Jonathan Kimball

Jonathan is an amazing teacher, he´s very knowledgeable and able to explain not just the grammar but also the nuances of vocabulary and subtle difference between word meanings. He´s also a very entertaining person and this makes time fly during the lesson as learning feels very fun!

Jonathan is my favorite teacher on italki. I am absolutely happy with each class. I like that he corrects the speech, the pronunciation and also offers some sentences how to express yourself in a better way. After each lesson he sends the notes he is taking during the class with problematic points that require attention. Moreover, Jonathan is very multitasking. He helped me a lot with English grammar, conversation, with preparation for an job interview as well as preparation for a nursing NCLEX exam. Sometimes we just have an interesting conversations about various things. I am happy that my intuition helped me to find Jonathan. Jonathan has a great personality, he is kind, patient, helpful, have a nice sense of humor. And I really see a progress in my overall English skills. I do strongly recommend Jonathan as a teacher.

We started with some small talk and then moved on to discussing the history of my hometown, describing photos and talking about local products and amenities. He kindly corrected my mistakes, especially with the present perfect vs past simple and plural forms. I really appreciated how he pushed me out of my comfort zone, encouraging me to explain complex ideas even when I didn’t know the exact vocabulary (for example words like ‘siege’, ‘world heritage site’ or ‘seasonal celebrations’). There’s a lot to learn from him, and he shows genuine interest in the topics you bring to the lesson

After three months of learning with Jonathan, I successfully completed my IELTS exam. He was amazingly helpful in increasing my speaking skills and preparing me for the IELTS speaking task. I would recommend taking lessons with him because he has plenty of useful advice and can prepare you very well. Even though I've already finished my IELTS preparation, I am still going to continue with our lessons to improve my English skills, and I trust that with Jonathan, I will reach my goals. Thank you very much!!!

im gonna recommend you to my classmates！you are a so professional English teacher ！i will definitely practice my oral English

I had a very good trial lesson with Jonathan. He was attentive, professional and very clear in his explanations. During the lesson he carefully noted my mistakes and provided useful corrections on vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation, which helped me understand how to improve my English. The feedback was detailed and practical, making the lesson both engaging and productive. I would definitely recommend him as an English teacher
