I had never played black jack before when I sat down at Elan’s table. She made this newbie feel right at home with her warmth and humour. She is so patient and friendly and I had a great time learning how to play with her. It’s clear that Elan has a wealth of knowledge and she imparts that knowledge in such a fun and welcoming way! You never feel intimidated asking a question or clarification.

Elan Paulson is a trusted friend and previous colleague who I have known for more than a decade. She has always impressed me with her teaching skills, creativity and her ability to connect with people. She is now using her talents to teach folks to play blackjack...reimagined with no financial risk and played in a relaxed setting. At a recent weekend gathering of our book club the ladies got to experience the fun and camaraderie of playing this classic game. Elan's instruction seemed effortless, her talent as a professional dealer, unquestionable, and her enthusiasm was infectious. Without having the financial risk the game took on a new dimension. We were collectively cheering and groaning our wins and losses. A good time for all and highly recommended for any gathering or function! B Hammoud

Elan made our experience learning blackjack fun, entertaining, and easy! We had such a great time with Elan, and who knew we were playing blackjack wrong all this time?! I can't wait to play at Elan's table again soon.

I have known Elan for years, having met through mutual friends and shared sports activities.
Throughout our friendship, I have observed Elan's exceptional conscientiousness and dedication to teaching.
Elan is focused on understanding each individual's goals and objectives, and then personalizing lessons to help them succeed.
Classes are conducted in a consistently positive, organized, and supportive way. This creates an optimal learning environment.
I have also spent many evenings playing at Elan’s table and enjoyed each one.
Based on this long-standing friendship, I offer my highest recommendation

I recommend Elan as a tutor if you’re looking to learn or get better at black jack. As a dealer she knows the game inside and out, explaining things in a way that actually makes sense.
What sets Elan apart is her patience and ability to teach according to each person’s needs. She creates a supportive environment, building confidence in your black jack skills.
If you want someone who’s knowledgeable, easy to work with and makes the game enjoyable to learn, Elan is your tutor.
