Laszlo
Certified Teacher, Strong in Math, Science, English
Approachable, patient, and experienced, I'm ready to help motivated learners of any age. I have spent most of my career in middle and high school education, and have shifted more of my time toward tutoring because I want to focus on education, not classroom management. Let me help you get to the next level of understanding in math or science, or in your work with computers. In addition to my 8 years as a certified teacher with public schools in NYC, I have worked in computer repair/trouble...
Microsoft Windows
I use Microsoft Windows as my primary operating system. I know how to customize it and install/remove programs. I have an A+ certification which demonstrates competence as a computer technician who can maintain and troubleshoot PCs.
Praxis
Hungarian
I am a native Hungarian speaker - I lived in Hungary and went to school there until 2nd grade. My Hungarian is at an intermediate level, with excellent native pronunciation and everyday vocabulary, but lacking a full adult vocabulary. I can provide a solid introduction to Hungarian as well as conversational practice.

Microsoft Word
Microsoft PowerPoint
As a computer teacher, I have taught Microsoft PowerPoint to middle school and high school students. I can walk you through the steps of creating slides, adding images and sounds, and making use of transitions, animations and different color schemes. With a solid introduction, you can be making great-looking slides in no time.
Linux
I used Ubuntu Linux as my primary operating system for about 2 years, so I'm very familiar with it. I'm also proficient with Inkscape and the GIMP (native Linux programs similar to Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop, respectively) and I've taught those programs to high school students as a computer teacher.
Macintosh
Last year as a teacher, I used my school-provided MacBook Pro for all lesson planning, grading and corresponding with parents, teachers and administrators. I have also maintained a computer lab full of Macintosh computers, where I've installed and upgraded programs, fixed problems, and even reinstalled the operating system.

DOS
The first computer I had, as a teenager, ran on DOS and Windows 3.1. Most of the popular games of the time (such as the original Doom) ran on DOS, so I became familiar with the command line interface by necessity. Nowadays, I sometimes use DOS, or at least its command line interface, when troubleshooting Windows computers.

Microsoft Excel
As a computer teacher, I have taught Microsoft Excel to middle school and high school students. I can show you shortcuts for entering data quickly and efficiently, how to use formulas and sort information, and how to add properly-labeled charts appropriate for your data. With a solid introduction, you can be making useful, great-looking spreadsheets and charts in no time.
