Sion Jones

Siôn is such a patient and encouraging teacher. I am just a beginner at Welsh but I learned quite a bit of vocabulary and pronunciation in my first lesson. Siôn created a safe space for me to try out pronunciation and new phrases and I wasn't afraid to make mistakes. I appreciated how he did not have me simply repeat phrases - he asked me to apply what I was learning by creating new combinations of words or recalling vocabulary from memory. This activated my brain more and is helping the learning stick. Diolch yn fawr iawn, Siôn!

Dwi wastad yn mwynhau gwersi gyda Siôn a edrych ymlaen at y un nesa. Mae Siôn gwneud yr gwersi yn hwyl, ddiddorol, a fy hyder wedi tyfu ers dechrau ddysgu gyda fe. Diolch mor fawr - wela i di yn fuan 😊

I enjoyed my first lesson with Siôn very much. Siôn is patient, encouraging and gives a calm, safe space for learners to use the Welsh they have while chatting about their interests. He offers explanations and other geirfa (vocabulary) which i enjoyed, and he answered any questions I had about words and different uses and meanings. I gained hyder throughout the lesson and am looking forward to the next one. Thank you so much Siôn!

This was my first proper lesson with Sion. The first one was a trail lesson. we went through the present tense and a bit of the past tense in a relaxed and interesting way. I found myself speaking more Welsh and feeling more relaxed about speaking it. One day I will be fluent.

This was a trail lesson and I have definitely booking up more lessons with Sion he is very calm and very helpful and I think we got through a lot
