Hey, I’m Jay! 😄 Your English mindset coach for freedom-chasers. Learn English through Stoicism, business, and peak performance—no fluff, just real talk. Book a trial and own your upgrade. 🚀
🧡 I value authenticity, soooo —I sometimes drop the occasional spicy word when I’m excited, shocked, or just enjoying our conversations/ lessons. 😄
🤔 I ask a lot of questions. I love exploring big ideas with my students—like being an employee vs. an entrepreneur's life, what beliefs we follow that we didn't reason into following, intermittent fasting wins (or fails), and yes… are we alone in the universe? Let’s get curious!
🎯My lessons
✅Very conversational with you doing most of the talking, not because you will be forced, but because I am genuinely interested in your perspective on different areas of life.
✅I do have PPTs for A1, A2, A3 and B1 students, but after that, I'd like for us to talk and have real conversations while I guide and correct your English.
😎My Teaching Style:
✅I touch-type +/- 40 words a minute, so I like to type corrections in the chat so that I don't interrupt you speaking.
✅If you continue making simple mistakes when speaking, I will, on occasion, interrupt you to ask you to use the present perfect, for example, if you used the past simple incorrectly in the context of your words.My teaching material
