Hi, I am Hatice from Istanbul.

I HAVE BEEN TEACHİNG ONLINE AND FACE TO FACE FOR 25 YEARS.
I am a native speaker of Turkish and was born in Istanbul.

I have been teaching Turkish to foreigners and I have taught hundreds of students from all ages and professions for more than 20 years. I am a professional English teacher but I like teaching Turkish more as it is my mother tongue and it is a great pleasure for me to share its secrets and beauty.

While teaching I also love giving some useful information about the culture, people, cuisine, films and literature in Turkey to help you get connected to Turkish culture. I prepare written and verbal dialogues in the areas the student is interested in.

I am from Istanbul but I traveled almost all cities, mountains, rivers, lakes in Turkey. I am a person who likes less traveled roads and back streets. Traveling around the world and reading on the areas of spirituality, philosophy, psychology, and literature are my number one hobbies. I lived and worked in London, Toronto, and S. Korea. Living as an expat and learning several languages have helped me having sympathy with my students. Motivation, feeling relaxed and setting realistic targets, in the beginning, are usually the first thing to go.

As for my formal education, I studied Economics, International Relations, Western Philosophy, and American language and literature at the university (MA and BA). And after my 40 years old, I learned classical Arabic and Persian and started to study Islamic spirituality at the doctorate level. I taught English at Prep. school at Istanbul Technical University and Yeditepe University and am retired. Ever since I could remember I have been a teacher. Now I only teach Turkish privately and translate classical novels from English to Turkish. I translated 12 books from English to Turkish.

I teach Turkish that is tailored for each student. Each student is unique for me and I know that every student has her/his own way of learning.
If you are a beginner I give a short lecture about the history of Turkish and its characteristics and help you find your way in this very logical, consistent and elegant language. You understand that Turkish is different but that does not necessarily mean difficulty.
From the first lesson, you start speaking Turkish and find yourself in a dialogue.

I can teach at my place and your place (all around Istanbul).

I use several books using a grammar-based approach integrated with communicative methods to boost the development of all language skills. But we always focus on TALK, TALK, TALK. As a language learner for many years, I know one can learn, improve and take pleasure in a foreign language only by talking and communicating. It is essential to get direct pleasure from what you have learned. My aim is to motivate and inspire you to speak Turkish ignoring minor mistakes and without thinking grammar.

I try to keep in contact with my students almost every day through whatsapp and email. And start some short dialogues.

Hi! I am an experienced English and Turkish Tutor who has been working with students from all around the world for more than 4 years. I've been arranging Business English, Academic English, IELTS / TOEFL Exam preparation lessons as well as General Turkish classes from A1 to C1 with individuals from Asia, Europe, Australia, Africa and the Americas. I am ready to welcome my new students worldwide.

I focus on sharpening students' speaking skills in my classes. My main methodology is based on helping learners express themselves confidently and clearly in the target language. In 4 years of my teaching career, not only have I developed my own methodologies but also privatized classes and materials according to each learner's demands and needs. Besides, I support learners who face difficulties in prononcation during language acquisition with effective elocution lessons in both languages. Besides, I speak French.

Please don't hesitate to contact me for any questions.

In the second level, we will learn more sounds, read, and form more sentences together. We will also take the basics of grammar. In order to master the basics of the language, including grammar, pronunciation, speaking, and listening comprehensibly, this requires organized effort, dedicated tools, and guidance that knows your level, your weaknesses and improves them, and your strengths and reinforces them. This is done using modern websites to facilitate distance learning.

Therefore, I am Professor Menna Mahmoud, and I learned the language through self-study, reaching the B1 level, thanks to God. I have experience teaching the language from the foundational level to elementary and middle school students for a year and a half. Through a structured and enjoyable journey that includes helpful methods and websites in the learning process, you will notice progress from the beginning that will propel you forward to complete your journey of learning a new language.

The best way to learn Spanish is by actively using the language. In this lesson, I help students step by step to improve their speaking, listening, grammar, vocabulary, and writing skills.

The lessons are practical, interactive, and tailored to the student's level and goals. We work with conversations, exercises, role-playing, texts, and everyday situations so that the language becomes immediately applicable. We can also focus on school assignments, exams, pronunciation, or building more confidence while speaking.

I pay close attention to clear explanations and active practice, so that grammar is not only learned but truly understood. Whether you are a beginner or already have more experience with Spanish, the lessons are tailored to your pace and learning style.

My goal is to make Spanish accessible, motivating, and practical, so that students can use the language with more pleasure and confidence.
