first of all Jesus was not qualified to receive tithe, he was not from levi, secondly only matthew that was qualified among the disciples of Jesus to receive tithe because he was from levi but there is no record of where he received tithe in the bible.
the present church don't need to tithe because
1. TITHING WAS A PART OF THE LAW OF MOSES; BELIEVERS ARE NOT UNDER THE LAW.

Romans, Galatians, and other New Testament passages make it clear that Christians are not under the law of Moses. That does not mean that we are lawless, because we are under the law of Christ (1 Cor. 9:20-21; James 1:25; 2:8, 12; Rom. 13:8-10). Those aspects of the Mosaic law that reflect the moral character of God are valid under the New Covenant and are repeated as commands in the New Testament. But the church is never commanded to tithe.

2. Tithes were given to the Levites and priests, but there are no Levites and priests in the new covenant. 

Levites and priests were tied to the sacrificial system of the old covenant. Now all believers are priests (1 Pet. 2:9; Rev. 1:6; 5:10; 20:6), with Jesus as our Melchizedekian high priest (Heb. 7).


I will come back to talk more about this but let me tell you something if you are still paying tithe or receiving tithe you should not forget the other mosaic law too
