25 yıllık özel ders deneyimi olan seçkin bir devlet üniversitesinde İngilizce okutmanı olarak çalışmış her seviyede ve her yaş grubu için İngilizce ders veren işini çok severek yapan, genel olarak öğretmenliği çok seven bir öğretmenim.

Özel ihtisasım İngilizce sınavlara hazırlık,yeni başlayanlar için İngilizce ve çeviri dersleridir. Şimdiye kadar her yaştan yüzlerce öğrenciye özel ders verdim ve hemen hepsi sınavlarını başarıyla geçtiler.

Aynı zamanda Yabancılara Türkçe dersleri de vermekteyim. (İngilizce açıklamalı) 20 yıl boyunca çok sayıda büyük şirketin yabancı genel müdürlerine ve üst düzey yöneticilerine Türkçe öğrettim.

Sıfırdan İngilizceye başlayan kişiler veya gruplara da genel İngilizce dersleri vermekteyim. Daha önce hiç İngilizce dersi görmemiş olanlara ya da İngilizce öğrenmekte güçlük çekenlere de İngilizceyi konuşma ve anlama garantisi veriyorum.

i am a teacher who has 25 years of private teaching experience, has worked as an English instructor at an elite state university, teaches English at all levels and for all age groups, loves her job, and loves teaching in general. I can give face-to-face or online lessons in Istanbul and surrounding areas.

I also teach English to those who do not know English at all, know it very little, or think that they cannot learn English at all.

My specialization is English exam preparation, English and translation lessons for beginners. So far, I have given private lessons to hundreds of students of all ages and almost all of them passed their exams successfully.

I also give Turkish lessons to foreigners. (English explanation) For 20 years, I taught Turkish to foreign general managers and senior managers of many large companies.

I also give general English lessons to people or groups who are starting to learn English from scratch. I guarantee speaking and understanding English for those who have never taken an English lesson before or who have difficulty learning English.

I also provide written and verbal translation from English to Turkish or from Turkish to English. So far, I have translated 12 books from English to Turkish in the fields of literature, music and social sciences.

In language learning, the student's liking his teacher and enjoying his work, learning without getting bored and having fun in a comfortable and peaceful environment increases his study efficiency.

My methodology is to base myself on the courses in a structural and clear way, accessible to my learners to give them quality teaching and a total understanding of the courses in a cordial and satisfying atmosphere.
My method is very simple, I start by teaching you the most common and most used words and expressions. Then slowly the formation of sentences, conjugation, grammar but also how to pronounce each word well and know their positions in the sentence.
Thanks to my very simple and effective teaching methodology, the student can form sentences in Wolof very easily from our first lesson.

Wolof is the most spoken language in Senegal, Gambia where it has been enriched with contributions from other dialects, Arabic and French, which remains the official language. It is experiencing cultural expansion in the country and is also present in Gambia and Mauritania.

So to facilitate your integration into Senegalese society; it is essential to use this language because it is the vernacular language although there are several beautiful local Senegalese languages but Wolof remains the most used language. This is why I offer myself to teach the beauty of this language which is my specialty and my mother tongue, I also teach Senegalese and Gambian culture and civilization.

Learning Wolof offers anyone who wishes to know Senegal, in a professional, cultural or tourist context, the opportunity to establish privileged contact with its population.

I would also like to inform my learners that apart from online courses, I organize language visits and tours in Senegal; for those who wish to travel to practice and discover Senegal with special packages.

DON'T HESITATE TO BOOK A COURSE DIRECTLY SO THAT I CAN EXPLAIN AND INTRODUCE YOU TO THE WOLOF LANGUAGE.

High School Math can be confusing for students. Often there is not enough time in school to repeat the content and practice enough, for the students to gain confidence and a routine in solving mathematical problems. With my help and guidance, any confusion will be cleared and we will practice problem solving until you are confident and understand the material.

The lessons will be tailored to your needs and their structure depends highly on you: usually it is a mixture of repeating the content, solving exercises together, summarising important concepts and talking about exercises you tried yourself at home. The topics, content, pace and methods of learning will be adjusted to your needs, ensuring that you get the most out of my lessons. Besides the lessons, you will get "homework" to work on to strengthen your skills and independent working.

Topics include, but are not limited to:
-Linear Algebra
-Calculus
-Trigonometry
-Geometry
-Probability
-Set Theory
-Analysis

If you have another topic in mind that you really need help with, just send me a message!

Whether you need someone that explains the concepts to you or just someone to practice exercises with - I am sure I can help you. You have an exam soon and want to review the main topics? No problem! You have a very specific problem, question or topic that you need help with? I'm here to answer any questions! You need help with preparing for your A-levels/High School diploma? Don't fret, I will guide and prepare you!

The most important part of my lessons is, however, to ensure a safe and comfortable environment - I have no issue with explaining the same concept over and over again until I am convinced that you have understood it. It is important to me that you feel comfortable in asking any questions - I want to show you, that Math is more than a subject and that it can be fun!

Hi! I am an experienced English and Turkish Tutor who has been working with students from all around the world for more than 4 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 Asia, Europe, Australia, Africa and the Americas. 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 4 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.

🖐🏻 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.

Do you want to learn to speak Spanish better, gain more self-confidence, or achieve better results at school? In my lessons, we work step by step on speaking, listening, grammar, vocabulary, and writing skills.
Because I live in Colombia and speak Spanish every day, I can not only teach you the language but also show you how Spanish is really used in everyday life.

The lessons are practical and interactive. We work with conversations, exercises, role-playing, and situations from daily life so that you can apply the language immediately. Of course, we can also work on school assignments, exams, pronunciation, or specific topics you struggle with.

Thanks to my experience in language teaching and my knowledge of both Dutch and Spanish, I can explain grammar clearly and make difficult topics understandable.

My goal is for you not only to learn Spanish better, but also to use the language with more pleasure and confidence.
