jacob is an excellent tutor. I cannot recommend him highly enough. He is patient, super bright with an amazing, natural ability to teach children. He has taught both my daughters (Year 11 and and Year 9) and they have enjoyed his lessons very much and flourished.
My year 11 daughter was struggling with Maths (at a gcse level 4) and she gained a level 7 in her gcse exam thanks to Jacob and now loves the subject.
My year 9 daughter had no confidence in her maths ability and was very weak and now she is doing so well and has moved to a top set and feels confident and happy. Her teacher at school now predicts she is capable of reaching a top grade in her gcse exam in 2 years time.
My eldest daughter was also struggling with her Science gcses and Jacob also tutored her for Chemistry and Physics. She gained a Level 7 in both thanks to his superb tuition.
Thank you Sarah!
From Sandra
We have known Jacob for over 6 months (tutoring physics A level). He is extremely clear and precise in his explanations. He will adjust his teaching as needed and cover many different topics. He is always reliable.
Thank you Sandra!
From Vania
We were very pleased with our son’ s progress due to Jacob’ support and clear instructions. Alex has consistently been improving his understanding and concentration in Physics and, as a result, his grade has considerably improved. Jacob has been updating us regularly and has given very valuable feedback on Alex’ progress. We are very pleased to have had Jacob as a tutor
Thank you Vania!

A first-rate tutor! Jacob is very knowledgable in Maths and the sciences, patient, and explains the concepts well. He is punctual, and delivers upon his word. We were also impressed by his friendly and approachable manner.
My daughter is very pleased with her results and is most appreciative of Jacob’s efforts to up her GCSE grades. Thank you, Jacob!
I would have no hesitation in seeking Jacob’s tutoring services again.
Thank you Louise!
From Marta
Amazing tutor for both maths and physics! Always extremely prepared and on time to lessons. He was super informed on the syllabus and had his own exam style questions as well as the past papers. Thank you for your help Jacob!!!
Thanks Marta!
From Ines
Jacob is an excellent A-Level Maths tutor who always came prepared and on time to lessons. He is very reliable and explained difficult concepts in a simple way. He helped me push my Maths grade up significantly from my mocks to my summer exams. Would highly recommend!
Thanks Ines!
From Susan
Jacob is an excellent physics tutor for my son. He is patient, methodical and aims for the highest results. I like the fact that he goes beyond reliance on past exam papers and uses his own expert knowledge of the subject to devise his own papers, a big plus in this era of more demanding A level papers.
Thanks Susan.!
From Richard
Jacob gave our 14 year old daughter a short course of refresher Physics tutorials to consolidate her learning and help her prepare for her year end exam. Her experience was very positive - Jacob was clear, patient, organized - and her exam mark was much better than what she had been achieved in her midyear tests. An excellent initial experience.
Thank you Richard!
From Sara
Jacob stepped in at close to the last minute to solve an A Level confidence crisis. He was calm, reliable and diligent, inspiring trust in a stressed out sixth former. He also gave strategies to cope which came at things in a different way from school. Results are a while off so all we can comment on was the lack of stresss and sense of achievement which was the A level exam experience thanks to Jacob. From my perspective he was also easy to communicate with and utterly reliable. Very happy to recommend
Thanks Sara!
From Yvonne
Jacob were able to help my son with 3 double sessions 2 weeks before his A level math exam. My soon needed support in statistic and mechanics which Jacob had deep knowledge of. He arrived well prepared. He was very good at teaching and able to make it very clear and easy for my son to understand. He is very professional and has a real passion for his pupils to do well. I can highly recommend him. Thanks you Jacob for your kind help and support. Yvonne
Thanks Yvonne!

In regards to his attitude, Jacob always offers a very flexible schedule in which he is always punctual. During his sessions, he is clear, patient and most importantly is able to explain concepts in more than just one way. He is always able to adapt to his student´s preferences; is not affraid of taking a new approach in the way he teaches, thus making him an ideal tutor.
Thank you!
From Nandita
We had the pleasure of Jacob tutoring our son during his A level and AS level period for Maths and Physics.
Jacob knows his subjects well and had done all necessary background research into the Examination Board modules that he was taking and their requirements, prior to teaching our son, so that he knew exactly what needed to be taught and what the Board were looking for.
Jacob is an excellent teacher. He creates a wonderful rapport with his pupil and sustains a kind, gentle and generous attitude during the lessons. He was encouraging and yet firm enough to retain discipline and order. Lessons were structured properly and there was a plan and outcome to each session. Jacob was also extremely courteous and helpful when explaining to us, his parents, what he had taught that session and what additional work would be necessary as practice.
During the school holidays we asked Jacob for an intensive programme to essentially go through the entire syllabus for Maths and Physics. Jacob prepared a full set of guidance notes which our son found most helpful, and he arranged the learning days in such a way as to maximise time and effectiveness and we were all very grateful. They were long days and yet much was learned.
We would thoroughly recommend Jacob as a Maths and Physics tutor.
Thanks!
From Ben
Excellent Tutor who knew exactly how to explain any subject I had trouble with, certainly couldn’t have gone from a C to an A in physics without him!
Thanks Ben!
From Jane
Jacob has proven to be reliable and extremely well organised. He is polite and courteous and my son genuinely enjoys his company. This has helped with my son's attitude to learning as Jacob makes the sessions positive. Jacob prepares for each session and responds to questions in such a way that is supportive and encouraging. My son has improved his GCSE performance from a C to an A. Jacob is always calm and very reassuring when working with my son. I couldn't have hoped for a better tutor.
My son says 'Jacob gave me the confidence to progress further with maths even when I thought I couldn't'.
Thank you very much.
