About Jacob
Hi, I’m a fully qualified Primary School teacher with several years of classroom and tutoring experience. I’ve taught across all primary age groups and worked with children from a wide range of backgrounds and learning needs. I’m passionate about helping every child reach their potential—and I know from experience that the right support and encouragement can make all the difference. I became a teacher because I love seeing children grow as people, as well as students. Tutoring gives me the chance to focus on each child as an individual, building strong foundations and helping them feel proud of their progress. Whether your child needs help catching up, stretching further, or simply a boost of motivation, I’d love to support them on their journey.

My tutoring sessions are tailored to each individual child, building confidence as well as academic skills. I focus on creating a calm, encouraging environment where children feel safe to make mistakes and enjoy their learning. I use a range of practical strategies to break down tricky concepts—especially in English and Maths—using games, visuals, and structured practice to keep lessons engaging and effective. A typical lesson lasts around 60 minutes, though this can be adjusted to suit the child’s needs and attention span. I’m a fully qualified Primary School teacher with four years’ experience across Early Years, Key Stage 1, and Key Stage 2, including subject leadership and SEN support. My lessons are ideal for primary-aged children (ages 5–11) looking to boost confidence, fill gaps, or prepare for transitions and assessments. I also have experience tutoring secondary students in a range of subjects.

Jacob tutored both my nieces in the run up to their SATs last year and was absolutely brilliant. He made learning engaging for them and I watched their confidence grow. They both achieved fantastic results and were so grateful. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a supportive and effective tutor. Thanks Jacob!
Jacob tutored my son online throughout the summer helping prepare him for maths and English in year 6. He worked really hard and my son loved his lessons!
