About

Hey there! I'm a mathematical physics honours graduate from ANU. I hail from Auckland, New Zealand where I graduated Dux of Kristin School in 2018, completing the IB Diploma with a total score of 43 (ATAR 99.70). I am a demonstrator for ANU and with my five years worth of tutoring experience, I understand that each student has a unique set of strengths and learning styles. I can assist with any of the IB subjects mentioned in my achievements, as well as HSC Physics and Mathematics (up to Extension 2), and SAT exams. I have expertise in report writing and essay writing and can assist with general essay writing skills for both the sciences and humanities. I am available most evenings of the week as well as Sundays. I enjoy one-one sessions as well as group sessions for a discounted rate. WWVP Card holder.

Reviews

I did competition maths with Jake for around a year and we covered a lot of higher level content which he explained really well with a lot of depth. He has a great style of teaching and I learnt about so many interesting and different topics of mathematics with him. I did a lot of proof based maths for the first time with Jake and he was really patient and explained each concept clearly. Placing an emphasis on understanding and developing problem solving skills in mathematics. For anyone in highschool who is interested in maths and wants to learn some material extending beyond any highschool maths course, or is doing any maths competitions, Jake's a really great tutor to help you learn some new and interesting bits of maths.
