Fun Turkish Language Lessons from a Literature Student

I am a Literature Master's Student in Leiden University with a background in tutoring, translation and editing in Turkish-English dialects and texts as well as academic exams like IELTS.

As I continue my degree, I would like to teach the wonderful Turkish language to those interested.

The courses will be given in English and we will be creating a schedule to fit your needs. From daily small talk to grammar, from alphabet to business dialect, all will be suited to your needs and wants.

My main purpose is to open up the pathway to connection through languages and cultures.

The course can be given to up to 8 people. More would be hard to keep up.

Hope to talk to you soon!

Best,
Zeynep

About Me

Life is full of little things, and in my opinion, one of the best ways to enjoy it is to learn more. Everyday, anything, any time.
I am in the process of finding my path and as I am doing that, maybe you can help me help you gain a new language.

Turkish is a mixture of European (mostly French), Arabic and Farsi languages, and it is an interesting one. To understand the complicated Turkish culture, I invite you to get to know the language first.

Education

Comparative Literature, Bachelor's Degree, Bilgi University
Literature, Bachelor's Degree, Roehampton University

Saer
30 Hours Learning & Speaking program (Formal, Levantine, Gulf)
Hello everyone, I'm Thaer, a specialized teacher in Arabic (Formal, Levantine, Gulf) & Turkish language. With over 10 years of experience teaching Arabic in Lebanon, Turkey and UAE, I've helped NGOs, journalists, and embassy staff swiftly grasp the language for effective local interaction and business. Additionally, I've supported young learners in understanding Arabic's structure, laying a strong foundation. Most common questions I receive: What dialects do you teach? I teach Formal Arabic (Fus’ha) in addition to Levantine and Gulf dialects. Which one should I choose? It depends on your needs. If you are solely interested in speaking, then I recommend Levantine or Gulf dialects. If you aim to master Arabic comprehensively, then Formal Arabic (Fus’ha) would be more suitable. What is the 30-hour program? The 30-hour program is designed to help you achieve conversational fluency and effectively express yourself and your needs. What comes after the 30 hours? If you are enrolled in the Dialects course, we will continue refining your speaking skills and expanding your vocabulary during lessons. Additionally, new words will be introduced during conversation sessions to aid in memorization and usage within sentences. For those on the Formal Arabic (Fus’ha) track, we will delve deeper into grammar and further develop your understanding of the language. How many hours a week do you recommend? I recommend 2 to 3 sessions per week. Can I learn Formal Arabic (Fus’ha) and one of the dialects simultaneously? Yes, you can take 2 lessons in Formal Arabic (Fus’ha) and 1 lesson in a dialect concurrently, as many of my students do.

Hello, I'm Güven, a 29-year-old certified English and native Turkish teacher from Turkey.

For beginners, I offer an opportunity to use your existing vocabulary while learning grammar and sentence formation. As we progress, lessons will adapt to your development and specific needs. If you're advanced, we'll focus on enhancing areas such as grammar, writing, listening, or other skills. Our lessons, regardless of your proficiency, prioritize interactivity over theory. Additionally, I'm dedicated to supporting your learning beyond our sessions with homework assignments, including PDFs and videos. These resources aim to reinforce the words and structures we cover in class. With a passion for teaching and language learning, I integrate cultural exchange into our lessons. Understanding Turkish culture is vital for a comprehensive grasp of the language. Learning a language goes beyond words; it involves immersing yourself in the culture to comprehend the people and their perspectives.
