About Me
italki teacher since Sep 23, 2021Me as a Teacher
Firstly, please don't be nervous! I'm here to help you practice your English conversation skills and it's my job to try to make you feel comfortable and enjoy the class.
I studied Modern Languages at Liverpool University and I know how important it is to build your confidence when learning a language. So, I try to offer an informal, safe, encouraging, supportive environment where you can build you confidence and fluency in English without worrying about being judged. I'm happy to make corrections, but it's always done in a gentle way.
I'm friendly, warm and a good listener. I ensure that we always have things to talk about, but I'm also very happy to let you lead the conversation.My lessons & teaching style
I have flexible, informal approach to teaching, tailoring my lessons to your requirements. My teaching style is gentle, supportive and encouraging. The aim of each class is to encourage you to speak as much English as possible, so I try and cover subjects that will interest you. Sometimes we might look at an article together or watch a short video clip to give us material for discussion. Or perhaps you just want a 30 minute chat about your week. Some students chose to practice their IELTs discussion topics with me.
I encourage all students to book an initial 30 minute lesson to establish if my lesson style is suitable for you. I look forward to meeting you soon!My teaching material

The conversation makes me think something I have never thought before and I knew a lot of different expressions. A really nice talking. I really appreciate it!

Jo is the ideal conversational teacher I have been looking for, I particularly like her rich experience in life and her interest in psychological and social topics which makes the conversation in depth and meaningful. She gives feedback which greatly boosts my confidence in speaking.

Elegant is the word that describes Jo and her lessons. She is very patient, which helps me feel less anxious even when I can't find the right words to express myself.
