Writing: improve the precision and organisation of your written English.
Business English: practise through mock presentations, interviews, and telephone calls.

The top tier teacher😊 His encyclopaedic knowledge covers anything and he never commodifies himself in the basic topics. He is well suitable if you want to stretch your limits to the highest. His sharp brain never bores you.

His teaching is impeccably well-structured. He always knows how to put students in a right direction for better. Although you can get many takeaways from his lessons, nothing beats his razor-sharp insight. His bottomlessly deep knowledge sparks in every lesson, thus, you will always find it stimulating in his sessions.

I've been going to Johan's classes for over three years now. Says a lot, doesn’t it?

He is the finest teacher who really knows how to put into students perspective. He has a fine combination of generosity like a mother who knees down to meet her eyes to her kid’s and a charisma like a martial art master who lets his actions teach.

Johan is definately the finest English instructor in italki! What truly elevates him is his encyclopedic mastery—he seamlessly intertwines World War I chronicles (from trench warfare’s ethical labyrinths to propaganda’s psychological warfare), philosophy, and interdisciplinary wisdom into every single lesson.He dissects my stress errors with laser-guided accuracy (spotting phonetic micro-shifts even linguists overlook!), yet wraps each correction in a warmth that turns fear into fuel.If you seek a mentor who doesn’t just teach language but unlocks global perspectives, Johan is definately your best choice.

I’ve been taking Johan’s class for six months. He’s dynamic, responsible, and professional. Over the past six months, we’ve worked on various topics, and my English has improved a lot. I highly recommend him and you’ll find he’s excellent.
