EU Projects Expert (Master, Phd) Support and Guidance for Skill-based or Integrated-Comprehensive Enhancement of English Competency

From 41.71 C$ /h

I provide language support and sessions for enhancing language competency in different ways and procedures, drawing upon nearly 15 years of utilizing English as my primary language in both professional and academic settings.

This dual-path process following my graduation from Political Sciences has not only required a continuous language development, but also its gradual progress necessitated by different national and international environments. Apart from the initial benchmarks such as KPSS, YDS, TOEFL, and Proficiency, I have been required to go through similar assessment procedures for writing, speaking and communication competency at upper levels.

As a graduate of the Faculty of Political Sciences where the medium of instruction is predominantly Turkish, I am familiar with the required steps to develop the language skills at different levels. Building upon this background, and backed up by my professional and academic involvements, I have been providing support for nearly five years, both for Turkish nationals and internationals of all ages and ranging from pre-intermediate to proficient levels.
These sessions are typically tailored to individual priorities, planned and progressed through our collaborative work; we can focus on a particular skill—such as grammar, writing, or speaking—or aim for an overall enhancement of linguistic competency through their various combinations.
My Master’s and Doctoral studies have been entirely in English, a nearly 15 years of process requiring gradual advancement of academic-theoretical language skills. In tandem with my postgraduate academic years, English has remained the primary language of communication in my professional involvements in multi-national projects (EU, UN, Embassies and NGOs). Furthermore, during this period, I have also taken part as a translator and editor in specific projects such as the translation of the EU Acquis into Turkish.

For more than 10 years both here and abroad, I am within a never-ending process requiring an upper level of proficiency in technical-diplomatic communication abilities as well. On this basis, regardless of the current level, I am also open to similar customized planning for those prioritizing a specific exam, project, assignment, or a particular area of expertise and field of interest.

Extra information

Please do not hesitate to reach out regarding any guidance for enhancing academic-theoretical language skills as well as specific work on technical-diplomatic writing and communication abilities. I would be pleased to offer any kind of support or guidance, for all ages—including children, youth, adults, and students or working professionals.

Our sessions are planned together regardless of your level. I am open to prioritising face-to-face work and online, or their different combinations so as the case for duration of the sessions. I am open to arrange the fees and costs in line with our planning, including hybrid sessions and the period we foresee. So, please do not hesitate for possibilities for negotiation.
