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.

This is a big adventure and we have to deal with its difficulties! I am solution oriented teacher and I know how to make this process fun and easier.

🖐🏻 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.
