1. American literature (including native American literature).
2. British literature (including Welsh and Scottish literature).
3. Selected areas of literature in English from Canada, Australia, India and South Africa.

About Me
I am an adventurer and a bookworm so my interest in foreign languages came naturally. I lead an active life as a sailor and climber but I also enjoy spending time at home with books, films and music. My interest in psychology is satisfied in my job as all students are different and demand individual care. All in all, teaching is a perfect combination of working, learning and having fun because it opens up so many opportunities both for teacher and student.Education
I am currently a PhD student and I specialize in linguistics. I hold B.A. in Business English and M.A. in British and American Culture and Literature as well as a certificate of completion of an intensive translation course.Experience / Qualifications
I worked at University of Silesia for 4 years teaching students, attending conferences and organizing events. I also held a position of an English Language Coach and Translator for 8 years in several companies.Reviews (1)
Paul is a professional with a high standaards and a deep understanding for the english language. He makes sure that the lessons are tailored to your needs and that you make progress. He has a comforting way of teaching, since practicing a foreign language can be a bit scary.
I specialize in tutoring English for university students and staff working in various industries. I use numerous methods and didactic materials depending on particular students and their goals. You can choose if you would like to speak American or British English.
Linguistics is fun and useful for students as well as professionals, schoolchildren and anyone who is interested in languages. Linguistics can be a real eye-opener and a hobby for life.
The branches of linguistics I teach include:
1. Translation theory.
2. Pragmatics.
3. Dialectology.
4. Morphology.
5. Phonetics.
6. Syntactics/grammar.
7. Psycholinguistics.
8. Historical linguistics.
9. Geographical linguistics.
10. Sociolinguistics.
Writing is an expression of our thoughts and emotions as well as a representation of our self. The texts we create very often shape our future and can lead to good grades at school or university, profitable business relations or even awards and fame for a successful story or poem.
I provide help at all stages of the writing process:
1. Preparation.
2. Drafting.
3. Writing.
4. Revising.
5. Proofreading.

Online French language tutoring in a creative way and proficiency (for all levels)I tutor French language for learners interested in improving their pronunciation, grammar, reading, writing, and preparation for international exams, I'm willing to help you become fluent in daily life conversations simply and creatively with no complications and a sense of humour sometimes.
My method will take you step by step to meet your goal! I am dynamic, easy-going and full of energy!
All materials will be provided to you by email.
Lessons are well organized
I can suggest a weekly task
In addition, I can support with translation and proofreading.

French private lessons by university graduate in LettersHolder of a Master's degree in Letters and endowed with a solid experience in private lessons, I provide French lessons for students wishing to:
- consolidate their bases in grammar, spelling
- improve their language skills (allophone students)
- improve their speaking skills (conversation classes)
-profect the written expression
- prepare for ECR exams
- prepare for the written examinations at the end of the studies (maturity, certificate of completion)
- help with the writing of works of maturity (or other works of end of studies), of dissertation
- work on argumentative texts
- acquire a method to analyze literary texts
- learn how to perform bibliographic research
The course material is a Google Docs document that I create in which my explanations, possible links, exercises appear. By reading it regularly, progress will be faster. It can also be used in addition to other documents (files printed by school teachers and/or books) and has many advantages: automatic updating, downloadable on tablets and smartphones, simultaneous monitoring of what is writing.
For help with writing:
The objective is above all to acquire effective tools. The student will thus be able to learn to structure his ideas, argue coherently (and convincingly) and enrich his vocabulary. It is essential for me to have written work from the student between each lesson.
For analyzes of oral literary texts:
In order to optimize the time available (and to put ourselves in conditions closest to oral exams), we choose together an extract from a work that the student will have previously prepared before the lesson. This would take around 20 minutes at most, and ideally just a little before the meeting time. If necessary, I have the habit of taking a paragraph at random which would serve as a basis for analyzing a passage.
For the corrections of end of studies work:
so that the meeting with the student is at the most profitable, I ask him to send me his writings before the meeting.
Apart from my presence with the student, any course involves a preparation time before and after the lesson, including the work that I correct. My goal is to design an individualized course, so I take the time to write detailed comments on corrected work or tips to ensure maximum success for everyone.
For example, an editorial correction can easily be the subject of a detailed commentary of 4 typewritten pages.
For adults (FLE):
In order to optimally prepare the first ones, I take the initiative to inform myself in advance of their objectives / expectations. Whether to practice speaking in everyday life, the professional world or to practice oral presentations, I prepare either PPT or technical sheets in advance that I send by mail ( after booking on the website).
The other alternative is to make a PV of the course that I send (or that I print). Giving importance to keeping a written record on the one hand to better memorize the topics covered, on the other hand to better assimilate the spelling.
Of a general nature, a concrete situation that responds to the learner's needs is the starting point. From this situation, I address the essential grammatical points.

Valencian reinforcement for high school and EvAU studentsThrough these classes, you will not only considerably improve your grades (we all know how frustrating and maddening it can be to pass Valencian), but you will also learn to value the language and acquire a competent level.
These lessons are dedicated to all those students of Baccalaureate (both first and second year) who want to improve in this subject, as well as to those who have already decided to take the EvAU exam. We will focus in depth on all those aspects that need more attention from the student: oral comprehension and expression, written comprehension and expression, grammar and syntax, spelling, vocabulary and arrogance and literature (using a personalized, dynamic and enjoyable methodology and approach). Likewise, we will try to improve all those study and learning techniques and tools that we have at our disposal in order to achieve good results in a short time.
EvAU students will also receive constant support and feedback when completing each section of the exam in the most optimal way possible.
Let's work together to get the 10!

It may be confusing at first but if you dedicate the time to study it you will start communicating with natives here in no time, plus Tunisians are very kind so you will have no problem starting a conversation with a total stranger. Just message me if you are interested in learning the Tunisian dialect and let's get your journey started.
