Paul Nene
Hello, I'm Paul. I'm a former Apple Technical Advisor and IT Service Desk Analyst, now a video editor and entrepreneur. I have a passion for simplifying learning and helping others succeed in achieving their goals through online courses.
Apple Technical Advisor and IT Service Desk Analyst for 8 Years
When I was in 3rd year college, I decided to work at a call center. I tried many times to get a job, but 20 companies rejected my application because I wasn't fluent at speaking English and I have no work experience. But I didn't give up. With the help of my girlfriend, who is now my wife, I trained myself to speak in English. After 6 months, I got my 1st job. I started low and worked my way up to a higher position in Technical Support. One year later, I got another job as an Apple Technical Advisor, where I used to help people with Apple products like Mac computers and iPhones. During that time, I was recognized as a top performer and won brand new iPads three times in a row. After 2 years, I finally landed my dream job as an IT Service Desk Analyst at a major international bank, where I resolved software and computer-related issues with a focus on delivering an excellent user experience.
10 Years of Videography and Video Editing Experience
It all began as a hobby, filming vacation videos using my phone. I didn't go to film school, but with a strong passion for videography, I watched tons of videos and enrolled in online courses, teaching myself everything about proper video shooting and professional editing. Then, I invested in a DSLR. Our family and friends noticed the potential in our video skills and encouraged us to offer video services. After gaining years of experience, my wife and I launched a videography business, specializing in capturing moments at events like weddings and birthdays. I also honed my skills using Adobe Premiere Pro to enhance video quality. Throughout this journey, I received multiple recognitions and earned an eagle award in a video editing.
From 9-5 Job to Entrepreneurs
For a long time, I really wanted to be a businessman, but lack of funds and uncertainty about where to begin held me back. So, when I got a steady job, I started studying and learning from hundreds of books about entrepreneurs and personal development. Even though I faced many challenges, I didn't give up. With careful plans and the courage to leave our jobs, my wife and I tried again and finally achieved our goal. My wife and I successfully transitioned from working regular 9-5 jobs to becoming entrepreneurs. Now, we run our own e-learning business, generating passive income through online courses. This freedom lets us pursue our passions and do what we love.
Simplicity in Learning
I love being a student, but sometimes I struggle to understand complex ideas. That's why I know how important it is to explain things in a simple way. So, I focus on that when teaching. I want to simplify complex ideas to help you better understand and achieve your goals. I've helped over 63,500+ students from 182 countries all around the world learn video editing using Adobe Premiere Pro.
How to Master Any Subject
My teaching approach involves breaking down a subject into manageable and actionable steps, helping learners understand and apply specific skills or knowledge, and guiding them to reach a high level of proficiency. I emphasize detailed, step-by-step guidance and encouraging a deep understanding of the subject matter.

Hobbies
I enjoy spending time talking with my wife, reading success books, shopping online, playing chess, doing hydroponic gardening, studying AI technology, listening to music, and teaching my son.
A Fun Fact:
After studying a book by Glenn Doman about right brain education, we began teaching our baby to read when he was only 3 months old. And you know what's amazing? By the time he turned 18 months old, he could read and say many sight words all by himself.
Let's enjoy learning and achieve success together.
