My
name is Kata. I’m 22 years old. I came from the western part of
Hungary, from Körmend. I’m spending my third year at the University of
Physical Education, currently I’m a student of human kinesiology so I’ve
been living in Budapest for 3 years. I spent last semester on Erasmus
in France but that wasn’t my first experience there and I’m sure, it
wasn’t the last time either. In the future I would like spending more
time abroad. My goal is getting as many places as I can, meeting new
people, getting to know more cultures and languages. I can speak english
and french so far but I’m never satisfied with my knowledge so I always
want to improve myself. That’s why I’d like to spend more times abroad
to have more experiences, too. For the time being, I’d like to work in
rehabilition to help sportsmen being better or to ensure the best
quality of life for the elders. The sport was always a part of my life
in different ways: I did athletics, gymnastics but I spent the most time
of my childhood in the swimming pool. Lastly I chose handball that’s
the nearest to my heart because playing in a team is the most pleasant
experience for me. But I love all types of sports. J
Budapest is
one of the best place for me and I hope that you’ll think the same soon.
I’ll do my best to familiarize and make you love this culture and make
this period being the best in your life.
Juhász Benjamin
My
name is Benjamin, I am 22 years old, I am studying Recreation. I will
finish my BSc at this semester. I have just come back from my Erasmus
from the United Kingdom. Before that, I had spent 4 months in Zagreb, in
Croatia. I used to play soccer for 10 years. Nowadays I swim and do
work out. I am interested in most of the sports, besides this, I like
cooking, watching films, listening to music etc.. I like to work with
people especially with children. Due to the fact that I have lived in
abroad as a student I know how much a mentor can mean for a new incomer.
Therefore I would like to help you in anything what I can, in order to
make your study abroad period a great time. Feel free to contact me.
Enjoy your time in Budapest.
I would
like to apply to become an Erasmus mentor at our university. My name is
Benjámin Juhász, I am twenty-two years old. I study Recreation at the
University of Physical Education (TF). After finishing my Bachelor
studies, I would like to continue my studies with Master of Sciences. I
have spent 4 months in Zagreb, studying at the University of Zagreb, at
the Faculty of Kinesiology and I also have spent 4 months in England
next, at the University of Sunderland. The latter one was my Erasmus+
study period.
I would like to be a mentor of a foreign student in
the next semester, as I have experienced how important and useful can
be this support for an exchange student. Especially in the first few
weeks, a mentor can help with the assimilation to go smoothly and make
it as comfortable as it can be for a new incomer student. Besides this,
after improving my English in the United Kingdom, I would like to keep
this level, consequently it would be useful for me to talk in English
again.
Furthermore, I learnt how much you can learn from people
who come from a different culture. You can meet different aspects of
worldview, different ways of thinking, etc. Sincerely I think the mentor
program can be useful for the student and the mentor equally.
All
in all, the purpose of this letter is to apply for an Erasmus mentor
position. I would like to help to another student who will come to our
country and our university in the following semester. I will put an
effort to make the Erasmus time for him or her a pleasant experience. In
addition I would like to reach to evolve a good opinion about Hungary
for the foreign student.
Kurucz Anita
Hi,
My name is Anita Kurucz and I'm 20 years old. I'm from Székesfehérvár,
but now I live in Budapest in the hostel of our school. I am studying
here in the University of Physical Education to become a great physical
education teacher.
My hobbies: Of course sports. I have been
doing sports since I was 3 years old, I tried myself out in different
areas of sports. I played basketball for 5 years and at the same time I
danced (balley and folkdance). Later I was a member of a musical studio
in our capital city, too. Swimming and gymnasics are also close to my
heart. Actually I'm teaching kids to swim in the swimmingpool of our
university. My other love is the theatre - everything what has to do
with theatre and musicals.
I consider myself an open-minden, friendly and spirited person who likes to get to know new people, get new friends.
I would be happy if I could meet you and spend time with you.
I
am open to all programmes like sightseeing, enterainment, cultural
programmes...whatever you would like to try out or where ever you would
like to visit.
My name is Anita Kurucz, I am 20 years
old, and I am from Székesfehérvár. Currently I am studying in the
University of Physical Education in Budapest and I live in the hostel of
our school. I am studying to become physical education teacher.
I
have recently learnt about the opportunity to become a member of the
erasmus mentoring group. In the past couple of months I got the chance
to look into the life of a mentor, and realised how important their work
is to integrate erasmus student to a new country. Based on this insight
I can say that the background work of the workers, coordinators,
mentors part is indispensable in the universities. I think it is really
important to be associated with other countries, nations, and the
Erasmus Program gives excellent opportunity for somebody to travel
abroad, meet other cultures, get new friends, gain more and more
experiences.
I have already met some erasmus students in
different programmes. We went hiking together, and besides that I met
them in bars in a couple of evenings, therefore I got the opportunity to
get to know them better. However I feel it is time for me to organise
programmes alone for them.
I am open to all programmes like
sightseeing, entertainment, cultural programmes, whatever they would
like to try out or where ever they would like to visit. I wouldn't mind
to organise programmes for one person, but I think I would be able to
handle a smaller team, too.
Therefore with this motivational letter I would officially like to apply for an erasmus mentor position.
Laskovics Tímea
Hello, my name is Tímea Laskovics, I’m 20 years old and I live in Budapest. I study at the University of Physical Education where I’m in my second year. After my graduation at the university, I’d like to be a Physical Education teacher, furthermore I am considering doing a massage course, because I am really interested in it. I speak English (I have learnt it for 8 years) and a little French.
As I study at a sports university I like all kind of sports, but I prefer to do sports rather than watching them. I have tried a lot of sports, for example, I used to do rhytmic gymnastics, swimming, synchronised swimming and dancing.
My hobbies are craftworking, reading and of course sports. I am also interested in psychology.
With this letter I would like to express my interest in the university’s Erasmus Student Exchange Programme and I would like to apply for the mentor position. I strongly believe that this programme will give me a lot of useful experience for my future career and plans. I would like to be a Physical Education teacher, so through this programme I could gain international experience in my country and I could broaden my mind to get acquainted with different people, cultures and teaching systems.
During my secondary school studies, I got the chance to be a participant of student exchange programmes (for example Comenius). Within the confines of these programmes, I spent several weeks abroad, so I had the opportunity to build international relations. I have learnt a lot thanks to those experiences. To begin with, I realised that international relations are significant components in our lives, because they teach us to estimate other cultural beliefs and attitudes. In addition, when it was my turn to host foreigners, I have learnt how to show them my country’s memorable sights and traditional dishes in an organised and enjoyable way.
I worked for a team building company a few years ago, where I learnt how to communicate appropriately between different age groups. Furthermore, I could improve my organising skills, because I planned and organised different team building games. Additionally, when I was a host, I organised sightseeing tours, so my organising and planning skills are quite good. In my view these skills are very important for a mentor. Some words about my inner characteristics which I also consider to be important: I am a friendly, always smiling, helpful, spirited, creative and inquisitive person. In my opinion, these skills make me suitable for the mentor position.
Thank you very much in advance for this opportunity and for considering my application. Previously I have already taken part in programmes for Erasmus students, but now I would like to be an official mentor. I am sure that this opportunity will help a lot in my future professional plans and personal development.
