McGill Grad for Nighttime Math Tutoring and Emergency Help
Hi, everyone! I'm a graduate of McGill University, Honours B.A. in Economics. While my main focus may be on economics, I chose the discipline because I felt it was a way to put my passion and talent for mathematics to good use. It allowed for intellectual challenge, while also offering opportunity to continue far in mathematics as elective courses. The contexts I was exposed to mathematics in led me to developing a multi-dimensional style of both learning and teaching the discipline, and...

Amazing and patient!
I have a few challenges when it comes to learning and understanding some subjects, when someone works with me they absolutely must have patience and understand the anxiety that any type of math gives me. When I found that I had to take statistics for my degree, I was very scared and didn't know how I would come to understand the concepts, let alone be able to focus. Jacob was able to teach me from the beginning, in a way that I would be able to learn, it's like he tailored our lessons completely based on my needs and not just on the subject. I'm confident enough to do my assignments without always needing help and it means the world to me that I can understand.

BEST Experience with a Tutor I have EVER Had!!!!!
I am taking Intro to Stats this quarter and have been struggling all quarter. I need help on a write up assignment and just general help understanding formulas and terms. So basically in the hour I spent with Jacob I learned more from him then I have all quarter from my Professor. He met me where I was at, used pictures and didn't over complicate things! Most importantly he was kind and patient. I have felt so incompetent and was so nervous that working with a tutor would just make me feel worse, I actually felt more confident after our session! My only negative is I didn't find him sooner! I will use Jacob again and have already referred him to others.

Patient and thorough tutor
I had a bad experience with a prior tutor in which they were extremely impatient, they'd laughed at my questions, and they were completely unprepared and left me guiding the entire session. So, you can imagine my relief when Jacob arrived prepared and demonstrated incredible patience with me. He truly showed compassion and understanding, and a strong desire to help. I never felt patronized or belittled, and I truly appreciated his help. I will definitely use his services again.

Excellent tutor
First lesson with Jacob - he was incredibly organized and thorough. In just one lesson my son came away feeling more confident about stats than he has in months. I’m excited to see how much he’ll learn this semester.

We went over the basics of linear algebra and he helped me throughout all the basics! he provided step-by-step explanations for every question and was very patient. He responds very quickly and helped me even after our tutoring session was over! he was amazing in showing how to go about solving problems and I was very appreciative of the extra time he took to show me step-by-step solutions as well! overall, he is a great tutor and I would recommend him to anyone!
