CELTA qualified professional English teacher with 14 years of experience. Hi, I am a graduate and native English speaker with 14 years teaching experience, both in the U.K and abroad. I studied at UCL, where I obtained a BA Honours Degree in Medieval Archaeology and Art History. My many interests include, history, literature, travelling, art and music. I started teaching in Vietnam in 2010, where I obtained my CELTA teaching qualification, and taught at various schools, including Hanoi Academy Bilingual School. On returning to the UK, I initially taught in Southampton and then at The Winchester School of English, where I was employed as a full-time teacher for over four years, teaching both general and exam preparation classes. For the last five years, I have been concentrating on one to one online classes. I really enjoy teaching students of all ages and nationalities. The aim of my online lessons, is to provide teaching based on each student's specific interests and requirements. Having a neutral British accent, you will find my classes easy to understand and I take great pleasure in building your self-confidence. I offer many different class types, including English Conversation, English Skills, IELTS, CAE and FCE exam preparation, Pronunciation and a class on British Culture. You can view more information about these on my teacher page. I hope we will have fun and enjoy learning together and I look forward to meeting you online soon.

Jonathan is one of the most amazing, kind, patient, supportive and professional teachers I've met on italki. From our lessons I've learned so much from him, and what he has taught me is not only about English speaking, but knowledge that has penetrated and inspired every aspect of my understanding of the world. Jonathan is an brilliant teacher, and an extremely wise and intelligent one. I highly recommend everyone whoever is reading this comment to book a trail lesson with him, and I'm sure you'll not regret it. (●°u°●) 」

Top of the tops as always! Jonathan clarifies my doubts, corrects my pronunciation and writing. Lessons are interesting and at the same time funny. For that reason I learn a lot with him.
