Learn & Practice & Talk Turkish & English with Başak, who is an Experienced and Patient Teacher for Adults and Kids, Online/In-Person LessonTranslate this text using Google Translate.

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!

Hello! I’m Yunus Emre, a Turkish language instructor working with students from many different countries around the world. I offer lessons that focus on speaking skills, supported by structured materials such as books and videos, helping you use the language correctly and naturally. With more than 4 years of experience, I know that every learner has their own pace and goals. That’s why I tailor each lesson to your specific needs. For beginners, I provide clear and simple explanations; for advanced learners, we focus on fluency, vocabulary development, and improving expression in everyday situations. We do more than just conversation practice; we also work on reading and listening skills through activities based on books and videos. This helps you strengthen your language ability in real-life contexts and professional environments. During our lessons, we also talk about Turkish culture, lifestyle, and common expressions, making the learning process more enjoyable and meaningful. I always aim to create a supportive environment that encourages you to speak without fear of making mistakes. Whether your goal is travel, work, daily communication, or improving your fluency, I would be happy to create a personalized learning plan for you. Together, we can develop your Turkish in a structured and enjoyable way. I look forward to meeting you in our first lesson!

I am following a class with Başak to learn turkish. The lessons are held in english. This course covers pronunciation, grammar and free speaking which are also adapted to daily life situations as well as speaking about yourself. I have experienced a very well organized and structured teacher on a professional basis. The teacher gives clear instructions, pays attention to the pronunciation and corrects you when needed, which is crucial for the turkish pronunciation. The course fees contain the tuition as booked and course material as the class is accompanied by a book (workbook and exercise book) and audio files. The books are sent to you in advance, makes it very convenient to take a print out or as a digital version on your tablet/PC/phone. Between the lessons homework will be assigned and checked by her via mail and discussed in the next lesson. So far, I am very happy with the lessons and I am also confident that I will improve my turkish steadily in the future with her. Thanks

We are very happy with the French lessons Awni gives to our 14-year-old daughter. He is very flexible and adapts the lessons perfectly to her needs and level! He places special focus on pronunciation, vocabulary, listening skills, and conversation, while introducing interesting topics that make the lessons engaging and enjoyable. He is also willing to adjust the lessons to the homework and topics covered at school, which has been extremely helpful for her progress and confidence in French. Our daughter genuinely enjoys the lessons because Awni is motivating, clear, patient, and kind. He creates a positive atmosphere that makes learning fun and effective at the same time!! We highly recommend him as a French teacher!

I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the wonderful work Aml do with the children. She is patience, creativity, and her dedication have created a nurturing and engaging learning environment. Aml genuinely care about each child’s development, and her positive energy encourages them to explore, learn, and grow with confidence.
