Jesse Bass has been tutoring and teaching Math through AB/BC Calculus, the Math and Science sections of the ACT, and the Math section of the SAT with Carnegie Prep for over 15 years! He was named The Math Whisperer in the New Canaan-Darien Magazine.
A New Englander at heart, Jesse moved back to Greenwich after graduating from Arizona State University with a degree in Business Management. It wasn’t long into his weekday 9-5 and weekend tutoring schedule before Jesse realized that his Sundays were more enjoyable than his Mondays and helping students build an appreciation for and experience success in math was what brought him the most joy. Jesse coached the basketball team at his alma mater, Greenwich High School, for seven years and still enjoys stepping onto the court himself from time to time.
Jesse now lives in New Canaan. If you ask Jesse’s 2 year old son, “What does daddy do?” his answer will be “Golf!” every time. When he’s not on the course sinking birdies, Jesse enjoys spending time with his wife and son, cat Motown, and friends.

Check back soon for classes with Jesse Bass
Every person Carnegie Prep has sent, from John (who helped me be the only girl in my class to get a 5 on physics!!) to Anya (who is the only reason I’m actually getting supplements done) and now Jesse, who finally is making me feel like I have a grasp on math, is so genuinely helpful or nice!

My daughter did so well with Jesse (an 800 on her Math Level 2!!!). He has done an amazing job building her confidence. I can’t say enough. In fact, my daughter said the saddest part about being done is that eventually she will have to give Jesse up. She is taking AP Multivariable Calc next year just to keep him!

I just wanted to take a moment, before SAT scores come in, to thank you for referring us to Jesse. He’s been great for our son in so many ways. He has a great way with young men – he speaks on their level – yet commands their respect and attention. Best of all, he has been a positive influence in the short time he worked with him.

My daughter’s results on the ACT Math and Science sections greatly improved after tutoring with Jesse. Her score improved by 5 points in the science section! Jesse developed a personable rapport with her and quickly identified what she needed. His explanations were thorough and insightful, and my daughter enjoyed working with him.

Jesse did an amazing job helping my son W. raise his SAT math score by 100 points!! W. has worked with another math tutor for quite some time and W. was getting frustrated with his math score. W. took the make-up SAT in February and he raised his math score from 700 to a perfect 800! Jesse helped him focus to achieve this score.

I worked with one of your tutors Jesse for the September ACT. I just wanted to let you know that after working with him my score increased from a 31 to a 34! We had focused on Science and Math, and my Science score went from a 28 to a 35. Just wanted to thank you for your all you do and say how amazing your tutors are!
