Read the amazing testimonials below to see how Ben is helping TPRS teachers around the world!

"Ben, I need an extra day off just to read the content in the PLC, ponder and digest. It's just too good, but that's the nice thing about there always being more than I can take in. I know that when I go there, I am never disappointed." Dr. Robert Patrick University of Georgia * Ben's books and PLC membership are the required course materials in Dr. Patrick's graduate course in education at the University of Georgia - LLED 7045 Comprehensible Input and Second Language Acquisition.		"Ben, thank you for providing these amazing resources for all of us.  Your PLC is always my first (and usually the only) stop when I am in need of some guidance and/or support as I embark on the wonderful journey of teaching the TPRS way. Not only do you provide invaluable resources that make my daily life so much easier and allow me to focus on improving my TPRS skills, but you encourage the exchange with like-minded individuals who so freely share of themselves and their vast experience. If it were not for your membership and the contributions of all our wonderful colleagues, I wouldn't have had the confidence to jump head-first into these unchartered waters. Now, I'm so glad I did and I will never look back!" Brigitte K.		"Ben,  I've been applying my reading in Stepping Stones and have been amazed at how much my classes have changed. There's a much lighter mood to them and the kids love their jobs. Thanks again for everything so far - every week is becoming more fun and I look forward to my CI classes very much!" Jason Bond
"Stepping Stones was twice as impactful as attending a multi-day CI/TPRS conference. Reading it in late-August helped me establish, in those precious first days, a rapport and procedure that are putting my year on a whole new level. Stepping Stones has leveled the playing field by systematically translating CI theory into CI teaching - with any personality. It will give any new practitioner confidence to move forward. Liam O'Neill		"All I have to say is that Ben's Professional Learning Community membership has quickly become the rock of my professional sanity, the center of my focus for the future, the direction that I have been looking for nine years of teaching.  This is also my first year with TPRS and it is positively affirming to see others doing what I am also trying in my class! How ironic to get that here when I do not even get that kind of professional sharing amongst the teachers I work with on a daily basis" Brian O.		My teacher friends and I rave about you and quote you all the time! I love Blaine and Von Ray's work, but I didn't grasp the TPRS method until I read your book "TPRS in a Year". I was then able to envision my new way of teaching. (This is also what my teacher friends have experienced.) You saved me (us). I owe you my teaching life! I was ready to quit. Things aren't perfect, but I have only just starting my adventure with TPRS. I am pretty happy with how these past eleven weeks have gone - much better than my previous 9 years using the textbook.  Thank you for your books and your inspiration.  You are incredible!  You are the best! Thank you, Alani C.

....there’s something metaphysical about this approach…it’s almost mindfulness of language.  It is throwing away the
shackles of the analytical, conscious, right/wrong, ego-based mind…and diving into the blue waters of the imagination…
- Katherine Burke

The deeper mind parses languages millions of times faster than the conscious mind, and with no visible effort.
It is like a gift from God. It IS a gift from God. Treat it that way. You’re not in charge
of your students’ learning – their deeper minds are. You can be of service to that process or not by providing
your students with plenty of high quality CI. But it wouldn’t be anything new if you didn’t.

Accept the gift in gratitude. Don’t be so full of pride that you think you can teach someone a language. You can’t.
You aren’t that talented. You can only present the language to them in large quantities of input that they can understand.
The students’ deeper mind bosses will then do the rest and you will be amazed at what the kids can do over time.

MAKE IT COMPREHENSIBLE!
