    About Me

    English language proofreading/copy editing and/or learning/assistance with a native speaker!Are you tired of not relevant translations, your ‘marketing message’ not hitting the audience? Are you tired of learning grammar? Are you tired of reading/learning material not relevant to your “real requirements”? Do you just wish to be able to communicate better or make a better presentation or hold a more productive meeting? Do you want to reach a ‘wider’ audience with your products/services? Do you want vocabulary over grammar?

    I am a linguist – native English, German as a second ‘mother tongue’, intermediate French and basic Hungarian. I love languages – why? Language is communication and communication is key to living our daily lives, be it work, social etc.

    I am a mature English native speaker born in Africa of English parents. Apparently by age 7, I spoke the main native language, English and other local dialects. I communicated and often, apparently, translated for my parents. In School and University, I followed this path. Languages brought me the opportunity to, work in, and travel to so many places that it has been my joy throughout my life.

    I grew up with a love of languages, dialects etc. At age 10, I was learning Latin and French, later German. I hate ‘linguistics’ – the root and grammar of a language necessary to pass exams and be told you are proficient or fluent. I have lived and worked in the UK, USA, Austria, Germany and Hungary – often living off ‘English Communication’. Is that enough? I say no and have immersed myself in trying to communicate on my own with locals. My studies helped with German but it was the 12+ years living in either Germany or Austria and ‘opening’ my mouth that brought me the fluency – not the text books!

    I am a mature ‘English Gentleman’, currently living in Hungary. I have 35+ years of business/finance experience from my career in Banking, where communication was the key to success. I am internationally well travelled where your best experiences/successes are gained through ‘communication’. I have also served on various Supervisory Boards in Germany, Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria where communication and understanding were paramount. Through this experience I certainly believe that I can put any of your ‘english communications’ into the relevant tone and language.
    My own experience of learning languages has involved both formal and informal learning. My Hungarian has improved rapidly in the last 8 years, mainly because I have a young daughter who is bilingual (English/Hungarian).

    I offer programmes of ‘communication/conversation’ and/or ‘teaching’ to any individual/company that is looking to move their language skills beyond learning ‘where the nearest train station is’ and being able to ask that in a grammatically correct manner. Do you wish to ‘communicate’? – if so I offer ‘tailor made’ programmes of conversation and communication based on a 30 minute ‘free’ conversation to understand your requirements/speciality where improvement in English speaking is sought.

    I live in Budaors, so this locale and Budapest do not create ‘logistical issues’ in terms of teaching/conversation events. Beyond these boundaries, modern technology/communication applications make programmes easy via a range of social media.

    Beside one-to-one or group programmes in conversation or communication, I also offer assistance in the preparation of the following issues,
    • Blogs in English
    • Presentations and presentation skills coaching
    • Board Papers
    • Formal Correspondence
    • Marketing Communications
    • Websites
    • Public information – particularly a company’s annual report
    • Investor Information
    • Email/social media communication
    • CVs
    • Motivation Letters
    • EU Submissions for finance/funding
    Internal Corporate Communication

    During the past few years I have had a wide variety of ‘students’ varying in age. With this has come an incredibly wide range of subjects to research, prepare for sessions and then discuss with the students. I have had the pleasure of working with ‘students’ from age 8 to 55 and have covered CVs; motivation letters; interview preparation for differing jobs being sought; purchasing management; sales management; coaching a top Hungarian doctor in the preparation of an international presentation on a complex procedure in laparoscopic surgery; data protection; conspiracy theories; Swiss banks and Nazi gold; fairy tales; South Korean pop music; fashion through the ages; murder mysteries; green innovation; COVID19 and its impacts; eight original websites translated to English were ‘reworked’; two submissions to Brussels (translated to English) for EU funds were copy edited ; an original Russian language ‘brochure’ translated to English for a Bitcoin product was also copy edited and many more.

    During this period, I have also used Netflix, YouTube; Podcasts and other material to encourage active participation in session discussion. I have personally learned a lot more than I knew about many topics which has also been very exciting. We have watched David Attenborough programmes; other nature series; Forensic Files; documentary films on social media etc.

    Obviously COVID19 also had its impact and during lockdown periods I moved to Zoom sessions or other social media, with one corporate client we had ‘hybrid’ sessions where group members connected via Zoom or Facebook to group sessions being held at the office while they were on holiday.

    Education

    University of Warwick - BA German studies. 4 year course based on German Literature, History, Sociology and Politics. Involved a one year stay as either a student or assistant teacher in a German speaking country - I chose Austria.

    Experience / Qualifications

    35 year career in the Banking/Finance Industry, during which I had two expatriate assignments of 5+ years - one in Frankfurt and one in Munich

    English conversation classes for adults and teens by an American living in Ireland
    This English conversation and grammar course is designed for adults and teenagers. My main goal is to help you progress in this language at your own pace. Whether it is to acquire the basics of English, improve your language skills with a view to traveling, moving to an English-speaking country, or for your professional development, I adapt to your specific needs and objectives. I am bilingual in English and French, with Irish-American heritage, and have dedicated the last twenty years to providing academic support, whether for children aged 4 and up or seniors over 85 years ! It's never too late to improve your language skills. As an experienced entrepreneur for many years, I also have training in education and socio-cultural activities. My educational approach is based on adaptability and personalization, in order to offer you an optimal learning experience. Please feel free to contact me to discuss your language needs and specific goals. I look forward to helping you achieve your English aspirations!

    Kevin
    Polyglot specialist with 9 years of experience. German in speed mode. Level A1 to C2. No school teaching.
    I offer you a German course that is not like the others. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you travel back and forth by train every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Memorise the timetable. 2) Realise that the train comes every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in textbooks and in normal lessons, the first approach is used - in the course I am offering you, it is the second approach because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both pupils and adults who want to learn the German language without time-consuming detours through the madness of fruitless school methods. Learning is easy, but unlearning things that have become bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, with my customised lessons you will greatly accelerate the learning process while having a positive attitude. I offer German lessons for individuals or groups (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive science and historical linguistics in particular. My modular programme can be adapted on a case-by-case basis. The converging point of these modules is your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life. What will not be covered in the course: learning lists of verbs; learning lists of nouns with articles; learning words with their translations; flashcards; doing school exercises; following the syllabus of a booklet; imposing the English grammar on the German language. What is particularly important to me: to motivate my student and to give him a learning rhythm; to encourage his creativity; to befriend him with the language; the letters and their sounds; to strengthen the memory by training the phonological loop; to teach blueprints instead of memorising sentences; to explain how the language works in order to make my student independent as quickly as possible; to eliminate common preconceptions, such as that 'der' would mean masculine and 'die' feminine, that the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, that verbs would be irregular, that declension would be random and therefore would have to be learnt with each verb...; to put practice at the centre and only deal with grammar where necessary. A first lesson will give you a sound idea of my pedagogy.

    English learning or improvement courses
    English, beyond being the international language of business, is the most widely spoken language in the world. It is a language that brings together diverse people, from different backgrounds, cultures, and languages, enabling communication between these different parties—a crucial element in various contexts, whether traveling or at work. Moreover, today, for many recruiters, speaking English is not a bonus but almost a necessity. During the classes I give, I will not only focus on grammatical mastery of the language, but we will also work on the pronunciation and phonetics of this language. I will also suggest that we read aloud together different texts from different sources (novels, newspaper articles, etc.) allowing us to add a cultural and intellectual aspect to our language learning.
