 More Than Just Lessons—A Legacy of Growth

"Attila, you—stood in a class of your own,
Your wisdom was the foundation, the cornerstone."
 

This heartfelt poem from a graduating student captures what I strive for in every class. Teaching isn’t just about Microsoft Office skills—it’s about empowering individuals to build confidence, break barriers, and unlock their full potential.

With 30 years of experience in adult education, I’ve had the privilege of training 6,000 students across North America and Europe. From corporate professionals to career changers and mature students navigating new technology, my mission has always been clear: to make learning accessible, practical, and inspiring.

The testimonials speak for themselves:
"Attila genuinely cares about the people he teaches and sees them as people, not just students or numbers." – Sarah Mueller

"He made learning fun again. I absorbed everything that he taught, which is not an easy feat considering my age." – Sarah Jenkins

"Not only did we learn, but you gave us hope and confidence in ourselves, which was gone or damaged. I achieved my dream. A huge thank you." – Susan Hodgson

Through my work at CTS Canadian Career College and my online platform OfficeShortcuts.com, I strive to provide tailored, results-driven learning. Whether it’s simplifying Excel, mastering QuickBooks, or designing business solutions, I create an environment where students can thrive.

And when students share their journey in their own words, it reminds me why I do what I do:

A year has flown by, and here I stand,
With lessons learned, and dreams in hand.
From Excel formulas to Word’s clean page,
Each skill I mastered set the stage.
 

Attila, you—stood in a class of your own,
Your wisdom was the foundation, the cornerstone.
Your patience, like an endless tide,
Held me steady, always by my side.
 

Education is more than just software and shortcuts. It’s about empowerment, transformation, and lifelong confidence. And as long as there are students eager to learn, I’ll be here to guide them.

To all my students past, present, and future—thank you for being part of this journey.

With 30 years of experience in adult education, I have had the privilege of training 6,000 people across Europe and North America, helping them enhance their careers and lives through the power of technology.

As a Microsoft Office User Specialist, I focus on developing tailored solutions for corporations and small businesses while continuing to teach college courses. My mission is to unlock the full potential of individuals and businesses through customized learning materials and innovative programs.

A year has flown by, and here I stand,
With lessons learned, and dreams in hand.
From Excel formulas to Word’s clean page,
Each skill I mastered set the stage.
 

I’ve tackled taxes, accounting’s core,
Payroll, QuickBooks, and so much more.
Access databases and PowerPoint’s might,
Each challenge pushed me to new heights.
 

Bookkeeping taught me balance and care,
A skill I’ll carry with me everywhere.
And every step along the way,
My teachers guided me, day by day.
 

They shared their knowledge, their time, their heart,
Each lesson a masterpiece, a work of art.
But Attila, you—stood in a class of your own,
Your wisdom was the foundation, the cornerstone.
 

Your patience, like an endless tide,
Held me steady, always by my side.
Through every struggle, every doubt,
You lifted me up, helped me break out.
 

Your stories, they weren’t just tales to tell,
They opened doors, they broke the spell.
Each word, each pause, with such grace,
Made the impossible seem within reach, in place.
 

You made me believe in my own might,
And gave me the courage to take flight.
In every lesson, you saw what I could be,
Not just a student, but a force to see.
 

With you, I didn’t just learn—I grew,
You believed in me when I hardly knew.
Your heart, your spirit, the care you gave,
Taught me how to rise, how to be brave.
 

So now I stand, proud and ready to go,
With everything you’ve taught me, I’m set to grow.
Attila, thank you, from the depths of my soul,
For shaping me, for making me whole.
 

This year was a gift I’ll never forget,
Because of you, I’m not done yet.
And to my fellow graduates, let’s raise our voice,
Together, we’ve done it, we’ve made our choice.
 

Through all the work, the sweat, the tears,
We’ve conquered doubts, we’ve faced our fears.
“We did it!”—this moment is ours to keep,
Now let’s go forward, strong and deep.
