I am a very successful learner of both English, and Chinese and I am a professional Chinese teacher. I earned my Master of Arts in Teaching Chinese in Taiwan, and I have been providing online private lessons for years now. My lessons are highly personalized, mostly communication-centered. I can teach both Simplified and Classical characters and I'm also familiar with the culture. With my almost decade-long experience living, working and studying in Chinese-speaking environments, I am happy to share what I've learned about functioning as a foreigner. I am very passionate about language learning and my goal is to pass this passion on to my students and help them to achieve their goals. Currently I'm a full-time Mandarin teacher at an independent school in Manhattan, but I really enjoy teaching adults, so I take private students as well.

I believe that learning a foreign language is much more than using different-sounding words to express our thoughts - it means learning a different way of thinking that allows us to explore new aspects of ourselves and the world. As a teacher my mission is to help others with this exploration by utilizing my two decades of experience and the latest achievements of foreign language teaching.
Please don't hesitate to send me a message or ask any questions! I'm excited to show you that learning Chinese is actually fun :)

Chinese

I have an MA degree in Chinese Studies from ELTE University, Hungary (graduated in 2004) and another MA in Teaching Chinese as a Second Language from National Taiwan Normal University (2012). I have been tutoring and teaching for years, and I have experience with students from various background and of different ages and levels. Currently I have a day job as a Chinese teacher in a small independent school in New York City, and I also teach at a weekend Chinese school, where most of the students are heritage speakers.
Hungarian

Hungarian

I am a native speaker of Hungarian, I was born in Hungary and lived there for more than twenty years. I am a foreign language teacher with extensive training in second language acquisition, and as a lifelong learner myself, I have the ability to really understand my students' experience and effectively help them reaching their learning goals.

collaborate, interactive and kind

Eszter teaches real-world interactions to make the learning experience interesting and enjoyable. Rather than rely on a static text with rote repetition, she engages in a collaborative process that guides the student to a greater understanding o the material. I highly recommend speaking with Eszter if you are considering engaging with a tutor for this very intimidating language.

Patient with students

She listens and corrects my daughter's reading in hungarian. They have a good time together translating hungarian phrase s to enish, which can be funny sometimes.

Tunde, 5 lessons with Eszter

excellent instructor!

Another great lesson with Eszter covering many basics like greetings, numbers, days of the week. After the lesson she sends a recording of everything we covered which helps with improving pronunciation. We covered a lot of material! All really helpful.

Randall, 5 lessons with Eszter

Excellent teacher,

Eszter does not just speak Hungarian. She knows how to teach it. This makes a big difference to me, since I really need to know more than "Hungarian for the tourist."

Bryant, 15 lessons with Eszter

Great tutor

She helped me understand better than my professor so I am very pleased with that. She was very patient as well which is a bonus. Overall a great tutor who I would definitely recommend.

Chirag , 1 lesson with Eszter

Great Hungarian teacher!

I never thought learning Hungarian would be so easy, and so much fun! Only our third lesson and already I'm able to form complex sentences.

Ed, 7 lessons with Eszter

Extremely Helpful

Eszter provided my daughter with some extremely helpful tips during her first lesson. I can't wait for her to continue.
