About Paul

I have been described by others as someone that was "born to teach." I love it and no matter what I'm doing in my life, there is always an aspect of it that is involved with teaching. When I worked in the television industry in New York City, I also volunteered teaching English in the evenings to working adults. During my time teaching high school English in South Korea, I also tutored kids and adults. While I was an English Teacher at an American high school, I also coached sports, won the teacher of the year award, and was the vice-president of the teachers association. Throughout my years working in Saudi Arabia, I instructed adults in English and Math, coached my own dance group and sports club. Currently, I'm working in IT/Marketing/Sales and Training back in America, but I also volunteer teaching English with a local church. I'm a positive person that wants to help you improve in any way that I can - it's what I was born to do.

Perfect! I wanted classes to improve my confidence in speaking English. Paul has been super professional, nurturing a nonjudgmental environment where I could find my words easily and at the same time get helpful feedback into vocabulary and grammar of my sentences structure.

Paul's response
Farya, it was a pleasure working with you in our first session. You have such a warm and welcoming presence, and your dedication to improving your English is truly inspiring. Your goal of being able to communicate authentically in English, just as you do in your first language, is both admirable and essential for your work in the medical field. I look forward to supporting you as you work toward this important goal!

Perfect! Best experience. Paul is really thoughtfully approaching the lessons, finding ways how to give our son best possible learning experience. And the fact that our son Jachym is looking forward to next lessons proves that it works. The progress can be seen even after only a few lessons.

I was able to
Jachym did a fantastic job during our first English lesson! He was engaged and participated well throughout the session. While he needs to work on building his speaking confidence and expanding his vocabulary, he demonstrated solid reading skills, which was great to see. As we continue, we’ll focus on helping him become more comfortable speaking English and improving his vocabulary. I’m excited about his potential for progress with consistent practice!

I am an ESL teacher and coordinate a team of ESL teachers.
Paul taught with us for 3 years. He is a wonderful teacher. When we had new teachers, we would team them with Paul, so they could learn how to teach from him.
Paul was also our most popular teacher. Some students would drive 20 minutes, just to be in his class.
Anyone who wants to learn English would have a real opportunity and privilege to have Paul as a teacher.

I’ve been practicing my English for a several years with Paul. He helped me to go through the most though time in school, when I was in the 5th grade and had troubles in studying. Paul gently brought me confidence to speak English and contributed to make my grammar stable. Besides all the given knowledge, I’ve always discovered lots of interesting conversations and thoughts from Paul! It was always a pleasure to talk with him, especially when we came up to the harder studying material.
