Welcoming Students of All Ages and Levels!
Hello, I'm Jonny, a native English speaker from Brighton, England, and I'm 44 years young. I'm passionate about ACDC, Oasis, Darts, Music and Sheffield Wednesday FC. I produce and release lofi music also - https://mrsilkyslofibeats.com My interests also include sports, military history, current events, and travel.
I bring a unique flavour to English teaching with my love for Drum and Bass, Punk, Rock, and Metal. I believe in embracing life, respecting one another, and having fun while we learn. Having lived in various countries, I now call Italy home.
Let's embark on this adventure together! - https://linktr.ee/JonnyTeacherMe as a Teacher
I hold a 120-hour TEFL certificate and have over ten years of teaching experience, including five years on Italki. I’ve had the pleasure of teaching children and adults in China, Spain, Slovakia, and Italy.
I've provided lessons in grammar, pronunciation, and conversation to groups ranging from two to thirty pupils, as well as one-on-one sessions.
I became a teacher nine years ago to seek more meaningful and rewarding experiences. Before that, I worked in pubs and clubs worldwide, but found it unfulfilling.
Teaching has brought me the challenge I craved and the opportunity to help students achieve their language goals.
I'm really excited to meet you!My lessons & teaching style
I am a patient, dedicated, and fun teacher committed to helping you achieve your language goals. I’ll tailor lessons to your needs to make learning English enjoyable and exciting!
For a more structured approach, I can provide a range of books from intermediate to advanced levels. My aim is to boost your confidence in speaking, and I'll be here to guide you every step of the way.
I’m here and ready to assist you on your language learning journey!

A very nice experience. I took an mock IELTS speaking test with Jonny. I used to be quite nervous under the pressure. But this time Jonny helped me be relaxed, which was a real boost in my performance. Besides, I got some useful suggestions and found my week spot, which is the part2. Thanks to Jonny again for being such a nice, patient and encouraging teacher!
