About Jake
Hi there, I'm Jake!
I'm a lecturer with a specialty in creative work, but focused also on English, reading comprehension, literature studies, and more.
I've got a lot of passion for what I do, adapting what I've learned from years of experience as a creative mentor, teacher and lecturer, and the training I've received in TEEP, PTLLS, and more. I am currently a lecturer in creative media (with a focus on creative writing), teaching sixteen-plus, but always adjustable and happy to work with whomever needs support.
I adapt my approach based upon my student, so I'm always tailoring, adjusting and making sure every bit of information makes sense. I use a test, then teach approach, basing my approach based upon existing knowledge.
I never drag my students down for not knowing the answer, it's a process, and it's what I'm here to help with. If they have questions, if they're unsure about something, that's what I'm here for.
I'm comfortable teaching anywhere from primary to uni-level. One of the biggest joys I have is getting a question I haven't heard before, as it gives me more opportunities to develop my method.
As for qualifications, I have a master's degree in creative writing, and a bachelor's in English literature and creative writing. I also have a foundation degree in professional writing, a PTLLS, a BTEC Extended Diploma in Media, and a TEEP certification.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

I've worked closely with Jake for some time, focusing on understanding the craft of writing and how to best apply this to my creative writing, and my vision as a writer moving forwards. As someone who really struggles with anxiety, I was worried that I would get overwhelmed easily and it would be too stressful, but Jake's calm demeanour and mindful approach helped a great deal.
I would highly recommend working with Jake, and hope to continue working with him in the future!Jake and I read literature together at university and have remained colleagues and friends ever since. Jake's approach to his studies was one of pensive curiosity. I was always impressed by the breadth of his knowledge which surpassed academia, applying discourse to his wide reading which spans across journalism and philosophy. He possesses the unique ability to adapt to challenges and criticism, consistently ready to hear views contrary to his own; he is a team player and a keen problem solver.
