I am a 7th grade certified Math Teacher at John Adams Middle School with room for 4 new students. I have about 5 years teaching/tutoring professionally and somehow I still love math! I believe it's important to get a good grasp on math as soon as possible or else it can sneak up on you and affect college or career choices down the line. One of my values is forming positive relationships and doing my best to make math easy and fun. The goal is to have a tutor temporarily; I'll help students unfold their wings so they can fly on their own. And my tutoring is based on scientifically proven teaching methodology, tried and true. I offer the first lesson free of charge to get you started, so please email me quick before my schedule gets filled!

    Great teacher. Patient with questions and puts time in after the lesson to make sure concepts were explained clearly. Highly recommend.

    Jacob was amazing! My son is very apprehensive about people and most of the time refuses to go back after meeting them. He absolutely adored Jacob!! He said he never wants to have a different guitar teacher. Jacob was very patient, explained things in different ways, and kept it simple as my son is only 7 years old. I was impressed and so relieved to have found Jacob.

    My lessons are going great. I have learned a lot already in the last 5 lessons I have had. My teacher is very positive and works with my own style of playing and learning. I like the location for my classes too. I am very thankful for my teacher.
