English Private Tuitions (Adults and School Students) + IELTS

I am specialized in teaching English to adults and students in international and private schools.

For adults, this class offers a general English practice or IELTS test preparation depending on what the student is looking for. The lessons will first start by evaluating their abilities in the four main skills (Speaking, Listening, Writing and Reading) then we can work together to plan the weekly lessons accordingly.

As for the school pupils, the student shall present his/her previous test papers and results to identify his/her weaknesses and strengths. The second step is to follow the school's book(s) and curriculum (unless the parents wish otherwise). The classes consists of test revision, homework assistance and lots of practice.

Any communication occurring during the class must be in English.
The class usually consists of one student.

About Me

I am a very patient teacher who cares about the personal development of his students.

I make sure the student understands the main concept of the lesson during the class by motivating and encouraging them to speak out and not correcting them consistently.

Every student is unique in his/her learning ability so the lessons will be tailored just for the student, which increases the chances to understand and grasp a new language easier.

The best way to learn a new language is by relating it to the student's life or experience and this is why I always communicate with my students about their hobbies and interests in the first few lessons.

Finally, punctuality and time management is very important for me.

English Language & Reading Comprehension Course to Advance English for Students Pursuing University Abroad from American born Native Speaker
This is a Literature based English course most suited for high school students with an intermediate to advanced level of preexisting English knowledge; students pursuing university options abroad or English-teaching universities nationally will find this course especially useful. This program is based on the teaching practices and curriculum of American secondary school language education. Its aims are to strengthen reading comprehension ability, develop critical thinking skills, improve expression in a foreign language and encourage deeper analysis, with a secondary focus on vocabulary expansion and grammar correction. Students will be asked to complete reading and writing assignments at home followed by an in-depth discussion of the material and further exercises during the lesson. If a student regularly fails to complete given homework or is unwilling to learn, I will not be continuing with lessons. This class is also available for University students looking to perfect their grasp of the English language, and can easily be adjusted for 7th and 8th grade levels, given students can express themselves somewhat comfortably in English. About me: Hello, I am an American-born bi-native speaker of both English and Turkish. I have received my primary and secondary education in the USA. Currently, I reside in Istanbul while I attend Boğaziçi University. I have 3 years of intermittent experience tutoring children of all ages in English; I also have experienced first-hand the education system of an English-speaking country and the application process, i.e. what Universities expect from applicants. I noticed that the current education system favors rote memorization and quantitative skills but tends to overlook skills such as the analysis of a text and the presentation of that analysis that admissions offices of universities abroad and professors teaching at esteemed schools nationally look for. When I realized this deficiency I also realized I had the skills and experience to close this gap for motivated, aspiring academics who want to broaden their horizons both nationally and internationally. I am also available for speaking practice, homework help, and SAT/ACT preparation. (The SAT and ACT are university entry exams in the United States. My scores: SAT=2240/2400, %1st percentile; ACT=32/36)
