원어민 쌤 프로필

Merhaba!

I was born in Istanbul in 1983. I started teaching Turkish while studying Turkish Language and Literature at the university. I worked in a language school and at universities, and I suppose that I gained success. 😊 I have been teaching Turkish professionally for 14 years. I also taught Turkish for 4 years when I was a university student.

If a learner can master basic sentence forms, the rest will come much easier. On the other hand, making mistakes is also very important. Especially, a learner can not speak without making a mistake the first and second time.

My students are always varied and have diverse learning skills. My professionalism also allows me to tailor language education according to individual interests, needs, and capacities. In the classroom, I hold firm three main principles: first, providing a comfortable environment, second, creating an encouraging atmosphere, and third, establishing a collaborative instruction model. I consider that I developed an aptitude for making learning Turkish to become much easier, enjoyable and practical for my students.

I use a book prepared by a university in Turkey. I share the pdf version of the book for my lessons. I also adapt the materials according to the learner’s needs and support the book with my authentic materials. Even though I use a communicative approach, all my lessons are guided by a solid knowledge of grammar.

I learned Ottoman Turkish at the university, so I'm familiar with Persian and Arabic vocabulary. I also studied Persian, German, and Italian grammar.

I always think about Istanbul -I was born and grew up here- it is a good place for self-improvement. First and foremost, Istanbul hosts international people coming from around the world. It is considering to me, I am lucky because I have one of the most pleasant professions.

When teaching Turkish, promoting cross-cultural awareness forms an important part of my lessons. Teaching the language involves both the students and myself in a dynamic conversation about our cultural backgrounds.

Teaching Turkish is not only teaching a language but also teaching a culture. I am interested in literature, cinema, and music and like visiting museums. I always share the activities with my students. I write books and movie analyses in my spare time.

If you want to speak Turkish well, please contact me. It is fun, and we will smile during the lesson!

Extra information:
The main book is structured with a strategic approach to learning Turkish by using all the language skills – Reading, Writing, Listening and Speaking from A1 to C2. Additionally, the workbook includes many exercises for doing homework or revision. If you are an absolute beginner, A1 or A2 level, you should have lessons at least 2-3 times per week.


P.S. I would appreciate it if you could contact me before booking a lesson. My calendar on another platform is not synchronized with Verbling. Thank you for your understanding!
