I am very happy with our experience so far with Varsity Tutors. They matched my daughter with reading specialist Mary and she is wonderful! My 10 year old daughter feels happy after her sessions and believes her tutor has already helped her.

Certified Tutor

Hi, I'm Jake, a passionate, patient, and results-driven tutor dedicated to helping students unlock their full potential. Whether it's mastering challenging math concepts, refining writing skills, or preparing for important exams, I tailor each session to meet my students where they are and guide them to where they want to be.

With a background in finance and real-world experience in business, I bring both academic understanding and practical insight to every lesson. I believe in building confidence alongside competence, because when students believe in themselves, there's no limit to what they can achieve.

My approach is collaborative, goal-oriented, and focused on long-term growth. I take pride in making complex ideas clear and engaging, while creating a supportive environment that encourages questions, exploration, and progress.

I'm passionate about personal development, entrepreneurship, and staying active. I love exploring new business ideas, and taking part in clubs and networking events.
