Salut ! (English below)
Je m'appelle Johann, je suis français et j'habite en France ! J'ai aussi la chance d'être un citoyen canadien et d'avoir beaucoup voyagé dans ma vie à travers le monde (Canada, Inde, Chine, Thaïlande, USA, Australie, Indonésie… et plein d'autres pays) ! J'adore la musique, les concerts et la gastronomie. Mais ce que j'aime surtout, c'est enseigner !

I always leave a lesson with Johann feeling good about my progress and encouraged to keep working hard. Each lesson is well structured, the resources used are excellent, and he has a great sense of humour.
I was nervous when starting to learn French as it's very easy to feel self-concious and silly when you don't know what you're doing. Johann always makes the process light-hearted enough that you have a lot of fun, but at the same time offers the depth required to really make excellent progress.
His English is outstanding, probably even better than my own. This allows him to give good contextual comparisons for what the meanings of words and sentences translate to in English.
It's not easy to decide which teacher may be right for you when first starting your journey on iTalki, but I strongly suggest using one of your trials on Johann.
I really cannot recommend him enough.

Another fun and interesting lesson with Johann. He is very understanding and helpful and really knows how to keep the conversation going. Each class I take with him goes right to the last second. He makes himself available and provides good resources and helpful advice that allows me to discover new and interesting things about the French language and culture. If you're thinking about it, definitely schedule a class with Johann; you won't be disappointed.

Johann is truly a one-of-a-kind teacher. Patient, kind, enthusiastic and empathetic; he is someone who tailors every lesson to your needs and is most encouraging. Learning a foreign language can at first seem like you are stepping into a dark forest, but with Johann’s thoughtful guidance, it feels more like a pleasant walk in the park. His lessons are always efficacious and delightful. Merci Johann, tu es extraordinaire! :)

Je suis tres heureux avec Johann. Aujourd'hui nous avons pratiqué la comprehension orale à travers des videos et discussions sur des artistes musicaux. A bientôt Johann!

Johann is clearly a professional, but is still very easy to talk with and empathetic to my perspective. He is completely prepared before the lesson starts, and he brings energy and focus to the lesson. Five stars

Johann spoke French the whole time to my 8 year old son. He did a great job helping my son with vocabulary. He jumped right into class, which as a parent I love! My son said at the end of class, "that was fun!"
