Ben is working with our international dancers and they are really enjoying the classes, especially the way he adjusts his methods for each individual student. Within our group are mixed levels and he adjusts accordingly. Great tutor!

When it became clear that we would all be "sheltering in place" for a long while, I took up a new hobby: Hebrew. I had no education or former experience with any Semitic language, so I was starting from scratch. Since then, I have been meeting with Ben for one hour a week, every Saturday morning. I greatly look forward to each lesson.
Ben is a very effective teacher. He is patient yet deliberate with each lesson, looking for the most efficient way to communicate difficult concepts. Ben is also personable and kind. We enjoy catching up after the lesson is finished.
I am very satisfied with my progress under Ben's guidance. After one year, I can read large portions of the Biblical text, along with being able to write and speak a decent amount. The language becomes increasingly interesting
