Benjamin Jelen has traveled the world as an English Trainer and Professor for both Universities and Corporate institutions. He received his M.A. in Second Language Acquisition and Teaching from the University of New England, and holds multiple Bachelor Degrees from the University of Arizona, located in Tucson, USA.
