Barry Jacobs

I bring both academic expertise and practical experience to my tutoring. With a BSc in Psychology (BPS-accredited) and professional counselling diplomas, I understand how people learn best and how to adapt lessons to each student’s needs.

My lessons are highly flexible: they can focus on English (conversation, grammar, writing, presentations), psychology (theory, essays, exam preparation), or essential study skills such as organization, confidence building, and effective learning strategies.

Each lesson is interactive and student-centered. I begin by identifying your goals and current strengths, then design activities and discussions that help you progress step by step. For English learners, this might mean roleplays, guided conversations, or practical writing tasks.

I aim to create a supportive, encouraging atmosphere where mistakes are viewed as part of the learning process. Students consistently say they appreciate my patience, clarity, and ability to make difficult subjects easier to understand.

My approach is results-focused but also mindful of personal growth. I want my students not only to achieve higher grades or better fluency but also to feel more confident in their abilities.

Lessons are online, giving you the flexibility to learn from anywhere in the world and to arrange times that fit your schedule. If you are looking for a tutor who listens, adapts, and helps you succeed, I would be glad to support your learning journey.
