Hello! My name is Paul and I've lived in Jacksonville, Florida for fourteen and a half years. I am married and have three children.
Through the New York State Education Department, I have obtained permanent certification in both elementary education and reading with a Master's degree in education from the State University of New York.
In addition, I have over ten years teaching experience, including classroom experience in public and private schools, teaching English in the country of China, and volunteer tutoring in English. Currently, I am an adjunct ESL instructor at Florida Community College at Jacksonville. When teaching, I prefer to guide students and converse naturally with them, rather than lecture.
For my hobbies, I enjoy simple things such as walking, swimming, and biking. I have some interest in computers, art, and music.
