I am a native of New York City. I have a degree in Communication Arts and Sciences from the City University of New York and have taught English speaking, writing and presentation skills for over 35 years in New York, California and Hungary. I also have a degree in Acting and Theater from the University of California. I have over 60 shows to my credit and am a dialect coach to non-native English speaking actors.

My students are primarily business executives and staff who want to excel in their careers, but I also work with students who want to improve their English simply for the fun and pleasure of speaking more fluently. My students come from a variety of fields including IT, engineering, energy, finance, sales, science, government, theater and film industries, art, medicine and law.

If you are starting a job search and want to perform well in interviews I also specialize in English language job interview preparation.

I offer lessons in person (Gellérthegy) and via Skype, Facetime and Zoom

My lessons are relaxed and enjoyable and tailored to your specific needs.

If you are my student you will:

*Speak more fluently when using everyday and business English
*Gain confidence as you develop new ways to express yourself in any business or social situation
*Write with more clarity, expression and imagination
*Increase your vocabulary and improve your grammar
*Listen and understand with greater comprehension
*Perform better at your job when speaking to colleagues and clients

Please contact me with any questions and for my current fees and availability. Thank you!

BUSINESS ENGLISH

I can help you prepare for a presentation, improve your business writing and develop the speaking and comprehension skills you need to feel more confident in meetings and on conference calls. In today's global economy, English language fluency is critical to successful careers and business operations.

ENGLISH LANGUAGE INTERVIEW PREPARATION

Nothing is more important to your career than how you perform in a job interview. Be prepared! If you have an English language job interview scheduled I can help you organize your answers and walk into your interview feeling confident and secure in your abilities and presentation. Please see below for a more complete description of the Job Interview Preparation Intensive.

CONVERSATIONAL ENGLISH

Improving your English should be enjoyable so our conversations will be on a wide range of topics based on your interests, everyday tasks, current events, the arts, history, science and other subjects. Practicing English with these conversations will make you more comfortable with the sentence structures, idioms, collocations and slang used by Americans in everyday conversation.

TOEFL AND CAMBRIDGE EXAM PREPARATION

Preparation for these exams is crucial to your success. A top grade will significantly increase your chances to study and work in an English language environment.

ACCENT REDUCTION

If you wish to work on accent reduction I use techniques learned through my training as an actor to help you improve your pronunciation and diction and to speak clearly with confidence.

DIALOGUE COACH FOR ACTORS

More and more American and British film companies are shooting in Europe. I can help you prepare for an audition, film or television role that requires English proficiency or a specific American English accent, including regional accents such as Southern and New York accents and speech patterns. I've worked with some of Europe's top actors to prepare them for auditions. I can help you with pronunciation, intonation, and character and script analysis including American cultural subtexts.
