About Me
Heyyyy!

I am a passionate linguist who abides by the rule "Never escape from learning something new"
I love ethnological studies, music, and cooking.

Me as a Teacher
"To learn someone's language is to learn their soul" - that's how the saying goes. And it could not be more right.
I have been teaching English, Hindi, Russian, and Urdu for more than 10 years now and I am quite experienced in helping people wreck down that 'language barrier' wall.

I use the grammar-translation method, as well the CLT to get my students to gain confidence in speaking and, most importantly, comprehend its structure. I teach to THINK like a native. And once you get the flow of the language that the native speakers know, you'll speak like one!
My lessons & teaching style
The ultimate way to actual fluency does not lie through the lexis solely.
In order to be fluent aka be confident when speaking your target language, you better feel it.
How does one do it? It's easy - rid your mind of your first language perceptions, think like a native speaker!
Psyched to try it out? Come book the first lesson!

I was born in Istanbul in 1983. I started teaching Turkish while studying Turkish Language and Literature at university. I worked in a language school and at universities, and I suppose I gained success. 😀 I have been teaching Turkish professionally for more than 16 years. I also taught Turkish for 5 years when I was a university student.

In 2018, I obtained a TESOL certificate and also began teaching English. I teach both adults and children. Creating a comfortable learning environment for my students is one of my top priorities. If you would like to learn Turkish or English in a consistent and structured way, I would be happy to work with you.

Learning a new language opens a new window into a person; teaching Turkish is the same for me. As I build stronger relationships with my students, I notice their engagement with the Turkish language deepens.

I speak English and a bit of Italian, and I have also studied Persian and German grammar. I am interested in literature.

I hold firmly to two main principles: creating a comfortable space for learning and building an encouraging atmosphere.

My students often describe me as patient, positive, and well-organised. Over time, I’ve found my own way of making Turkish feel easier, more enjoyable, and more practical to learn.

I love shaping each lesson around my students’ interests, needs, and learning styles. I adapt my teaching to the needs of students with special conditions, such as ADHD and OCD.

In my lessons, you’ll never feel afraid of making mistakes. Before long, you’ll start noticing them on your own and correcting yourself naturally.

Even though I use a communicative approach, my lessons are supported by a solid understanding of grammar, as Turkish has a very different structure.

I use the course book set prepared by Istanbul University. It follows a strategic approach to learning Turkish and includes all language skills—reading, grammar, writing, listening, watching, and speaking—from A1 to C2. All of these skills are essential for conversation.

I teach English for the A1 and A2 levels.

The workbook offers many exercises for homework or revision, and I support the book with my own authentic materials. I also use an interactive board that you can view anytime, and you can edit it as well. Repetition-based speaking practice plays an important role in my lessons.

Thank you, and I look forward to meeting you!

I specialize in teaching English as a foreign or a second language.
Are you interested in having fun and interractive class for your children or yourself? Join my class and you'll see for yourself thats it's possible to learn a new language while playing a game!

Or you need a strict teacher who is going to watch your every step on the way to progress? You can have both! I do give homeworks after every class to review the knowledge my students gained, but who said homeworks can't be fun?!

I'm not a naative speaker myself, so I know what you go though while struggling a new grammar skills. This is why I develope my personal system of studing and learing, considering that every person is individual and requirs a unique method of memorising information.

This class is for people who want to improve their English speaking skills. My Goal is to make my students learn English like a native, hence my students are only allowed to talk in English with me. I use a lot of external material in my class such as books, movie clips, and university lectures to help my students understand the language thoroughly. I also give regular homework to my students which usually are worksheets, movies, and books in accordance to their language level.

I’ll do my best to meet your needs for you to get what you want. So, hope to see you!

Merhaba!

As a second university, I continue to study Turkish Language and Literature. I have been teaching Turkish for many years. I am especially good at working with children.

During our classes, I'll pay attention to your issues/needs/difficulties, always taking notes during each class, and teaching the techniques to fix them.

I'm extremely positive, friendly, punctual, and patient, so you will not be stressed in my lessons :)

Hello, my name is Selin and I am here to give Turkish lessons as a local speaker with the methods that I determine for one's needs for learning. It will be nice to spend time together!

I focus on language acquisition techniques for foreigners and refer to lectures as meeting rather than 'lecture'. I adopt an existential educational model because each individual's tendencies and interests to learn the language differ. I adopt Chomsky's language acquisition philosophy based on the idea that all languages ​​can be acquired without an intermediary language. (Of course, English support is provided at the beginning.)

1.) Which Materials Do I Use in My Turkish Language Education?

My course materials consist of textbooks in PDF format and audio materials. In addition, I am creating a lecture area on Microsoft's free application Onenote. I also prepare games such as 'taboo' as material according to the needs. In my sessions, I do many activities to help people gain speaking, reading, and listening skills at the same time.

2.) How Do The Lessons Go?

I teach in person or online through the application called "Zoom". I prefer individual meetings, but sometimes I can include local speakers. I am of the opinion that learning by having fun, talking, and experiencing is the most permanent one. For this reason, it is very important for me to have fun and talk about current examples in our daily life.

3.) Where Did I Get My Language Teaching Education?

From a prestigious university in Turkey (Istanbul University) I received the "Certificate of Teaching Turkish for Foreigners" in 2020.

More About Me


I care about getting to know new people and thus building new relationships. I like to learn, I like to teach. So, I travel to gain learning and teaching experience.

I have traveled to many cities in Europe and would like to travel more in the future.

I have been involved in theater and I like to speak my language in a good diction. I like to read and vocalize books.

My personal interests are contemporary art and philosophy. I love artistic production (painting and collage).
Maybe we'll talk about all this when we meet, huh? And you can tell me about your interests :)
