Sto studiando maltese con Jordan da oltre un anno: grazie alle sue capacità pedagogiche e umane, la motivazione è sempre alta ed ogni lezione è interessantissima. Scopro sempre qualcosa di nuovo, qualche sfumatura linguistica che la rende unica. Non è facile trovare un professore con queste caratteristiche, con questa vitalità, con questa costanza, con questa pazienza e, soprattutto, con l'amore per ciò che fa. Posso veramente dire che Jordan è una perla rara nel contesto dell'insegnamento e invito chiunque voglia approcciare questa lingua a farlo con Jordan, che ormai per me è diventato un vero mito e un appuntamento settimanale immancabile! Grazie prof!

彼のレッスンの内容、教材、宿題は英語力向上のために大変役に立ちます。特に日本人にとっては、以下の2点から彼のレッスンはお勧めです。①彼は日本在住であり、レッスンの時間帯が合わせやすいこと②彼は日本語も堪能なため、初心者であっても、問題なくコミュニケーションが取れること。英語学習ではありませんが、彼は、東京のおいしいマルタ料理のレストランやマルタのイベントを紹介してくれます。ちなみに、彼が紹介してくれたマルタ料理のレストランは、大変美味しく、私のお気に入りのレストランの一つになりました。

I have been taking Maltese lessons with Jordan for some time now and I could not recommend him more! His lessons are always so informative and help me to get more confident speaking Maltese and bettering my understanding of grammar so that I can start putting together actual sentences. If you have been thinking about giving Maltese lessons a try, go with Jordan!

I just started my 2nd year of learning Maltese and though the language is really challenging at times, I've enjoyed learning it, especially with an exceptional teacher like Jordan. I've come so far since the first lesson when all I knew was 'grazzi ħafna' and I can't wait to see how much further I'll be able to progress over the next year (and the years beyond that, too). I'm so glad that I met Jordan and that he continues to want to share this lovely language with anyone interested in it.

I’ve only just started working with my Maltese teacher and haven’t had any actual lessons yet, but I’ve had a few conversations with him to get things set up and plan everything out. He comes across as a really genuine, easy-going guy and he’s been great to talk to. He explains things clearly, is patient, and already makes the whole process of learning a new language feel less intimidating. Even at this early stage, he gives off the impression of someone who knows how to teach properly and actually cares about his students getting results rather than just running through material. Looking forward to starting the lessons properly.

Studiare maltese con Jordan è un'esperienza unica e fantastica! La sua passione per la lingua è contagiosa e le sue lezioni non sono mai noiose: le aspetto con impazienza per tutta la settimana. Oltre alla lingua, trasmette l'amore e l'orgoglio per la storia e le tradizioni di Malta, rendendo ogni lezione un viaggio culturale. È estremamente paziente e sempre disponibile a chiarire ogni dubbio. Un vero punto di riferimento: insomma, con lui io viaggio a Malta ogni settimana! Grazie mille!
