À propos de moi

Sujets d'intérêtNourriture
Hello everybody!
I was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland but moved to England when I was 18 years old. My first career was in finance and I worked for HSBC in London for over five years.
By the end of that period, I felt I wanted a change of career and so went travelling around the world for one year. At the end of that year, I had decided teaching English was for me. See "Me as a Teacher" for more details!
My hobbies?
I still love travelling and have continued to do so every year. Running is my sport and I try manage at least three half=marathons per year.
Reading, especially historical fiction, is also a very dear hobby of mine
Moi en tant que professeur
I have been teaching English since 1999 and shortly after obtained my CELTA (Cambridge English Language Teaching Accreditation) teaching qualification. I have taught in five different countries= the UK, Spain, Hungary, Vietnam and Malaysia; presently I am living in Budapest, Hungary.
My motivation for teaching?
There are two reasons why I enjoy teaching; firstly, the feeling of satisfaction when you have helped someone pass an examination, be successful in their career, a job interview or even learn a difficult piece of grammar. Secondly; I love the English language! I love thinking about it and considering the best way to teach it.
Mes leçons et ma méthode d'enseignement
The student is the most important person, all of my lessons suit their personality, their knowledge and their style.
I use the first lesson to find out their strengths, development areas and their personal motivation for learning English.
We draw up a plan to help them achieve their goals in as quick and in as efficient a way as possible.
I need to be and am flexible. I am a native English speaker and teacher, I presently live in a country where English is not the first language spoken so I know exactly the problems in learning a foreign language but what do iI-expect from my students?
Simply they must want to learn English!
*Please note that I do not teach children under the age of 18*

Paul isn't only a exceptional teacher. As Benjamin Franklin once said, “Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.”
Thank you for the lesson, I enjoyed every minute.

I just started following lessons for my CAE exam and I really enjoy it! Paul is well prepared, professional and a great conversational partner. He's patient and kind which makes him a good teacher. Thanks for everything Paul, I look forward to next week!

"The city of the future may look a lot like the city of the past, just cleaner: bicycles, farms and 18th-century-style homeworking rather than flying cars."
It was nice to talk and get new words.
