Learning Turkish in fun meetings with a certified teacher
From 49.99 C$ /h
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 :)
