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!

If you wish to brush up your Italian, resume a past series of lessons, or simply start from scratch learning Italian, this is the right lesson for you! I like to personalize each class/course according to the needs and goals of my students. My classes are focused on improving the student's communication skills. At beginner and lower intermediate levels, I prefer using a text book/ student book in the first part of the class. I usually use "Nuovissimo Progetto Italiano" and "Arrivederci" by Edilingua, or "Nuovo Espresso" and "Dieci" by Alma Publishing. For the second part of the lesson, I create engaging contents using original videos, press articles, extracts from blogs and social media, literary texts. If the students do not feel comfortable using Italian from scratch, I can switch to English, German, or Dutch. The course fee includes the correction of home assignments.

I offer structured and personalized Italian lessons for teenagers, students, and adults. Each lesson is adapted to the learner’s level, objectives, and learning pace, whether the goal is to build a solid foundation, improve grammar and vocabulary, develop speaking confidence, or strengthen Italian for academic, professional, or everyday use.

My teaching approach is clear, progressive, and communicative. Italian grammar is explained in an accessible way, with practical examples and immediate application. Lessons balance listening, reading, speaking, and writing skills, using varied materials such as dialogues, authentic texts, targeted exercises, and real-life situations.

Each session is dynamic, interactive, and focused on concrete progress, while maintaining a supportive and motivating learning environment. My aim is to help learners understand Italian structures clearly and use the language naturally and confidently.

I grew up abroad, studied in English, and have always worked in English-speaking environments. Over the years, I’ve led teams, coached individuals, and offered private sessions on various topics — including conversational English.

In schools, there’s often a strong focus on grammar, which is important, but not enough time is spent just talking. To really improve a language, you need space to speak freely, make mistakes, and have fun — and that’s exactly what I offer.

I can teach in English or Italian, and the sessions are relaxed, empathetic, and fully tailored to you. We can chat about everyday life, hobbies, travel, work — anything you like — and do exercises, reading, listening, or vocabulary practice if you want.

One of my favorite moments was working with my 12- and 13-year-old niece and nephew in Italy. They started off a little shy, but over time their confidence and English improved so much that when we traveled to the US last year, we could all converse easily and have fun with it.

The sessions are fun, stress-free, and flexible — your pace, your topics, your learning. Let’s practice together and enjoy the journey to more confident English (or Italian!) conversation.

Do you feel insecure when speaking English? Do you need someone to practice with regularly to improve your pronunciation, confidence, and overall speaking skills? Then let's work on it together. I have a degree in English Literature and Culture as well as a Cambridge Certificate.

With me you will:

- specifically improve your pronunciation

- gain more confidence when speaking

- expand your vocabulary

- and solidify your grammar step by step

I'd also be happy to support you with your writing: We can work together on your texts and significantly improve your written expression.

And if you're about to graduate from high school, I offer you a compact, effective crash course so you can get off to a great start, fully prepared.

I'm a TEFL-certified teacher of English as a foreign language with 3+ years of experience teaching at a private bilingual school in Thailand.

I know how to help my students break the language barrier, make them confident speakers, and help them be able to use English in real communicative situations.

I have a degree in English Philology, which gave me a deep understanding of linguistics and how languages are acquired, and I always try to apply that knowledge in my work. I have a neutral accent and a deep knowledge of phonology, which helps me teach English pronunciation successfully. I can teach my students to produce both American and British neutral accents and understand the differences between them.

I prefer a communicative approach and always try to maximize student talking time in my classes. Also, I love using the TPR (Total Physical Response) and TPRS (Teaching Proficiency through Reading and Storytelling) approaches in my classes, because they are extremely beneficial for young learners and increase their interest and motivation.

Do you want to learn to read or improve your reading level?
I would be happy to help you make progress at your own pace and according to your level.
My ambition is to help you discover new horizons through mastering reading.
Not only will you be able to decipher French with ease, but I will help you improve your intonation so that you can read with ease, conviction and pleasure.

Learning German can be easier: I support children (approx. 6-12 years old) with reading, writing, and spelling, patiently, systematically, and in a positive learning environment. We first work together to identify where they're struggling, and then practice exactly what's currently important for school. It's important to me that your child not only completes tasks "correctly," but truly understands how to learn more confidently and independently. We celebrate small steps forward, because they make the biggest difference.

Learn Italian in a clear, friendly, step-by-step way.

This class is ideal if you’re starting from zero (or you know a few words and want a real foundation). We focus on speaking confidence, useful vocabulary and grammar that actually makes sense.

What you’ll learn:

- Pronunciation & “Italian sound” (so you feel confident speaking)
- Essential grammar (present tense, articles, basic sentence structure)
- Everyday vocabulary + practical phrases
- Short dialogues and role-plays (real situations)
- Listening practice and speaking flow

How lessons work:

- Quick level check + your goal (travel, daily life, work, personal interest)
- Structured lessons with simple explanations and lots of guided practice
- Personalized materials + optional homework (if you want faster progress)
