Tutor Bio
I am a native-level German and English speaker with extensive teaching experience, specialising in preparing students for both Junior Cycle and Leaving Certificate exams. I also hold an Honours Master’s degree from a top 100 law school, which has equipped me with strong analytical, organisational and skills that I apply to structuring clear, effective, and goal-oriented lessons.

For students preparing for school exams, I offer tailored, one-to-one tuition focused on the key components of the exam, including oral, written, listening, and comprehension skills. Each lesson is carefully designed around the student’s individual strengths and areas for improvement, ensuring efficient progress and a confident approach to exam performance.

My academic background allows me to break down complex material into manageable steps, develop structured study plans, and teach students how to approach exams strategically and with the skills needed to maximise their results.

My teaching style is supportive, engaging, and results-driven, with an emphasis on building both competence and confidence in the language.

I offer the first session free of charge to assess the student’s level and discuss a personalised learning plan. Subsequent lessons are priced at €45 per hour.

Please feel free to get in touch if you have any questions or would like to arrange a session.

    Patrick McCarthy Jakob is a fantastic tutor and helped my son Sean tremendously over the last 2 years, thank you

    Edel My son was so lucky to work with Jakob in preparation for his Leaving Cert. Jakob understood my son's needs and worked with him to identify the parts of the course that he needed to work on. Jakob took my son's learning style into account and they managed to work through the course content without my son feeling that he was under pressure. Thank you Jakob. We will be recommending you to his friends who are doing their exams this year!

    Janina Petrauskas Our son Matis has been taking German in school. After starting grinds with Jakob, we have noticed a serious improvement in his grades. He did exceptionally in his German exams this year. Not only has Jakob been a great teacher, he has also provided excellent support and material throughout.
