Amazing and patient!
Julia, 17 lessons with JacobI 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.

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...

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.

Above and beyond tutor
Jacob is helping my student with AP Macroeconomics. He is patient, understanding and flexible , going beyond the textbook material to use real world examples which make the material more relevant and understandable to my student. He works to her pace and has really made the effort to connect with her so she enjoys learning! I highly recommend Jacob K!

Saved my grade!
I worked with him for 3 hours over the course of two days (the two days leading up to my final exam), and he absolutely saved my grade! I thought for sure I was going to fail the class but with merely 3 hours of working with him, he helped me genuinely understand each concept and I walked in and out of my final exam feeling confident in my intermediate microeconomic abilities! I will absolutely be using him on a weekly basis for my next micro class. I cannot thank you enough!!! HE IS THE BEST! Everyone use him!

great tutor!
Jacob is very helpful with explaining concepts and going through lessons! He takes the time to explain topics. Jacob has helped me bring my grade up from a C to an A in three lessons.

Jacob is nice and helpful!
As we reached out to Jacob, he responded quickly, and worked with our schedule flexibly. He is knowledgeable and helpful, he explained the concept clearly and patiently, and shared the study material with us generously. Recommend him to anyone who may need help.

Great experience helping my 9th grader through some challenging math concepts. Jacob was super-patient and accommodating about our schedule and connected with my teen who had been very stressed out about math class, but emerged from the session feeling much more confident and positive.

Great tutor
My son has taken several tutoring lessons in geometry with Jacob and he has done a great job tutoring him. Jacob is ver patient, knowledgeable and reliable. I would highly recommend him for your child's tutoring needs.

Very knowledgeable and well spoken tutor! Excellent tutoring all around!
We worked on hypothesis testing, calculation of confidence intervals, and correlation and coefficients of correlation. He did a great job breaking down the topics for my better understanding.

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.
