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. 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.

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.

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

One-on-one lessons on Apprentus are just for you. Are you ready to see the benefits and start speaking right away? We will not forget to smile while doing fun and interesting lessons! :)

Thank you, and I look forward to meeting you!

Arabic becomes much easier when speaking, listening, reading, writing, grammar, and vocabulary are developed as connected skills rather than taught as isolated rules.

I am a native Arabic speaker, PhD-qualified engineer, university professor, researcher, and multidisciplinary tutor with more than 30 years of experience in teaching, training, mentoring, academic work, and personalized learning.

This class is designed for children, teenagers, university students, professionals, heritage learners, and adult learners who want to build a clear and confident command of Arabic. Lessons can be taught in Arabic, English, or French, allowing explanations to be adapted to the learner’s linguistic background and level.

Depending on your objectives, we can focus on one specific pathway or combine several skills into a structured learning program.

My teaching approach follows a clear progression:

I do not teach Arabic as a disconnected collection of vocabulary lists and grammar rules. I connect language structure to meaningful texts, conversation, writing, and real communication. Depending on the learner’s age and level, lessons may include guided dialogues, fully vocalized texts, visual explanations, reading passages, grammar analysis, structured exercises, dictation, storytelling, writing tasks, and personalized practice.

We can work with your school curriculum, university course, textbook, reading difficulties, grammar questions, writing samples, professional objectives, heritage-language needs, or personal learning goals.

Whether you are learning your first Arabic letters, improving conversation, strengthening reading, mastering grammar, developing academic writing, or reconnecting with Arabic as a heritage language, I will adapt the sessions to your level, objectives, pace, and preferred learning style.

My goal is to help you understand Arabic as a living, structured, and expressive language—and to use it with increasing accuracy, confidence, and independence.
