Hey there, I'm Jay, you like jokes? Let me give you one, okay? Why did the tomato blush🍅? Because it saw the salad dressing. Me in a nutshell, ladies and gentlemen. Let's get ridiculously serious:

Me as a Teacher
Before I tell you why there's a picture of me when you look up, teacher, in the dictionary, let me tickle your funny bone with one more dry joke. What did one plate 🍝whisper to the other plate🍽? Dinner is on me.
🤔❓Why choose me as your teacher?
You should choose me as your teacher because I know the value of fun during classes and I know how to promote and inspire people to speak in English. I not only use fun but I also use proven teaching methods that I have been trained in through my certificates to ensure that my students achieve the lesson objectives and most importantly acquire the language over time
My lessons & teaching style
🎯Why are my lessons interesting yet effective?
I believe it’s because they combine fun, and interaction to help my students learn. Learning a language is very much like learning how to swim, you can’t learn how to swim by simply reading about it. You must get into the water. So, my lessons follow the simple philosophy that fun inspires interaction and interaction inspires practical use of the English language.

✅They are awesome!

✅I use Off2Class which includes PPT's, English game shows & quizzes, homework assignments, and so much more.
