"Hello! My name is Jacob, and I’m a current medical student at the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB). I graduated summa cum laude from Houston Christian University with a B.S. in Biochemistry/Molecular Biology. During my time there, I tutored in the university’s Academic Success Center for over three years, helping students excel in General Biology, General and Organic Chemistry, Biochemistry, and Anatomy/Physiology. I also served as a Teaching Assistant for General Biology labs, where I guided students through experiments and helped them master foundational lab skills.

Beyond the college classroom, I’ve volunteered as a tutor for K-12 students in afterschool programs, focusing on math, science, literature, and social studies. I love seeing students of all ages grow in confidence and curiosity as they connect the material to real-world examples. Whether it’s a high school junior tackling AP Chemistry or an undergraduate wrestling with advanced biochemistry, I tailor my lessons to match each student’s learning style and academic goals.

My tutoring philosophy is built on patience, clarity, and empowerment. I believe in breaking down complex concepts into manageable steps, ensuring each student builds a solid foundation before advancing. As a current medical student, I bring firsthand knowledge of how these subjects tie into practical, real-life scenarios, particularly in the health and life sciences.

I am passionate about helping students overcome academic challenges and develop strong problem-solving skills that will serve them far beyond the classroom. If you’re looking for someone who combines in-depth subject expertise with a commitment to personalized learning, I would be honored to work with you. I look forward to helping you or your student reach new heights in science, math, and beyond!" less...
