About Jesse
Welcome to Logos Tutoring!
With a Ph.D. degree and 20+ years of teaching experience, I am able to respond to the needs of a wide variety of students. I am currently an Assistant Professor at a liberal arts college on the west coast, having previously taught at major universities in New York City and the Midwest. I have also mentored and tutored both undergraduates and K-12 students in 1-on-1 settings.
I teach across several humanities disciplines, including English, literature (and composition), history, philosophy, and religion. What unites my approach to all of these disciplines is a the focus on texts--either reading and interpreting them, or writing and editing them. I am particularly excited to help students develop their reading comprehension and writing skills. I love helping students craft well-designed essays--including college application essays!
I have a Ph.D. degree in literature and 20+ years of teaching experience. I currently teach literature and writing at a major university and I have previously taught at two other universities in NYC. I have also mentored and tutored both undergraduates and K-12 students in 1-on-1 settings for several years. I have published academic journal articles in the top scholarly journals in my field, so my writing skills have been proven at the highest level in the scholarly world.

First, I'd like to understand the student's goals. I will assign practice problems and assignments that are most directly related to achieving these goals. During our sessions, we will typically work through the student's homework assignment and I'll provide personalized guidance and correction. For those studying for standardized tests, I'll provide plenty of practice exams that are indistinguishable from a real test, so that the student will feel comfortable on the day of the exam!
I've worked with students of all ages! My youngest student so far was just four years old, and my oldest was in his 60's.

I thought it was very nice and I'd recommend it to anyone
Jesse is a really great tutor and teacher. He takes to time so that his students understand fundamentally and conceptually the topics at hand. He grapples with difficult questions by asking his students to think critically, and guides them along when they encounter difficulty. I definitely recommend his service!
It surpassed my expectations - Jesse is an excellent communicator and teacher, a rare combination. He is learned and sharp. He helped me understand certain philosophical topics I’d been struggling in with ease, all in a warm style akin to a conversational fireside-chat. I highly recommend.
Jesse is as kind and good at listening as he is brilliant and effective in instruction. His passion shines through his masterful grasp of the subject matter and desire for his students to achieve the same.
Dr. Peterson helped me prepare for my SAT’s in reading and writing. He was very thorough and always quick to answer all my questions, definitely recommend!
Jesse Peterson (of Logos Tutoring) is a knowledgeable, personable, and effective tutor and teacher. His high IQ and EQ allow him to connect with primary, undergraduate, and graduate level students, help them to identify education goals and challenges, and make meaningful, sustainable progress towards those goals. I am an experienced tutor myself, and would recommend no one as highly as Jesse Peterson.
