I have three children and I teach them English by talking to them in this language.
I have done my PhD at the University of Szeged and ready for the defense of my doctoral dissertation.
I love teaching English as a foreign language, goiung to museums and to the cinema with my wife.
Most of all, I love travelling around the world.
