Hailing from Los Angeles, Jay Mitsch has spent 25+ years in education as a classroom math and science teacher, tutor, test prep specialist, coach, mentor and all around super fan of the students he's supported. Growing up in Philadelphia, he told his father that education was broken after a horrendous science lesson in 3rd grade. He went on to Muhlenberg College and majored in Mathematics, dual certified for elementary and secondary teaching and ended up teaching Math and coaching soccer in Boca Raton, FL. After 5 years in the classroom, he made the exciting jump from dealing with teenagers to dealing with Hollywood.

 

While learning the ropes in the film and television world, Jay created his own education company that was grounded in the belief that every student can learn and every student can succeed if given the exact support they need. Gravity Assist is the third iteration of Jay's unique vision of education. Gravity Assist spawned from the belief that all students, and people for that matter, are on their own path. Using planetary gravitational force principles and modern approaches, Gravity Assist slingshots the student further than imagined. 

 

Personally, Jay has a great wife and awesome 7 year old son. If he's not doing math, he's running, hiking or surfing or playing with his son.
