8. Katka Csényi shares her experiences learning and teaching English in the Czech Republic and Hungary

05/11/22 • 28 min

Katka Csényi has years of experience as both an English learner and an English teacher. She started learning English in school in the Czech Republic, and her thirst for English led her to spend time working and studying in England. The problem is, what she learned in school didn't prepare her for what happened when she got there!
Listen to her tell the story of how she went from not even being able to buy a train ticket in English to where she is now, teaching English to others in Hungary.
If you're in the south of Hungary and would like to contact Katka for English lessons, you can email her at [email protected].

English is confusing, so a lot of the questions I get are from people trying to sort out things they are confused about.
As a teacher, it's important for me to help my students untangle the confusion, but there's more to it.
Your attitude towards being confused can affect how you learn and remember English.
I know from experience that confused students are better at learning the things they are confused about. I also know that if they hold on to the 'confused' feeling a little longer, it helps them to retain that information.
