Instructor

Jansen Polk

World Traveler and Tutor

Hey! I’m Jansen and I’ve been tutoring/teaching/coaching on and off for the last 8 or so years. I’m originally from Coppell, TX but I went to college at the University of Arkansas where I graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Marketing and International Business. I began tutoring while in school and after graduating I still did that occasionally but began coaching some hockey while I worked at a marketing agency until the summer of 2019. From the fall of 2019 to the spring of 2020 I traveled South America with my girlfriend where we did a mix of personal travel, volunteering, and teaching English. I am now teaching virtually as much as I can. I love teaching and helping students realize how they can succeed in various subject matters, both academically and personally.
