Hello! My name is Benjamin and I'm from the UK.
I used to live and work in Japan teaching elementary students but now I am back in the UK where I like to spend my time growing vegetables in the garden or folding origami models.

Me as a Teacher
I studied teaching English as a foreign language at university and gained my TESOL qualification in 2015. After I graduated, I spent 2 years in Japan teaching English to elementary school children. I have been teaching on itlaki for 3 years now. I really enjoy teaching both adults children and filling my classes with fun learning activities to make lessons engaging for students.
My lessons & teaching style
I like to focus on speaking communication as much as possible in class. I use the Let's go Text books and fun learning activates with younger students. For adults we will base each lesson around a theme which we will discuss and debate in the lesson.
I also really enjoy writing. So, for students who want to improve their writing skills in English, I offer a writing class where I will prompt you to write something in English which we will then discuss in the class.
