About Me
Hi, everyone!
My name is Norbert and I am a Hungarian-American living in Toyama, Japan. I am a part-time English teacher at a university in the mornings, and in the afternoons I teach Business and Conversational English to business clients and private individuals, just like yourself. I love teaching, and I would love to also help you to reach your study goals.
(more about me below...)
my online lessons focus on three areas:
1. General English Conversation
If you want to become a better English speaker, want to have more confidence or fluency, or want to increase your communication skills, then I can teach you how. We can go through a systematic conversational course, or focus on specific areas and topics you want to - for example My Life, My Hobbies, Travel, or Cultures.
2. Business English
Either (1) a comprehensive Business Communication course covering communication in all major areas of business life, or (2) a specific area you want to work on like email communication, meetings, or presentation skills. You can bring your own project or topics as well. I have worked in non-profit management for 16 years in the US so you can utilize my extensive experience in that field as well.
3. Special Topics: Current News, Economics, and Politics
I have a lot of prepared lessons and news sources I use to help you learn about and discuss topics in these areas. I love studying economics and politics. I am also just generally crazy about current news. I have also lived and worked in three different continents and cultures so you can use my experiences in those areas as well.
My Teaching Style: Natural Communication, No Boring Textbooks
Based on my experiences I focus on natural communication in my lessons and I use stories, news, and real-life topics and examples. I never use boring textbooks or teach you boring grammar. My teaching style is very relaxed and focus on teaching you practical, useful, and real conversational English, just like the way you have learned your own native language. The learning is natural; you won't even notice you're studying.
- Natural Communication: stories, news, real-life topics and examples
- NO boring textbooks or grammar
- Relaxed, casual, friendly atmosphere
- Practical, "contextual", whole learning
- You learn naturally, just like your own language
Tools
I also use many different tools that support your learning, make it more effective and more fun.
For example:
- audio and video that you can download to your smartphone and listen or watch any time;
- online lesson materials you can access at any time;
- fun quizzes, games and mini-tests to strengthen your knowledge through spaced repetition;
- and if you want to study Business English with me then I can give you projects you can work on, news sources you can read, or podcasts you can listen to.
- I can also teach you different techniques that help you to study effectively.
About My Lessons
I focus on helping you to become a better speaker, to be able to communicate about any topics naturally just like a native speaker. In this process, I will help you to naturally:
Increase Your Confidence
Increase Your Fluency
Increase Your Communication Skills

What My Students Are Saying:
"ﾉｰﾊﾞｰﾄさんは日本の文化を良く理解されており､英語の勉強を進める上で語学に限らず日本と海外の文化や慣習の違い等を知る良い機会になりました。また個々のﾚﾍﾞﾙに沿った個別ﾚｯｽﾝの為､ｸﾞﾙｰﾌﾟとは異なり焦る事なく自分のﾍﾟｰｽでﾚｯｽﾝに参加する事ができました。"
'Mr. Norbert has a good understanding of Japanese culture, and it was a good opportunity to learn about the differences not only in languages but in culture and customs between Japan and other countries. Also, because the one-on-one lessons had different levels, I was able to participate in the lessons at my own pace without being impatient, unlike in a group. '

"1, 学校の退屈な授業とは違い、会話の中で生きた英語を使いながら楽しんで英語を学べたことです。嫌々やる学習とは段違いです。
2, Norbertさんも僕と同じように、ネイティブ・スピーカーではありません。かつては今の僕のように英語を勉強されていました。ですから、最初から英語を話せた人々とは違った話を聞くことができ、大変参考になりました。"
'1, Unlike the boring lessons at school, I enjoyed learning English while using live English in conversation. It's different from the school-style learning that I don't like.
2, Norbert, like me, is not a native speaker. He used to study English like I do now. Therefore, I was able to hear stories different from those who could speak English from the beginning, which was very helpful. '
Alexey from Kosugi //
High School Student
"レッスン内容は「今やりたい事、必要な事」に柔軟に対応してくれます。
会話やクイズ、reading、 listeningを織り交ぜて自分のスタイルで学べることが気に入っています。ひとつの単語から関連する表現を教えてくれたり、教科書からは学べない、言葉が持つリアルなニュアンスも細かく教えてくれてすぐに役立ちます。
学習に役立つ提案を多くしてくれるので、飽きることなくまた自分に合ったものを探せます。"
"The lesson content was flexibly adjusted to 'what you want to do now, what you need'.
I like learning in my own style by interweaving conversations, quizzes, reading and listening. [Norbert's] lesson will be useful immediately because he will teach you many related expressions from one word, and will also teach you the real nuances of words that you can not learn from textbooks.
He will give you many suggestions to help you learn, so you can find the one that suits you without getting bored. "

"ノーバートさんの授業についてですが、わたくしのヒアリングとスピーキングに力を入れて欲しいという要望通り、授業では主にディスカッション形式で進めていただき、英語講師の生の英語に接することができて、とても良かったと思います。また、ノーバートさんは、話すスピードやワードの強弱もわたくしのレベルを考慮していただいて、ゆっくりはっきりした英語でとても。
聞きやすく、英語に慣れることができたと思います。
また、間違った時も面倒くさがらずにちゃんと指摘してくれるところが"良かったです。"
"Regarding Mr. Norbert's class, as I requested that we focus on listening and speaking, I was very happy that the class was mainly conducted in a discussion format and I was able to come into contact with the raw, natural English of the English teacher. In addition, Mr. Norbert's English was very slow and clear, taking my level of speaking speed and vocabulary into consideration.
It was easy to listen, and I think I was able to get used to English.
Also, it was good that he pointed out my mistakes properly without making me feel uncomfortable."

My Story: From Very Bad English Speaker To English Teacher
I was born and grew up in Hungary so my native language is Hungarian. That's right; I am actually not a native English speaker. As a matter of fact, I was actually very bad at English while I was in Hungary as I just couldn't learn it from books and in regular school classes. I even failed my English class at the second year of my college! Can you believe that?
But when I went to the United States, I just naturally interacted with people every day, and I have reached native-level English in about two years. So if I, who once failed at English, can reach native level, then anyone can - and I want to use my experience to help you to do just that: to become a confident, fluent, and knowledgeable English speaker.
Learning English allowed me to expand my career, meet and be able to communicate with amazing people, and even to become a university English teacher at the end.
Speaking good English can open up many new possibilities for you as well.
Let me help you to reach YOUR goals and dreams!

Still Not Sure?
Perhaps you are still not sure whether my lessons are a good fit for you. Perhaps you have tried many other courses, textbooks, or teachers, and you still didn't find what you wanted, still couldn't breakthrough, and now you are very cautious. I understand. I couldn't learn from books or from teachers either. It seemed very unnatural to learn a language from a textbook, and many of my teachers were just going through the materials like a robot, without teaching me how to really use English, how to really communicate.
That's why I don't use any textbooks in my lessons. You learn naturally with me, you won't even notice you are studying. It will be more like having fun communicating with a friend.
