Meet Paula
Tomasz, Poland
“Paula is very competent as both a lawyer and a linguist. Her broad experience in both fields is invaluable in a teaching/learning process... She puts a lot of effort to figure out a way to properly describe specific problems from your country's legal system in English which is both crucial in most lawyers work and very hard to do."
Delia, U.S.A.
"Learning from Paula has been an empowering experience. She's been so supportive and motivating that I feel comfortable practicing tough business conversations, thinking on my feet, while focusing on pronunciation, vocabulary, and grammar. ... Her mentorship inspires me to be a better manager... the value of her lessons far exceeds her price…."
Rimma, Spain
“Lessons with Paula are so interesting, exciting, useful, various. Really recommend this Teacher for learning and improving your English!.”
