Who will teach you

For more than ten years he has commanded container ships as boatmaster, mainly on the Rhine and in the ARA region, between the ports of Amsterdam, Rotterdam and Antwerp. Heavy traffic, large ports and tight loading schedules are a normal working day for him.

Today he is the director of TMLG Academy and its head instructor. He teaches the boatmaster course for the UNION patent, the Radar patent and simulator sessions on the certified ship-handling simulator, and guides the students of the training course. He teaches in Slovak and in German.

„Nobody is born a captain. You become one by learning even after you pass the exam.“
