Professional editor and musician, former teacher

Jacob L.

Hello!

My name is Jacob, I'm a professional editor and musician, and would love to teach your child what I know!

I was a substitute teacher and coach for two years over range of ages and subjects. I love kids, and my tutoring sessions will be productive and enjoyable.

I would love to help your child with their essays for school or applications.
I am currently a Junior Editor at a nonprofit called the Core Knowledge Foundation, where I write and edit social studies textbooks. I have a strong command of writing conventions and style, and have always had great success with editing applications for friends and family, as well as my own applications over the years. I genuinely enjoy the process and satisfaction of helping people tell their stories, make their points, and show their voice and personality in writing.

And... if you are looking for a music teacher, look no further!
I would be a great guitar, voice, songwriting, or music production teacher for your child. I have been playing music professionally for around 8 years and have worked on many sides of the music industry, in record companies, in established venues, and in DIY settings. I play in several bands, compose music for films, and produce and write music for many local artists. I have played guitar for around 12 years, and I have sung for about as long as I can remember. I love inspiring creativity and helping people discover their passions while refining their style and skill.
With music lessons, I like to start with what the student is interested in and build confidence. Eventually, I aim to help them branch out in taste and level up in difficulty.
