About Jacob
I’m a medical student at the University of Manchester with recent experience of preparing for and sitting the UCAT. Having successfully gone through the medical school application process myself, I understand the challenges students face and the skills needed to perform well in the exam. I’m passionate about helping students succeed and aim to support them in building confidence as they prepare for the UCAT.

I aim to make lessons engaging, supportive, and focused so you can improve your UCAT skills as quickly as possible. We’ll use a range of activities, from clear explanations of key techniques to working through practice questions together, so you can build both understanding and confidence. We will cover all five sections of the UCAT, with particular focus on developing strong timing strategies for sections like Verbal Reasoning and Abstract Reasoning, as well as learning how to break down Decision Making questions effectively under exam pressure.
Lessons are typically one hour, but I’m happy to offer longer sessions, especially closer to the exam when more intensive preparation can be helpful. I have worked with a number of UCAT students who have gone on to achieve scores higher than they expected and submit strong applications to medicine, dentistry, and veterinary medicine. I’m also happy to provide general advice about the wider application process.

Last year I took my A-Level Biology exam and I really couldn't have done it without Jacob. Before I started having tutoring with him I was scraping a B, and I ended up with an A*. He really spends time going through the concepts thoroughly and making sure that every step of the learning is really ingrained. I thought he was approachable and had a great attitude. I couldn't recommend him highly enough and think he will go on to be a great doctor too.
Jacob has been an amazing help with my A-Level Chemistry. He explains tricky concepts in a way that actually makes sense and takes the time to make sure I really understand, not just memorize. He’s patient, approachable, and always happy to go over things as many times as needed.
I’ve also picked up some great tips for tackling exam questions, which has boosted my confidence a lot. Chemistry felt really overwhelming at first, but with Jacob’s guidance, it’s become much more manageable.
I’d definitely recommend him to anyone who wants a tutor who’s knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely cares about helping you succeed.Jacob tutored me in A Level Chemistry and Biology, he helped go from 2 C's to 2 A's, which meant I was able to get into Durham university! He's really clear and made sure that I understood everything before the session was over. Thanks Jacob !!!!!
My UCAT tutor made a huge difference to my preparation. He explained each section in a really clear, practical way and gave me strategies that actually worked under time pressure. I improved a lot, especially in the areas I struggled with most.
He was also patient, encouraging, and always focused on helping me understand my mistakes rather than just rushing through questions. Thanks to him, I felt much more confident going into the exam.
I’d definitely recommend him to anyone preparing for the UCAT.
Jacob has been a fantastic tutor for my son Dillon. After only a few weeks of lessons he has made him feel much more confident in his Sciences. Jacob always tries his hardest to make the lessons easygoing and clear. I really couldn't recommend him more highly.
Jacob is a brilliant tutor. He helped me with my A-Level Maths and has such a talent for explaining difficult concepts in a very understandable and engaging way. He was always fast to respond and very flexible with sessions. I went from predicted B at the start of Year 12 to getting an A* which I couldn't believe and I think Jacob played a big part in that! Would recommend him to anyone. Thanks Jacob!
Jacob is a highly competent and dedicated maths tutor who consistently demonstrates professionalism and expertise in his teaching approach. His punctuality and friendly demeanour create a positive learning environment, fostering a strong rapport with his students. Jacob's ability to tailor his teaching techniques to suit individual learning styles is particularly commendable, as evidenced by his successful work with my son.
One of Jacob's standout qualities is his commitment to providing comprehensive feedback after each session. This detailed communication not only keeps parents informed about their child's progress but also outlines clear objectives for future learning. Such thorough follow-up is invaluable in ensuring continuous improvement and targeted study.
As a medical student, Jacob brings a unique perspective to his tutoring, potentially offering insights into the practical applications of mathematics in scientific fields. This background may serve to inspire and motivate students who are interested in pursuing careers in STEM subjects.
Based on my son's experience over the past year, I can confidently recommend Jacob as a maths tutor. His combination of subject knowledge, teaching skill, and interpersonal abilities make him an excellent choice for students preparing for their GCSE examinations. Parents and students alike would benefit from Jacob's dedicated and effective tutoring services.chemistry used to be my son Timmy’s least favourite subject, and now thanks to Jacob’s ever endeavouring hard work and exquisite enthusiasm Timmy loves the subject. So very grateful to this excellent tutor.
Jacob is a great teacher. He is patient and persistent and approaches each lesson with a smile. We have known him to tutor both piano and maths and no matter the age - 7 or 17 - he always seems to pitch the lesson at just the right level. I would not hesitate to recommend him!
I was really struggling with my maths, predicted a 6 after my summer mocks. Jacob taught me everything throughly and didn’t miss a section, leaving me with a 9 in my results! Brilliant teaching methods and he was so easy to get along with! Thanks again!
Jacob is an accomplished musician and our daughter has really benefitted from piano lessons with Jacob. In fact, we all miss Florence's weekly lesson as we used to love hearing the creative piano playing. Looking forward to Summer and hopefully fitting in some lessons.
He is a jolly and bright young musician with buckets of passion about passing on skills and helping others out in the world of music. As my good friend and band mate of many years I can say without a shadow of a doubt Jacob will give you 5 star piano lessons, from beginner to intermediate and even maybe at an advanced level. He’s a chill guy and will never let you down.
Jacob has been my piano tutor since I was a grade 3 player. I’ve since progressed to grade 6 with his help. He’s a friendly, enthusiastic and interesting teacher who has always made piano fun. Couldn’t recommend him enough.
