TOY - Trainers Online for Youth
Gabriella Nagy
Intro
Gabriella Nagy (Female & Hungarian) was born in 1977 and is currently living in Hungary. The trainer has been involved in several training activities such as Training for EVS volunteers staying in Hungary (on-arrival + mid term) in Monoszló, Hungary and Unique TC «Facilitating the volunteers' learning for mentors in EVS projects» in EYCB Budapest, Hungary and Urban Youth TC1 in Budapest, Hungary.
Here's a little description about the trainer:
What is rather easy for me: to get enthusiastic, to have fun, to adapt, to get on with Spartan circumstances, to be patient and emphatic, to perceive the mood and the necessities of a group, to smile, to talk in front of many people, to talk clearly, to synthetise information, to be thorough and care for details, to change quickly from one language to the other
What I have difficulties with (but I can always try ☺): to work in a very formal context, to wear high heals, to eat meat, to work alone without emotive support and feedback from team, to cope with very authoritarian leadership, to start the morning without a coffee or tea, to do things much ahead before the deadline
"In the universe the difficult things are done as if they are easy.
In the universe great acts are made up of small deeds.
The sage does not attempt anything very big,
And thus achieves greatness.
Easy promises make for little trust."
Lao Tzu
Trainer background
Current occupation
free lance
Work experience
Between 2000 and 2010 I worked for Artemisszio Foundation, Budapest in different positions: language teacher, animator, mentor, project coordinator (international mobility projects and global education projects), trainer, head of the youth department of the Foundation.
Between October 2010 and October 2011 I worked at Torri Superiore ecovillage, Italy coordinating the hosting activities of the ecovillage (tourism, courses, volunteers).
In the future I intend to realise training activities as a freelance trainer.
Educational pathway
Formal education:
- BEd (teacher's degree) of English as a second language
- MA of Italian language and literature
At the University I have attended courses of pedagogy and pshicology, I have gained teaching experience and learnt about interculturality.
Non formal education:
- 2000 Youth Exchange in Padova, Italy
- 2001 EVS at Xena Association, Padova, Italy
- 2009 Leonardo da Vinci traineeship at COSPE, Genova, Italy and at Torri Superiore Ecovillage, Italy
- 2000- local volunteering (ELTE University, Dialect Film Festival, etc.)
I consider these activities as the basis of the work I am doing. The EVS has provided me with the motivation to start working in the non profit sector and - together with the other non formal learning experiences - has definitely enriched me both from a professional and from a personal point of view.
Training for trainers I have received:
- 2007-2008 V4 Future Training for trainers (organised by the N.A.s of the V4 countries)
- 2005 EVS Trainers' meeting (organised by the Estonian N.A.)
- April 2004 SALTO Training for trainers on cultural diversity
