I'm an experienced educator excited to help you reach those "light bulb" moments.
As a grad student I taught math, physics, astronomy for 5 years as a tutor, TA, and lecturer. More recently I've been tutoring and mentoring programming bootcamp students. I've taught students of all ages and backgrounds, attending college, bootcamps, college prep, etc
I always focus on developing an understanding of material, rather than just memorization of key words and topics.

Such an awesome Tutor!
I went through other tutors before Jacob and he is by far the best! He's super kind, patient and explains everything really well. I wouldn't go to anyone else, he's helped me out on two big projects already and if I need future help I know I'm good in hands coming back to him.

Knowledgable and dedicated
Jacob is very knowledgable and a good teacher. He worked hard to help me with my Python program assignment and did an excellent job of explaining the concepts to me. Not only did I successfully complete my program assignment, but now I have a much better understanding of Python.

Helpful and knowledgeable!
I had two lessons with Jacob. He helped me work on a project in Python 3 for my college class. I was really stumped on it before he helped me, but he was quick to identify problems and solutions and careful in explaining them. Not only do I feel a lot better about my ability to get a good grade on this project- I also have a much better understanding of the material.

He was knowledgeable and patient
Jacob helped me with a Python assignment. The Covid environment is a challenging one to learn in and a I need the extra time to master the material. Jacob provided me with it.

Jacob was awesome! Very good at explaining things!
Jacob was very down to earth and I am definitely coming back to him for more lessons. He helped me get past some back-end hurtles that I was having some real problems with and he explained it to me every step of the way.

Excellent problem solving
Jacob was very patient with me and he explained difficult concepts very easy for me to understand. Whenever we found an issue he helped me debug it and also explained why it happened as well. Overall the experience has been very positive. Thank you very much.
