About Me
italki teacher since Mar 30, 2015
Hey guys, I’ve been living in South east Asia for 11 years. I worked in broadcasting for 20 years as a presenter for the biggest radio networks in Paris before becoming Program and Marketing Director for radio stations all over Europe. In 2013, after a world tour through 55 countries, I decided to leave my parisian comfort zone to live my dream in Thailand where I taught French in schools and in one to one. Now I’m based in Bali. I’m still working as a broadcasting consultant, personal Coach (CBT / NLP) and French teacher.

Ben is without doubt the most effective teacher I have ever worked with on any subject that I have learned. I am a college professor and teach for a living and i can say without any hesitation that Ben is a consummate professional. His pedagogy is strong to the point that he makes complex subjects completely accessible. What goes beyond his professionalism however, is his intuitive understanding of what makes it easy for a student to learn and his patience and determination. All of this makes learning French with Ben a satisfying and fun experience. I highly recommend him for students just starting out, all the way to advanced students looking for fluency! Best teacher I ever had!

He is a great teacher. He is incredibly encouraging and patient and always is punctual, professional, and engaging. I have French classes all day and honestly I learn more in one hour of practical conversation with him and than three at my school. I can't recommend him enough. Honestly, I've gotten compliments on how much I've improved and I know it is his doing, he works tirelessly and kindly to correct my pronunciation and grammar that is the foundation of any progress I have. I am lucky to have him as a teacher and I would recommend him to anyone at any level.

Ben is incredibly relatable, charismatic, and sociable. He's so encouraging with a super bright personality, and always imparts some wisdom, advice, and inspiration, both with regards to french and with regards to life! You come to just learn a bit of French, but always leave with a little bit more than just that hahah.
