My name is Joe - I’m a native Welsh speaker and a Welsh tutor here on iTalki. I was born and raised in Aberystwyth, west Wales, and attended Welsh-medium schools throughout my education. I graduated from Oxford University with a degree in Japanese with Chinese. I love teaching and learning languages :)
NOTE: *I require a minimum of 12 hours' notice for lesson cancellations in order for you to receive a refund*.
I can teach through the medium of English, French, Spanish or Japanese.
Je peux aussi enseigner en français. Si vous souhaitez des cours en français, n'hésitez pas à réserver!
Si deseas lecciones en español, ¡no dudes en reservar!
日本語でも教えますので日本人の皆様ぜひ、ご連絡ください。
Meine Kreationen
Ich als Lehrkraft
I have significant experience in personal tutoring and working within education more generally. I have been tutoring languages for 5 years now and have also worked as a teaching assistant in Welsh-medium secondary schools. I teach *both North and South dialects*.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
I offer three main ‘types’ of teaching:
> Free Conversation - Examples of possible conversation topics include hobbies, news, language learning, and Wales/Welsh Culture.
> Grammar/Vocabulary - We will take a detailed look at Welsh grammar, suited to your level. We can go at whatever speed you like.
> Advanced - We will take a look at newspaper articles and learn advanced Welsh vocabulary.
I can teach some grammar in conversation classes, but note that conversation is always the main focus in those classes. If you would like structured grammar classes (50+% of our time spent studying grammar), I would recommend choosing the grammar class.
Joe was brilliant. He was very calm and patient. He listened to what I was saying throughout the lesson and answered any questions I had relating to the beautiful welsh language. He explained everything throughly in a way that I could understand and asked if I understood what was said and if I had any questions or anything. Will certainly be booking again and will 100% recommend Joe to anyone thinking of learning the welsh language.

Joe is a great teacher and is able to explain Welsh grammar to me in a way that is easy to understand and remember. This was my first lesson with Joe. Before, I have been learning Welsh independently and casually with family. He encouraged me to build my own sentences which made me feel more confident in my ability. If I made a mistake, I felt encouraged for trying. I will definitely be booking more lessons with Joe. After one lesson, I feel more motivated to learn Welsh! Diolch yn fawr iawn!

I am a relative beginner at Welsh and Joe was terrific at clarifying some points about the language. Very logical and succinct instruction.

Joe is a patient and supportive teacher who gives you plenty of time to express yourself and carefully consider your thoughts. He takes notes on unfamiliar words or phrases, making it easy to review and practice later, and his clear and neutral accent is simple to understand even for beginners. I’m looking forward to continuing my lessons with him!
