About Jacob
Hello! I’m a PhD-qualified chemist with a specialism in organic and medicinal chemistry, and a graduate of the University of Manchester. I’ve also completed a PhD in chemistry and electrophysiology at the University of Leeds, and I’m delighted to have been offered a place at the University of Cambridge to pursue a PGCE this September (2026). I love teaching because I enjoy helping students realise their true potential. My lessons are student-led, focused on understanding and applying concepts rather than rote memorisation. I use step-by-step explanations, metaphors, and analogies to make complex ideas accessible, and I tailor each session to the student’s pace and style. My goal is to help students think critically, gain confidence, and enjoy learning chemistry — whether they are preparing for GCSEs, A-Levels, or simply want to deepen their understanding. I find it incredibly rewarding to watch students develop not just knowledge, but the skills and curiosity to succeed on their own.

I take a student-led approach to chemistry tuition, where we break problems down step by step, using metaphors and analogies to make complex concepts intuitive and memorable. I focus on understanding and applying ideas, rather than rote memorisation of definitions. My aim is to help students think like chemists, build confidence in problem-solving, and develop skills they can apply across topics — from GCSE to A-Level and beyond. Lessons are tailored to each student’s pace and learning style, ensuring every session is engaging, productive, and focused on real understanding.
