Information About Katalin - Cambridge teacher

Personal Description:

I offer tutoring in English as a Foreign Language and in German to A Level. As a postdoctoral researcher of early modern history, I can help students and researchers to improve their skills to read old handwritten or printed texts in German. I am a native speaker of Hungarian and I can teach it as a Foreign Language as well.
I have nearly twenty years of experience working with children, teenagers, and young adults thanks to my studies and volunteering experiences. My lessons are tailored to the skills and unique needs of the tutees and I love to use my creativity to make learning an enjoyable and personalized experience.

Teaching Experience:

German, Hungarian, and English as a Foreign Language

I have two decades of experience in formal, non-formal, and informal education. I have worked with various age groups and taught Languages and History in a great variety of settings, including schools, museums, heritage sites, university courses, and extracurricular activities organized by NGOs.

German Palaeography

I am happy to offer tutoring in German as a foreign language and in German palaeography as well. This means that I can support my students to learn how to read handwritten German texts, with a focus on the period between the 16th to the early 20th century. Thanks to various fellowships, I lived in Germany and Austria for two years during my doctoral studies and I use German in my everyday work as a researcher to read academic texts and historical sources.

Teaching Approach:

I am highly interested in gamification and I creatively use digital resources, and a great variety of teaching methods to make language learning an empowering and fun experience for my tutees.
