About Jake

Experience: 6 yrs

Hi there, I'm Jake and I'm a teacher, writer, editor, and translator looking to tutor students in English, literature, creative writing, history, and social sciences. I hold degrees from Stanford University and Louisiana State University, am a Returned Peace Corps Volunteer as well as a Fulbright Research Alumnus. I have published short stories, academic writing, translations, and comics, and have edited one book with University Press of Mississippi (with one more forthcoming), translated Akhmet Baitursynov's Mosquito, and have a scholarly monograph on the comic character Spawn forthcoming from Rutgers University Press. Writing is my passion, obsession, reason for living, and I love nothing more than to help students clarify their thoughts and ideas on paper whether that be in a college composition class, a creative writing workshop, or one on one tutoring. I look forward to working with you!
