Hello!

Age 16+ please*** Hey guys! My name is Paxton but everyone calls me Pax. I'm from Texas but I now live in Guatemala with my wife, two children, and a mutt named Eponine. I'm a multi-instrumentalist and ex-studio musician who's played in orchestras, jazz bands, marching bands, polka bands, and SEVERAL little rock bands through the years. I love teaching English and learning about my students from all around the world. I'll bring a bubbly and energetic feeling to the classroom that will keep you both engaged and entertained while learning. I have been teaching English for a total of 9 years. ***CamblyKids is WAY better for your children than I am. Age 16+, please.

More about me... let's see... I grew up in a very small town in the middle of nowhere and very much still believe in "Southern Hospitality." I don't have too much of an accent, but I can put on a thicker Texas accent at the drop of a hat. My family is small but, since getting married, it's grown. My mom and sister still live in Texas, my mom is also a teacher and my sister does a little bit of everything from yoga to international finance.

Teaching Style

I'm a very casual person and my teaching reflects this. I'm adaptable and pride myself on being able to "go with the flow" while teaching. Everyone learns differently so it's important for me to be able to try different approaches and different methods for each and every student. I want these classes to be catered as much to each individual student as possible.
