Hello, my name is Jon. I'm from USA. I love traveling, hiking, photography, and writing music and of course, learning languages like French and Chinese! Exploring new cultures and connecting with people around the world is something I'm truly passionate about. Language learning has opened so many doors for me, both personally and professionally. I enjoy experimenting with fun, creative, and effective ways to learn. Whether it’s through music, storytelling, or real-life conversation, I believe learning should be engaging and meaningful. I'm always happy to share tips and methods that have worked for me. Let’s enjoy the language journey together and make it something you truly look forward to!Me as a Teacher

How can I describe learning English experience with Jon? Well, it doesn't matter much, which topic we discuss - I can be sure, that Jon will share his thoughts, ask appropriate questions and my opinion on that subject with all plausible tangents 😉 that's what I mean by easy flowing natural conversation and genuine way to learn English 👍
