Tolobana – let’s talk to one another.
- In the Congolese trade language Lingala, the word tólóbana means “let’s talk to one another”: and that just about sums up what I’m about. Why tolobana?
My name’s John Phillips. I’m a mother-tongue speaker of English and a trained English teacher who loves to communicate and to help other people to communicate too.
On one hand I work for a language school which offers language tutoring in businesses in Zurich, but I also offer private English lessons in and around where I live in Hombrechtikon in Zurich Oberland. My English lessons can be tailored to fit the needs of you, the learner.
If you’re interested, I’d be more than happy to hear from you.
Let’s talk!

(New address from 24th March 2018)
If you are travelling from Rüti / Wolfhausen, drive past the Hombrechtikon place-name sign for about 300 metres and turn right into Tödistrasse, just before the Tobel bus stop.
Approaching from Hombrechtikon
If you are approaching from the centre of Hombrechtikon, follow the signs to Rüti. At the Tobel junction (the Methodist Church is on the left) turn left. Tödistrasse is the next turning on the left, just past the Tobel bus stop.
The entrance to our new flat is about 100 metres from the junction with Rütistrasse, on the left-hand side of the road.
The house number is number 9 and we are on the first floor.
There are a few visitor’s parking bays a short distance beyond the entrance, on the left.
Arriving by bus
If you arrive by bus from Bubikon, get off the bus at Tobel and follow Tödiweg until you get to Tödistrasse. Our house is on the right.
