A bit about Paul

Specialist in positive teaching methods. I’ve helped thousands of students study English. I teach English and how to improve your own self belief so you can reach your highest potential. I specialise in all levels of English Education - GCSE and degree level. Warm up, discuss what we are going to cover in the lesson. 2 - way interaction. Get into the lesson. Concluding the class with feedback and what is coming up next time. I have been teaching English for the last 10 years - I have taught at middle school and University level. I love to help people develop their educational goals in English and this has a massive impact on others subjects. Communication is key to all areas of success in life i.e. business, relationships, university life etc. My teaching style is student centred - two way communication. There is no such thing as a silly question, I encourage the student to be open and honest with goals. The best thing about tutoring is helping students fulfil their potential and complete courses. I enjoy helping people from all kinds of backgrounds and ages My teaching philosophy is all students have potential and imagination is more important than knowledge. Students need to take ownership of their education and I encourage positive language to reinforce and increase self belief to reach targets. I like to use humour to teach English and encourage students to find happiness in studying. I create a relaxed, positive atmosphere to learn in. I encourage questions and students to take centre stage. I have helped students graduate university and find jobs. Doctorate of Philosophy in English - Kangwon National University. Masters Degree - Sociology and Sport - Brighton University BA Hons. Sports Studies - University of Chichester I found studying challenging and when I was young I didn’t receive good grades. I have failed exams and I learnt how to study well and achieve success in the education system. I wish to share my knowledge to help students achieve success. Outside of teaching I love to stay active. Healthy body = a healthy mind. I love tennis, surfing, snowboarding, football, and many other sports. I also enjoy writing as I am an author, I’m writing a book now. I teach GCSE, IELTS, EAP, and degree level English
