Your teacher will be Doug Coppage, an American who has been living in Vác since 2005. He grew up in Virginia.
Like most Americans, he went to public schools and learned to drive as a teenager. He met his wife at the University of Virginia. They were married in 1985.
Doug has two degrees from the University: a Bachelor of Science in Education (Secondary Mathematics) and a Master of Computer Science. He has worked as a schoolteacher, a computer programmer, a software tester, and a multimedia specialist. He volunteered as an interpreter for the Deaf for ten years. He now maintains a baseball field in Vác and coaches a team for kids.
He has traveled through a lot of the United States, to Africa, Australia, and several European countries. He and his family lived in Budapest from 2002 to 2004, and after a year in Virginia, they came to Vác in 2005.
