Helô! I’m Joe, a native Welsh speaker from Aberystwyth with a passion for sharing my language and culture. I graduated from Oxford University with a degree in Japanese with Chinese. I was born and raised in Aberystwyth, west Wales. I offer tuition to adults of all abilities, and share all the tips and tricks I have used to learn 5+ languages with my pupils. Many of my students would say this makes me a uniquely valuable tutor. I specialize in helping adult learners crack the quirks of Welsh—whether mastering tricky pronunciations like ‘y’ or untangling grammar knots. *P.S. Cancellations require 12 hours’ notice for refunds—thanks for understanding!* I have developed my own personal Welsh course, which covers all levels up to C1. All of my students have access to this course! I have significant experience in personal tutoring and working within education more generally. I started tutoring French and Spanish at the age of 18, and have been tutoring Welsh now for over 2 years. I have also developed a number of flashcard decks, which I will share with you. I am particularly interested in the specific issues and pain points for adult Welsh learners and have developed exercises for many such problems. These include pronunciation of 'y', use of the linking word 'yn/'n', and memorising conjugated forms of 'gwneud', to name just a few! I offer two main ‘types’ of teaching: > Conversation - Examples of possible conversation topics include hobbies, news, language learning...

Joe was super friendly and gave a great combination of examples, explanations and questions to check my understanding. Looking forward to my next lesson with him!

Joe was brilliant. He was very calm and patient. He listened to what I was saying throughout the lesson and answered any questions I had relating to the beautiful welsh language. He explained everything throughly in a way that I could understand and asked if I understood what was said and if I had any questions or anything. Will certainly be booking again and will 100% recommend Joe to anyone thinking of learning the welsh language.

I highly recommend Joe as a Welsh tutor to anyone seeking to learn the language. His calm and patient teaching style, coupled with his supportive nature, creates an ideal learning environment. Working with Joe has not only improved my Welsh language skills but has also instilled in me a deeper appreciation for the culture. I am truly grateful for the positive and enriching experience Joe has provided, and I look forward to continuing my Welsh lessons with Joe.

Excellent lesson! Diolch yn fawr. From the first lesson, Joseff takes his time to get acquainted, walk you through your goals, the alphabet, basic pronunciation, all the way through speaking complete sentences in one short class (it went by very quickly). He is extremely patient and I really appreciate that he takes his time. You will not feel rushed and will have time to take in the new information and process it. He encourages you to try to use what you have learned and you’ll have many chances to listen and speak. Great class and I highly recommend!
