Néhány szó rólam
2008-ban alapítottam a Kids English Club-ot, felismerve a szülőkben és diákokban megjelenő igényt a színvonalas angol magánoktatásra. Az évek során gyűjtött tapasztalat által elsőkézből ismertem meg a különböző korosztályok sajátos igényeit és azt, hogy hogyan érhetjük el a lehető legeredményesebb nyelvoktatást, a gyermekek pozitív és érdeklődő hozzáállást megőrizve.
Oktatóink lelkiismeretes hozzáállása, a gyerekekkel kialakított jó viszony, és az egyéni odafigyelés képzik oktatásunk alappillérét.
Mindig gondosan figyelve a csoport dinamikájára, csoprtonként testreszabott tematikát követünk, talán ezért is van, hogy sok tanítványunk 4-5 évet is eltölt nálunk, ami hatalmas öröm számomra. Célom, hogy levegyem a szülők válláról azt a terhet, amit a megfelelő nyelvoktatás kiválasztása jelent.
Ha szűlőként kérdése merülne fel gyermeke angol oktatásával kapcsolatban, nyugodtan keressen az orsolya.carrick@

Sommer Rita – Oktatásszervező
Kanadában végeztem a tanulmányaimat, talán ezért is szívügyem az angol nyelvtanulás. Mindig örömmel tölt el az új kis diákok jelentkezése a programjainkra, hiszen a mai világban szinte nélkülözhetetlen az erős angoltudás.
Szerencsés vagyok, hogy a kisfiam is a legjobb anyanyelvi tanároktól tanulhat, és hogy egy ilyen szuper csapat tagja lehetek.
Tanáraink
Allie Ross
I am an American expat living in Budapest after recently relocating from Brooklyn. I find great validation in teaching students English and watching their skills develop as they become more fluent. I believe that the most effective way to develop a student’s ability to communicate is done by building confidence.
I am passionate about experiencing and learning about new cultures, which teaching has allowed me to do.
In my spare time I enjoy traveling, reading, and binging podcasts.
Matthew Symonds
I’m Matthew and I have more than 13 years of teaching experience with a certified TESOL qualification and a Bachelor Degree in Applied Languages (My thesis was about how babies and young learners acquire a foreign language). In addition, I have lived in many places including Tokyo, London, Milan, Berlin and Budapest so I know how to be a bridge between different cultures!
Here are some reasons I may be a good fit for you:
My speciality is to make students start thinking in the target language through creative exercises and games and the IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) for neutralising and perfecting your accent! My lessons are communicative and they balance education with entertainment. Students will encounter pronunciation, grammar and syntax problems. I will give instant feedback and focus on the mistake and explain why it is wrong in order to allow him to identify the mistake in the future.
I’m looking forward to meeting you and I hope you will like my friendly teaching style and willingness to go the extra mile!
Natalie Gooden
I am a native English teacher from Ireland and I hold a bachelors in Education and an associate degree in counseling. I have spent the last six years teaching both children and adults in Ireland, Spain and Cambodia.
I aim to be that teacher- using creative, project based activities to help students learn and practice using English.
In addition, I believe that children should be taught how to think and not what to think and therefore, my classes are engaging, allowing each child the opportunity to learn the art of critical thinking in a fun, safe environment.
Karen Gately
I’m Karen, I’m an English teacher from Ireland. I gained my Cambridge teaching qualification back in 2015 but I am also a qualified speech and language therapist so I have been studying language and linguistic development for many years. I previously lived and worked in England, Spain and Australia, before moving to the beautiful Budapest. I’m a new addition to the Kids English Club team but I’m excited to get to know my students better and help encourage children to enjoy learning in a creative and fun environment. Looking forward to seeing you in my classroom!’
Stanton James
I am an American expat currently living in Szazhalombatta. I received my teacher’s certification in 2016 and I also have a degree in Psychology which helps me to relate and understand the students I teach. I have much passion about teaching students, in a way, I considerate it a karmic effect.
I’ve been teaching English for more than four years instructing students from ages 2 – 44 years. I enjoy both teaching in a classroom full of students and private tutoring. My aim is to build the confidence of my students through the use of wacky voices, fun games, and class participation.

My name is Francine, and I am a student and teacher from South Africa. I moved to Budapest in 2018 to pursue my studies in Computer Science Engineering. I am a Cambridge TKT certified English Teacher. I have taught English for over 9 years to students from all over the world. Through my years of experience, I have actively encouraged my students to gain confidence in their quest to learn and perfect their English skills. My students’ ages have ranged from 3 to 81 years old. I consider myself a fun-loving and energetic person, so I believe in making my lessons engaging, creative, and as entertaining as possible, as I have found that these ensure that any new information learned is better retained. My focus is to allow my students to practice, as I believe in the old saying goes ‘practice makes perfect’.
Kate Burns
I am a native English speaker from Santa Cruz, California. I moved to Budapest to pursue a master’s degree from the Central European University, which I finished in 2019. I am a great lover of language– I’ve lived and taught in Russia and Spain in addition to Hungary, and have studied the local languages everywhere I’ve been. I strive to keep my English classes fun and dynamic, moving at a pace where every student can keep up and feel proud of him/herself but no one gets bored!
