Hello! My name is Jake, and I am a recent graduate from CSUN. While my degree is in TV Production, I spent the last two years gaining teaching experience at my university and am nearing my Teaching English as a Foreign Language certificate. In addition to teaching 18-21 year olds, I spent over a year tutoring 4-8 year olds at Kumon in Tarzana. In all, I have taught young minds how to begin reading all the way up to teaching them how to write a college essay. My top priority as a caretaker would be to keep your children active and engaged. You can think of myself doubling as a babysitter and a personal tutor!
