Learn or improve your French with a native during the whole year!

From 26 € /h

Hi! Staying one year in Istanbul to learn Turkish (I also speak Russian if needed), I'll be glad to get you beginning or improving French language!
For me, language should be taught as it is: livy, and going along with a culture. Thus, since the first steps, I propose to listen to songs, to watch movie extracts, to read literary texts, etc. Of course, grammar and conjugations are inevitable, so I'll turn them into your best French friends :)
Graduated in humanities and social sciences, I've a good knowledge of French language rules, as well as of literature.

After graduating from high school, I went to Egypt for language education and studied Arabic for 8 months. Then, when my application for undergraduate education in Saudi Arabia was accepted, I started my education life in Saudi Arabia. During this time, I graduated from the three-year language institute at Imam Mohammad Ibn Saud University in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, with an 81 degree. Then, I completed my four-year undergraduate education at the university where I studied. Due to the pandemic, I continue my Master's education via distance education at the university where I graduated. I have native level reading, writing and speaking skills, especially in fasih Arabic.

I have a certificate of oath as an Arabic sworn translator from more than ten notaries. I also serve as a Judicial Translator at the Istanbul Courthouse.

For a long time, I have been giving private lessons to expatriate families and people from Turkey, especially the children of expatriate families, who want to learn Arabic. In addition, I serve as a sworn translator in many notaries.

I can guarantee that someone who does not even know Arabic letters will be able to read and partially write Arabic letters in as little as 6 lessons, provided that the homework I give is done.

Due to the pandemic, I teach my lessons online using a graphic tablet designed for private lessons and graphic drawings, so the lessons take place in a classroom environment. You will appreciate how useful and efficient the online webcam lessons are, which you have already remembered with the work we have done from the first lesson.

Hello everyone!
I am a Franco-American student, and I just love languages. I have taught English, French and Italian for years, after a rigorous training in a literary « prépa », Louis-le-Grand in Paris. I am always jovial and patient with my students, and I provide them with interesting material (videos, poems, old books), quite different from a « normal » school setting.
I strive not only toward my students' improvement, but also to make sure that they learn how to learn a language by themselves.
That can be done from a very young age and it is a very useful skill, that helped me learn German and Spanish without any proper lesson. I am now learning Turkish.

I can help you or your child learn English, either outside of the school curriculum or to guide him through his or her school work.

Turkish is my native language and I would like to share my knowledge with people who wishes to learn or further develop their Turkish language skills. I can provide adequate knowledge for general language skills as well as focus on development of specific skills such as writing, speaking, reading and/or listening. I write literature pieces in Turkish as well, and some of my writings got published and won prizes.

English is the language in which I received my education and which I use in my daily life. I obtained an IELTS score of 8/9. We can focus on speaking, reading and listening skills as well as writing skills. I can provide knowledge in daily English and business English.

Hi there! I'm Ezgi. I have a degree in Turkish Language and Literature from Marmara University. I have my master degree in Educational Administration and Supervision at Yıldız Technical University. I have been teaching Turkish for 11 years in Istanbul. I started to teach when I was studying the Turkish Language and Literature and I also have taught Turkish to foreign students that are studying in Turkey.I have worked with teenagers, adults and seniors from different countries.
You may think that it is difficult because Turkish is an agglutinative language. In my classes you will change your mind because I use authentic and useful materials and different approaches and methods. Students are active, eager and self- confident in my class. I can help you with pronunciation, vocabulary and grammar to improve your speaking skills.
If you can speak Turkish but have some difficulties with pronunciation you can join my class. I just speak Turkish in my classes. (and of course my students too :) )

The lessons could be online or in my student's house or office. After lessons, I send e-mails when it's necessary. That word file includes a vocabulary list, sentences (corrected and uncorrected versions, you can compare both of them easily), grammar points, and homework for revision.
If you want to speak Turkish well, please contact me.

I'm a Turkish language and literature major who's been teaching Turkish since 2018. Turkish is my native language but I also speak English very fluently.

My Turkish lessons are based on the communicative approach but I also believe a solid knowledge of grammar is very important. So I adopt a good mix of the two!

Teaching in Spanish: This is the educational process that uses Spanish as the primary language of communication and learning. It allows the development of linguistic skills, critical thinking, and cultural understanding in more than 20 countries where Spanish is an official language.
Furthermore, it facilitates access to knowledge, promotes cultural identity, and fosters communication in academic and professional contexts.
My name is Amira and I am a Spanish and French teacher. I have over 10 years of experience teaching children and young people of different levels. My main goal is to support my students in improving their reading, writing, comprehension, and oral expression in both Spanish and French.
I use dynamic and participatory methods such as debates, reading, and activities to make classes interesting and easy to understand.
With me, you will learn both languages with love and fluency using books from the Aula Internacional edition. We will cover grammar, vocabulary, and conjugation. We will do written exercises with books from the Edelsa edition and oral exercises. We will also watch short films and listen to songs with the goal of learning new words and verbs and being able to memorize them easily.
