After taking lessons from Benji for almost 2 years now, I can honestly say that he's motivated me to continue to learn french as much, if not more than when I started. All of our lessons are high engaging, fun, and most of all I learn something new each class. Sometimes we have a planned lesson and sometimes we just talk about a fun topic for an hour. Don't hesitate to request a class with Benji if you're looking to improve your french and have a great time while doing it!

Benji is an outstanding instructor who strikes a fantastic balance between clarity, patience, and encouragement. He does an amazing job of breaking things down so they make sense without making you feel rushed or overwhelmed when you can't quite figure it out. The atmosphere is relaxed and positive, and the lessons flow nicely from topic to topic, taking time to dig in and super focus where necessary. He also shares fantastic resources and materials that really help during and after the lessons. tl;dr - Benji rocks, and I always look forward to a lesson with him.

Great first impression! He really knows his stuff and he’s very adaptable to the needs of his students. His experience and skills really shine through. Du coup, je vais certainement réserver d’autres séances avec lui! Merci! :)

Benji is a fantastic teacher. His personality is very approachable, and is crystal clear when explaining concepts and grammar. He uses technology extremely effectively, whether that is shared notes, or structured exercises that you can refer back to after the lesson. What stands out most is how natural the lessons feel. It genuinely feels like a conversation, yet Benji is guiding you to use new grammar, vocabulary, and ideas without it ever feeling forced. Each session is engaging, varied, and built around interesting topics, so no two lessons feel the same. I cannot recommend Benji highly enough. Merci!
