Hi, I am Hatice from Istanbul.

I HAVE BEEN TEACHİNG ONLINE AND FACE TO FACE FOR 25 YEARS.
I am a native speaker of Turkish and was born in Istanbul.

I have been teaching Turkish to foreigners and I have taught hundreds of students from all ages and professions for more than 20 years. I am a professional English teacher but I like teaching Turkish more as it is my mother tongue and it is a great pleasure for me to share its secrets and beauty.

While teaching I also love giving some useful information about the culture, people, cuisine, films and literature in Turkey to help you get connected to Turkish culture. I prepare written and verbal dialogues in the areas the student is interested in.

I am from Istanbul but I traveled almost all cities, mountains, rivers, lakes in Turkey. I am a person who likes less traveled roads and back streets. Traveling around the world and reading on the areas of spirituality, philosophy, psychology, and literature are my number one hobbies. I lived and worked in London, Toronto, and S. Korea. Living as an expat and learning several languages have helped me having sympathy with my students. Motivation, feeling relaxed and setting realistic targets, in the beginning, are usually the first thing to go.

As for my formal education, I studied Economics, International Relations, Western Philosophy, and American language and literature at the university (MA and BA). And after my 40 years old, I learned classical Arabic and Persian and started to study Islamic spirituality at the doctorate level. I taught English at Prep. school at Istanbul Technical University and Yeditepe University and am retired. Ever since I could remember I have been a teacher. Now I only teach Turkish privately and translate classical novels from English to Turkish. I translated 12 books from English to Turkish.

I teach Turkish that is tailored for each student. Each student is unique for me and I know that every student has her/his own way of learning.
If you are a beginner I give a short lecture about the history of Turkish and its characteristics and help you find your way in this very logical, consistent and elegant language. You understand that Turkish is different but that does not necessarily mean difficulty.
From the first lesson, you start speaking Turkish and find yourself in a dialogue.

I can teach at my place and your place (all around Istanbul).

I use several books using a grammar-based approach integrated with communicative methods to boost the development of all language skills. But we always focus on TALK, TALK, TALK. As a language learner for many years, I know one can learn, improve and take pleasure in a foreign language only by talking and communicating. It is essential to get direct pleasure from what you have learned. My aim is to motivate and inspire you to speak Turkish ignoring minor mistakes and without thinking grammar.

I try to keep in contact with my students almost every day through whatsapp and email. And start some short dialogues.

Hi! I am an experienced English and Turkish Tutor who has been working with students from all around the world for more than 3 years. I've been arranging Business English, Academic English, IELTS / TOEFL Exam preparation lessons as well as General Turkish classes from A1 to C1 with individuals from various countries such as Russia, United States, Germany, Spain, Sweden, Czech Republic, Gabon, Netherlands, United Kingdom, China, South Korea, South Africa and Cameroon and Scotland. I am ready to welcome my new students worldwide.

I focus on sharpening students' speaking skills in my classes. My main methodology is based on helping learners express themselves confidently and clearly in the target language. In 3 years of my teaching career, not only have I developed my own methodologies but also privatized classes and materials according to each learner's demands and needs. Besides, I support learners who face difficulties in prononcation during language acquisition with effective elocution lessons in both languages. Besides, I speak French.

Please don't hesitate to contact me for any questions.

Hello ! My name is Sude and I have graduated from the Faculty of Law in English and I am managing my own firm. I took the IELTS exam and got 8 points out of 9. Learning and teaching languages is one of my biggest hobbies and I do it with passion in my spare time. I think teaching is a very important virtue and requires a great deal of understanding and patience. I have 3 years of experience in teaching Turkish and English.

I aim to make you enjoy learning Turkish from A1 level to the most advanced levels, both in reading, writing and speaking. You will have a general understanding of Turkish right after you start the lessons and you may find yourself having daily conversations later on! I see making mistakes as a part of the learning process and I try to correct mistakes together so that you can learn in the most efficient way. I engage in daily conversations with you specifically to advance your speaking so that together we overcome your fear of speaking!

If you have a lesson with me, I will assure you that I do not only intend to teach you Turkish, but will make a friendship with you and make you love the language more with easy learning techniques and necessary repetitions. When you start writing and speaking, you will talk about the topics you love and you will almost forget that you are in a lecture. We will make sure to practice speaking in every lesson and make sure you progress as quickly as possible. With both physical and online learning options, you will be able to follow the program that best suits your life. Remember, some things only seem difficult until you learn them!

🖐🏻 HI, SALUT, MERHABA! 🖐🏻
How are you doing? Comment allez-vous? Nasılsınız?
Thanks for having a look at my profile!
Here is the pathway we will follow in our lessons!
We will start our lessons by learning the most basic skills such as correct pronunciation and simple grammar rules.
We will continue to improve our speaking, listening and grammar levels by learning new informations step by step.
Based on my 13 years of experience, I think that A1 level is a very important period in language learning. When learning any language, beginner level students should learn it in the correct order and important details should be explained well by practising previous ones. Students at more advanced levels, such as A2, B1 or above, also need to practice their skills at the previous level thoroughly to improve their language skills. I try to provide good teaching by paying attention to these important points in my lessons. I keep our lessons' notes in a word file. After our lessons, I send you back all the additional notes and exercises that we covered in our lesson as a Word file.

I'm a Turkish language and literature major who's been teaching Turkish since 2018. Turkish is my native language but I also speak English very fluently.

My Turkish lessons are based on the communicative approach but I also believe a solid knowledge of grammar is very important. So I adopt a good mix of the two!

I offer Spanish tutoring at beginner and intermediate levels. Whether you're learning Spanish at school or just want to get started with a new language, I tailor each session to your age, level, and learning goals.

For school students who are learning Spanish as part of their education, specifically middle/high school students, sessions are tailored to each student’s needs, focusing on vocabulary, grammar, reading, and speaking. I can help you build a solid foundation and gain confidence at school.

For younger children, lessons include games, songs, and playful activities that make learning fun and natural. Based on "Learning while playing". These lessons are not given online to ensure better engagement and a more interactive, hands-on learning experience.

For adult learners, no prior experience is required. We can start from scratch or build on what you already know, using everyday situations and conversations as the foundation. No pressure, no memorizing long word lists, just consistent progress to confident communication.
