My Tutor


Meet Orsi, my Hungarian tutor. Not only does she have the distinct pleasure of listening to my bastardized Hungarian three times a week, but she is also lucky enough to tutor me in the mornings. So not only is she quite helpful in developing my Hungarian skills, she motivates me to wake up, fix coffee and shower at a socially acceptable hour several times a week. She is quite patient with my Hungarian, spotty as it is,---nearly fluent in all foods, restaurant terms, swear words and commands a teacher uses with her students (e.g., sit down, stand up, come here, go there, where is your homework etc.), although lacking in certain areas of vocabulary (e.g., esoteric political theoretical terms).

To Whom It May Concern,

My name is Pete Siuda and I am a Language Specialist at Cartus Corporation. My position revolves around me finding language tutors for my clients, who have been relocated from outside the US to the US (or vice-versa). I have a client who will soon be relocating to Hungary and is in need of a Hungarian tutor. He is currently situated in the Research Triangle Park/Durham area, but I have been unsuccessful in finding a Hungarian tutor for him in that area.

I was wondering: do you know of any person who might be interested in becoming a tutor for my client? If so, could you please forward this information to them? If you do not know of anyone in particular but know of a good possible resource, could you possibly forward that information to me? Thank you very much for your time and patience, and I apologize for inconveniencing you.

Sincerely,
Pete
