About me

Ben Gill, English teacher with 23 years experience

Born on the outskirts of London many moons ago, I grew up in a (quaint) village in Cambridgeshire, South East England… skip the boring details…. I moved to Madrid, Spain 23 years ago and having been teaching English ever since.

During the first Covid lockdown, I decided to make a couple of videos and upload them to YouTube in order to share my knowledge and experience with the millions (about 50 people saw those videos). I’ve made more than 200 videos and have somehow managed to accumualte over 100,000 subscribers. I can now call myself an online teacher, which I find extremely rewarding as I can reach, and help, so many people around the world.

I specialise in helping students prepare for the Cambridge English exams (B2 First, C1 Advanced & C2 Proficiency) but also share lessons on all aspects of English learning including vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation as well as speaking and writing tips.

Thanks for choosing me to help you!

My C2 Proficiency Preparation Course

"Fantastic course which thoroughly explains the structure of the exam at a very accessible price. Valuable tips to build both confidence and preparation for CPE Exam." Aldo Calipari

The C2 Proficiency Cambridge English exam is one of the most demanding English exams out there... but I guess that's one of the reasons you've decide to take it, right?

Whatever your reason and however much experience you have with the Cambridge English exams, you're going to need some guidance in order to pass the exam with the best score possible.

In my C2 Proficiency preparation course, I share with you all my tips on strategy and approach based on 20 years of experience helping students prepare for these tricky exams. We'll look at every part of the exam in detail and go through sample exercises so there are no surprises for you on the day of the exam. There are also regular quizzes to make sure you're paying attention!
