Classes with Jonathan offer a unique experience worth trying firsthand. He is not only a skilled English teacher but also a wise man who can discuss various topics. You can talk to him about almost anything: crypto, AI, photography, traveling, literature. Our classes are something I look forward to every week. Besides good conversations, he has helped me speak more fluently, enhance my vocabulary, and correct old speaking mistakes I didn't know I had. I recommend Jonathan to anyone who wants to learn English in a relaxed manner through meaningful discussions.

Jonathan是一位超级好的老师。他有很多很多的学习资料,像哆啦A梦一样。当你遇到一个感兴趣的话题或者这个方面出现问题需要强化的时候,他总会很神奇的发给你一个PDF资料,是一位非常专业的老师。 但是并不止这些,他还是一位知识渊博和智慧的老师。他懂得很多中国的文化,他还教我呼吸放松,教我学会接纳。 我在开会的时候想起他,会呼吸放松,觉得很温暖。 很有幸遇到这么一位温暖又智慧的好老师。

Jonathan really helped me gain confidence in speaking English. My main problem was that I wasn’t sure of myself – I kept worrying about the grammar mistakes I might make and so on. At that time, I had to do a lot of communication while job hunting, and at some point I just switched off the self-doubt and turned on confidence. That made a huge difference for me. Another thing is that Jonathan always has the right materials for any question. He’ll literally flood you with PDFs tailored to your topic of interest. If you’re curious about an STAR methodology, he’ll send you a PDF about that. If you’re into science, he’ll provide scientific texts for you to break down, see how sentences are built, and learn the rules in context. Jonathan is a true professional.

Vocvô John isn’t just a teacher, he’s a friend! ❤️ One of the best decisions I made this year was choosing him as my English teacher to improve my English. I’m so grateful for all your patience, support, and encouragement. Thank you so much, John! 🥰
