Paul Evarrs is an English teacher and translator living in the suburbs of Milan. He teaches working professionals “in azienda” as well as private students at his home based studio. Students ranging in age from 8 to 80 years old have studied English with him. Depending on the type of client and their needs, the lesson plan is structured to meet specific requirements. “In azienda” clients usually request business English but also general conversational skills for social situations with their customers. Private students look to improve their English for traveling or to improve at school.

Previous to this experience he worked at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange for 9 years, dealing in S&P 500 futures as a pit trader.

An American born in Minneapolis, with a 4 year stop in St. Louis, he then settled in the Chicago suburbs at the age of 14.
