About Me
italki teacher since Jul 21, 2020Interest topicSports & FitnessTravelFilms & TV Series
I love motivating my students by giving them a wide range of interesting and thought provoking materials. I love getting to know students interests to encourage them to speak freely and develop their fluency about things they are passionate about. I want my students to feel comfortable talking to me and not be afraid of making mistakes. I realise that learning is sometimes difficult and being a language fanatic myself I can motivate students and empathise with problems. I can provide students with vocabulary lists as well as reading lists to help them make english part of their daily routine. I frequently use screen sharing and powerpoints and videos to help with listening and reading.Me as a Teacher
I have been teaching English since September last year where I started teaching in Moscow with both a language school and an Educational Consultancy company. In September I obtained a TEFL qualification to teach English to foreigners. In Moscow I have taught Intermediate/Advanced level adult students with the language school and Russian students with the consultancy company. I helped Russian students apply to English schools and Universities. This involved proofreading applications and 11+ test preparation. I also taught Key Stage 4 level History to two students. I also have experience as a mentor helping students with homework and improving their academic english and keep them motivated.My lessons & teaching style

Очень нравятся уроки и лёгкий свободный стиль преподавания. Всегда радостное настроение, на позитиве. Всегда вовремя, надёжно и организовано. Индивидуально подбирает задания, картинки, тексты, ориентируясь на уровень знаний. Рекомендую детям и взрослым учить язык с Беном!

Отличный урок! Учитель очень талантливо нашёл подход к моему изучению языка (письменные ответы мне легче воспринимать пока, чем на слух). Домашние задания и тексты очень помогают. Спасибо!

Отличный преподаватель, уроки идут радостно и эффективно. Помогает, обучает и корректирует произношение мягко, без давления и критики. Очень комфортно учиться и мне и сыну. Всем рекомендую!
