About Me
italki teacher since Mar 22, 2019Interest topicSports & FitnessHistoryTravelMusicReading
Hey there, I'm Jonny. I'm a native English speaker from Brighton, England, and I'm 44 years old.
Passionate about ACDC, Oasis, Darts, and Sheffield Wednesday Football Club!
I enjoy talking about a wide range of topics, including sports like football, darts, and snooker, as well as history, current events, music, and travel.
I'm not your typical English teacher—I love DnB, Punk, Rock, and Metal!
Love life, people, and treating one another with respect! We're here to learn and have fun! Let's carry that out!
I've had the good fortune to reside in a number of different nations across the world, and I currently call Italy home.
ONLY STUDENTS OVER THE AGE OF 16, PLEASE. THANKS!Me as a Teacher
I have a 120-hour TEFL certificate and have taught children and adults in China, Spain, Slovakia, and Italy for more than 4 years on Italki and 9 years overall!
I've given lessons in grammar, pronunciation, and conversation to groups of two to thirty pupils as well as one-on-one sessions.
Nine years ago, I decided to become a teacher because I wanted more out of life and to be of service to others.
Before I started teaching, I worked in pubs and clubs all around the world, but eventually it got boring and there was no challenge.
This challenge has come from teaching, but more importantly, it has allowed me to help pupils reach their language objectives.
I am really excited to meet you!!My lessons & teaching style
I'm a patient, enjoyable, and committed teacher who will make every effort to aid you in achieving your language objectives.
I'll pay attention to your needs, provide you with the best assistance I can, and use games and other entertaining activities to make learning English interesting and exciting!
If you want something more structured, I can share and give you a number of books that we can use that range in difficulty from beginner to intermediate.
I want my pupils to have self-assurance when speaking, and I'll be here to guide you through the process.
I'm here and willing to assist you!!My teaching material
