About Me
italki teacher since Sep 14, 2022
Szia, Erik vagyok!
I was born in Hungary, and I currently live in Paris, where I am working on my PhD. I am a major geek, I love science, cartoons, and comics, I like drawing and I can be quite passionate about languages too :)
I am always happy to meet new and interesting people, so I'd love to get to know you too -- afterall it's not every day that I come across people learning Hungarian!
Me as a Teacher
I started teaching about 2 years ago, first Algebra at college, later English for high school students. My experience with the latter (and I bet Stephen Krashen would agree -- he's great, do read up on him!) is that the most essential aspect of learning a language is to build a healthy relationship with it. In this spirit, albeit my nerdy side insists on explaining and understanding basic grammar, but I hate stressing over insignificant mistakes or boring exercises. What I find important instead is to collect texts, videos and excercises that are -- most importantly -- fun for my students. As long as learning feels like free time, acquiring a language will be a piece of cake!
My lessons & teaching style
I am very felxible and will adapt to your needs.
We can focus on grammar, or follow your favorite textbook (especially if you're a beginner); but for people struggling on the "intermediate plateau", personally I'd recommend agreeing on a video, a TV show or an article that tickles your fancy for each class, and just talk about it as deeply as we can. I will prepare material for the class in advance, let it be exotic grammar, vocab or just fun expressions that show up in your chosen medium.
A little heads up -- I am the first to admit if I am not sure about something, but I promise I will always find the answer for you for the next class, no matter how complex your question might be.

Erik understood what I wanted and adapted the lesson to my needs. He's very fun and nice to talk to and I felt comfortable speaking Hungarian with him. I definitely recommend him!
