About me
Hi! My name is Paul. I'm from the U.S. and I have been teaching English in France for 39 years. I love English and languages in general, and really enjoy helping people overcome their fears of the language or working through blockages by giving them the confidence that they have deep inside them.
In my spare time, I enjoy travel, classical music, and cooking. How about if we start learning together?
Message
I have a B.A. in Combined Foreign Languages from a small, liberal arts college in the U.S. and the education that I gained there helps me every day of my life. How? Because my professors taught their students to THINK and QUESTION.  Lifelong learning isn't just a catchphrase - it can be real and entertaining!
I also have a long experience in prepping students for the TOEFL, TOEIC and GMAT Verbal tests, and am an author of three published methods, of which one on TOEFL IBT and one on the Verbal and AWA papers of the GMAT test.
In terms of English teaching, my expertise is in general language, business English, the English of transportation and linguistics, as well as culinary and cuisine areas.
