JONATHAN MORRIS is an English language educator, communication coach, and author dedicated to helping learners worldwide speak with clarity and confidence. He holds a Master of Arts in TESOL from the University of California, Los Angeles, and has spent over fifteen years developing speaking focused programs for students, professionals, and migrants in the United States, South Korea, and Colombia. His work bridges structured language instruction with mindset coaching, an approach he developed after observing that the greatest barrier for most learners is not vocabulary or grammar but the paralyzing fear of being judged when they open their mouths.
Jonathan is the creator of the online course Fluent Without Fear and the host of the podcast Speak Up, which reaches tens of thousands of listeners each month. His teaching philosophy is elegantly simple: speaking improves by speaking, not by waiting until you feel ready. This principle runs through all of his materials, from his free weekly practice videos to his intensive 30 day coaching programs.
