Jake

Certified Tutor

I am a St. Louis native and am currently a senior at Southeast Missouri State University majoring in Chemistry and Biochemistry. I have always had a passion for tutoring and helping others. I am definitely a people person! I bring a lot of enthusiasm to everything I do, especially tutoring Chemistry because it is a tough subject for most to be excited about. I have tutored for two years at Southeast as an open lab tutor tutoring a wide range of subjects including College Algebra, Calculus, lower level Biology, Organic Chemistry, Inorganic Chemistry, General Chemistry and Biochemistry. Last summer, I had the opportunity from the National Science Foundation to do undergraduate research at Southern Illinois University Carbondale developing nano-structures to optimize a new type of solar cell. I have a passion for everything Chemistry and Biology related, but those are not my only passions. I am a huge St. Louis sports fan (Go Cards, Blues, and sometimes Rams!). I try and stay active playing intramural softball, soccer and floor hockey in college. I am also somewhat adventurous and love to go hiking and fishing whenever I get the opportunity.
