About me - English
Hello everyone!
My name is Ben and I've been teaching in Vietnam for a few years now. I love being outdoors, hiking or relaxing at the beach ;) I'm married and live in a small city on the coast of Vietnam. Before I became a teacher I worked in advertising in London for ten years, which is where I'm originally from.
As much as I love being outside I've also been know to spend a lazy afternoon watching films or reading. I love horror films and prefer to read non fiction books on business, mind management and psychology.
I have 4 cats (I'm not a crazy cat person, I promise! Haha) and also enjoy playing computer games on my laptop or Xbox.
I'm friendly, well spoken and patient and I hope to speak to you soon!
