International Education & EdTech Portfolio
Ph.D. · M.Sc. Computer Science Education · International Education & Digital Learning
International educator based in Yokohama with over 20 years of experience across education, academic research and educational technology. My work brings together Computer Science Education, Library and Information Science, and Linguistics, with a particular interest in digital learning, information literacy, assessment, and the role of AI and robotics in education.
Background
I have worked in education and academic research for more than 20 years, across Hungary, Germany and Japan. My academic background combines Linguistics (Ph.D.), Computer Science Education (M.Sc.) and Library and Information Science. These fields continue to shape my work in digital education, information literacy and educational technology.
My teaching experience spans humanities and technology subjects in international school settings. I am especially interested in how students understand complex information and how digital concepts can be made clear and usable in practice.
In 2026, I began working as an examiner for Cambridge Professional Development Qualifications (PDQ), specialising in Teaching and Learning and Teaching with Digital Technologies, and was appointed as an examiner for IB Digital Society. That same year, I founded Nitaii Learning Lab, an independent EdTech initiative. Focusa, a learning-support app focused on concentration, stress and self-regulation during study, is its first active project.
I am currently exploring Robot-Assisted Language Learning (RALL), with a focus on how educational and social robots can support language practice in real classroom settings. My next step is to develop small classroom pilots and evaluate where this approach adds practical value.
Work Samples
An independent EdTech initiative I founded in Yokohama to develop and test learning-support tools at the intersection of education, technology and cognition. The lab provides a framework for small-scale pilots and experimental projects, with Focusa as its first active project.
A learning-support app developed within Nitaii Learning Lab to help students become more aware of concentration, stress and self-regulation during study. The project covers research, UI/UX design, Swift development and beta testing with Japanese university participants, using Polar H10 data to explore patterns related to focus and wellbeing.
A comprehensive interactive textbook chapter built with eXe Learning, combining multimedia, interactive exercises, and self-assessment activities. SCORM-compliant, hosted on GitHub Pages.
A non-linear secondary curriculum bridging humanities and technology through cognitive metaphors and humour-based exercises. Student-centred and inquiry-based, created for ELTE's CS Education Methods course.
A 25-slide international conference presentation on VR, AR, and mixed reality in education, covering devices such as Microsoft HoloLens and Magic Leap alongside interactive walls, virtual dissection, and practical implementation strategies.
Website created for the Tokyo Hungarian School to present its programmes, provide practical information for families, and support Hungarian language and cultural education in Japan.
