Botond Takats 
Introduction
I graduated in 2003 from the Faculty of Science at Eötvös Loránd University as a mathematics and computer science teacher. During my university years, in addition to private tutoring, I occasionally took on IT tasks and programming projects. Since 2002, I have been working as a freelancer.
After earning my master’s degree, I became the system administrator at Szerb Antal High School in Budapest’s 16th district in 2004, later transitioning to an IT teaching position. In addition to public education, I was involved in adult education, curriculum development, and consulting. Beyond maintaining the school’s website, I supported its operations with various self-developed client and macro programs, as well as multi-user web applications and databases. I have an advanced command of office productivity tools, including Office programs (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access), as well as image, audio, and video editing software.
