Hi.

I'm confused that this sentence "Jo meet a women who tells you that she teach English"

in this sentence, what is the "you" ? Jo ? me ? she?

The sentence is ungrammatical. " However, there is no obvious explanation of why "you" should appear. More context is needed to make sense of it, if indeed it does make sense.

The sentence is ungrammatical. The minimum corrections are:

"Jo meets a woman who tells you that she teaches English."

However, there is no obvious explanation of why "you" should appear. More context is needed to make sense of it, if indeed it does make sense.

Sorry in this case, it came from my textbook question.
So I can't tell you exactly about you

What was the question?

And did you copy the sentence exactly as it appears in the textbook?

Yes I was copied it exactly, except for using Jo instead You.

Well, by changing "You" to "Jo", you have muddled the sentence.

Even with "You", the textbook sentence is still incorrect in the other respects I mentioned.
