Online English Language Tutor Jonathan

With over 20 years’ experience transforming some of the UK’s toughest classrooms and delivering online education to students across 43 countries, I am a Leading International Educator and Award-Winning Tutor specialising in English, History, and Politics from KS3 to postgraduate level.

My approach combines academic rigour with a friendly, motivational, results-driven style that helps students reach their full potential. Under my leadership, English and History pass rates at my institution rose by over 25%, and my private students have consistently achieved exceptional results — 96% attaining or exceeding their target grades, with many progressing to Oxbridge, the University of Heidelberg, and top independent schools such as Bromsgrove and Rugby.

Beyond the classroom, I bring real-world insight and mentorship to my teaching. I have extensive experience in property investment and financial literacy, having supported young professionals and entrepreneurs in making informed decisions about their financial futures. I have also worked as an informal mentor helping young people disengage from gang activity — one of the most meaningful experiences of my career.

Beyond consistently strong results, my pupils benefit from a relaxed yet intellectually challenging atmosphere that fosters both confidence and academic growth. Strengthening self-esteem and sparking intellectual curiosity, I am committed to providing every learner with the finest possible education.

My teaching practice embraces the cutting edge of modern pedagogy, particularly in the use of technology, resources, and blended learning methods. My tutoring approach combines innovation with rigour through:

Industry-standard video-conferencing and presentation tools, including Miro — used by global brands such as Coca-Cola and Nike — to power dynamic, collaborative learning experiences.

Powerful virtual learning environments, resourced through leading educational providers such as Twinkl and Century Tech, enabling every learner to maximise their potential.

Judicious integration of AI-powered tools, helping students analyse key educational concepts, engage with mark schemes, and study model answers effectively.

Fully personalised lessons, precisely tailored to the topics, abilities, and goals of each learner.

Interlocking homework tasks, designed to reinforce and extend the concepts explored in each session.

Creative and innovative approaches, from using computer games as a stimulus for creative writing (as featured by UK exam boards), to thought-provoking debates on contemporary issues such as “How Will AI Change Humanity?” for speaking and listening assessments.

A warm, engaging teaching style, making learning enjoyable yet intellectually rigorous at all times.

Throughout my career, I have been recognised for my commitment to ensuring that no learner is ever left behind, combining creativity, empathy, and high expectations to make learning both meaningful and enjoyable. I passionately believe that education should be a joy — and I strive to ensure it is exactly that for every student, whether in the classroom or online.
