I couldn’t think of a better tutor/coach to recommend. Paul has been amazing with me and has all the patience in the world, even when you’ve asked him to go over the same thing time and time again.

He is knowledgeable, professional and makes you feel at ease even when you feel like you’re asking ridiculous questions. On top of that I am now able to go after the career I have always wanted and this is possible because of Paul’s help.

If you’re looking for a tutor or a coach, look no further, I recommend Paul 1000%.

I’ve been working with Paul for 3 weeks now and I know it’s not a long time but... my life was on a massive down fall, I’ve recently just broke up with my partner and Paul has been there for me and as much as I want her back Paul has assured me that he is going to do his best to help me out with things I got wrong in the relationship and to work on me, I know it’s only been 3 weeks but he really has helped me get through many difficult days and is putting in the time and effort to work on my troubles, I couldn’t praise Paul enough for what he has already done and his plans for my future. I will be keeping hold of Paul For eternity as life throws a lot of troubles and I’m now over the moon to now have someone like Paul who I can offload my troubles and someone that understands me, he’s a great councillor and couldn’t recommend him higher enough.

We asked Paul to deliver video content to support the University of Leicester's international student cohort with both their academic and career development journeys.

In these clips Paul provided concise, informed, practical, and very accessible insight and advice, guiding our students on how to make the successful transition to university level study and ultimately then through to degree success and graduate employment.

Delivered with great warmth, and drawing on his personal experiences and considerable expertise in this area, Paul exceeded our expectations and provided an exceptional resource for our students. We couldn't be happier - thank you Paul!

I have recently enrolled to start a course in Life Coaching. I needed help with an assessment.
Paul was extremely helpful and very knowledgeable within his field. I could tell from his response that he held a wealth of experience in his role as a Life coach.
I feel really fortunate to have the support of such a skillful, emphatic and concise coach.

My son did really really well with his GCSE maths and obtained a grade 7 and all thanks to Paul Opara. He is an excellent tutor who had a technique in explaining the work to my son but most importantly Paul believed in my son, he had faith in him and that gave him the confidence he needed to be motivated and with all the hard work my son actually moved up drastically from a low set to higher in just a matter of months! All the hard work certainly paid off. I would highly recommend Paul, he is excellent at his job and definitely delivers success. More...

Paul was an excellent tutor, my daughter really liked maths in the end and excelled and passed her exam. She was one of the top ones in her class. I would recommend him highly.

During our sessions together, I will share some strategies and technics that are unique to your situation. This will help you to rekindle your relationship and create more joy and happiness in your lives

During my session with you, I will share some strategies and technics that are unique to your situation to help you with a range of professional and personal issues. In some of our sessions, we are going to clarify your goals, identify the obstacles holding you back. We are going to explore and come up with strategies for overcoming each obstacle. For example, help with emotional issues, working on yourself to realise your goals and dreams, develop willpower and self-discipline, strike a good work/life balance, working toward unlocking your full potential
and bridging the gap in learning life skills.

Family dynamics in the 21st century has changed significantly. Each family is unique and has its own beliefs and values and differences of opinions about a wide range of issues. Factors in our lives can affect our family relationships like Birth, death, marriage, divorce, and many other types of transitions that families go through together.
These changes within the family can make some members confused, frustrated, angry, or hurt. Personal problems can overwhelm a family in different ways, and sometimes it feels like there is no clear way forward.

Perhaps you’re a parent worried about your child's behaviour or how a divorce may impact your family. You might be part of a stepfamily and need help adjusting, or you may be arguing with parents or siblings and need support communicating with each other.

During our sessions together, I will share some strategies that are unique to your family situation that will help you have a loving and happy relationship with all members of your family.

Some of the sessions coved with my clients includes; disruption as a result of separation or divorce, problems with stepfamily life, or when a new partner moving in, money problems such as debt or redundancy, changes in family structure, as the result of a bereavement or illness, problem behaviour with adolescents or older children, how to support your child education in the 21st century to help them with SATs, GCSE, A-levels, College, Apprenticeship, University and progressing to getting a job, children leaving home and unwanted pregnancy.

Giving your child or grown-up children the skills they need to succeed in the 21st century begins with a sound education. I will provide your child with unique and tailored edutainment strategies that will help them to be successful. This will involve a blended learning approach to enhance their online activities and make it more personalized so they can enjoy studying. This will help them to overcome barriers in learning, help to reduce & manage anxiety, revision techniques, help with homework, improve exams and test results, improve their mindset and help to create success habits in the future.
