David Rhys Jones

President / Language Trainer

Accent:

Dave has been working in the education industry for over 12 years. As a teacher, he is mostly appraised for his ability to create an enjoyable working atmosphere and has a special talent for helping those with confidence issues. Helping people overcome their mental barriers and communicate effectively is his passion and was the driving force behind him creating Mr Jones Language Academy with Ceri as he feels that his philosophy and method, created over 12 years by listening to his students and refining his ideas, will greatly benefit speakers of English as a foreign language.

In his personal time, Dave's passion is skiing. He is also a ski instructor and for a few months per year you will find him teaching on the slopes of Zermatt in Switzerland.

Hannah Roberts

Language Trainer

Speaks:

Accent:

Passionate about linguistics, I love learning new languages. Having started at a beginner level in French and Turkish, I empathize with students and believe that a good teacher is always friendly, patient and adaptable to individual student needs. My role as a teacher is to make your learning experience both enjoyable and educational, and to help you feel comfortable using your new language skills. With degrees in English Literature and Philosophy, I am both an avid reader and a film buff. In my spare time, I like to play board games and do puzzles. I am currently writing my first novel!
