About Ben
Hi! I'm Ben, a recent graduate of social anthropology from the university of Edinburgh, now living in Glasgow. I am a native English and Italian speaker, am fluent in Spanish after having studied the language for years (9/A* at GCSE; First in Spanish as a minor at university) and spending a year studying in Santiago, Chile. I also achieved A* in Italian GCSE, 9/A* in French GCSE and A in French A-level. I am qualified as a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) teacher and have experience online and in-person, from complete beginners to academics seeking literary advice for their research.
I am an engaging and hard-working tutor who believes deeply in the importance of learning languages, given the opportunities, connections and discovery that they create. I am excited to bring my skills to Superprof, where I hope to find more students who are interested in learning languages.

My teaching structure is flexible, dependent on whether we are studying for an exam, working over a short-intensive period or looking to take the development at a slower, though equally efficient, pace. Having studied various languages at all stages of education, including abroad, I believe the best way to learn is by immersing yourself in the language. We will discuss specific needs and studying plans in the first free session in order to find a structure which makes learning enjoyable and effective:
Classes would be split into two sections: the first 40 minutes will focus on the specific needs of the student, whether that is grammar, writing, reading or listening. The final 20 minutes will consist of a relaxed discussion about a certain topic, so that the student can practice their conversational skills.
Some weeks I might recommend watching a short film or listening to an audio (podcast, radio) during the week, which we can then reflect on in the following lesson. Spending sustained time immersed in the language is the most effective way to learn and allows learning to be an enjoyable experience.
I normally have 1-hour sessions, though can be flexible to the tutee's needs. If you have any questions please do get in touch, I look forward to beginning the classes!
Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the tutor.
Ben is a kind and caring tutor with a wonderful understanding of effective teaching methods. I have known him for a few years and have appreciated his hands on approach, his clear explanations, his patience with both younger and older learners.
Ben will guide you through the difficult morphology of Spanish with ease and will teach conversation with intercultural sensitivity. I wholeheartedly recommend him!
I met Ben when I was working on a new Italian tranlsation of The Great Gatsby and the first Italian translation of Eley Williams' The Liar's Dictionary. I was impressed by his deep interest in language and his intuitions on the meaning and possible translations of uncommon expressions. His way of helping me was nourished by his curiosity and authentic interest in different cutures and their expression through language. I would definetely reccomend Ben as a language teacher, also for his capacity of explaining difficult or complex concepts in the simplest way and his patience, preparation and care for clear communication.
