Hello! I’m Yunus Emre, a Turkish language instructor working with students from many different countries around the world. I offer lessons that focus on speaking skills, supported by structured materials such as books and videos, helping you use the language correctly and naturally.

With more than 4 years of experience, I know that every learner has their own pace and goals. That’s why I tailor each lesson to your specific needs. For beginners, I provide clear and simple explanations; for advanced learners, we focus on fluency, vocabulary development, and improving expression in everyday situations.

During our lessons, we also talk about Turkish culture, lifestyle, and common expressions, making the learning process more enjoyable and meaningful. I always aim to create a supportive environment that encourages you to speak without fear of making mistakes.

Whether your goal is travel, work, daily communication, or improving your fluency, I would be happy to create a personalized learning plan for you. Together, we can develop your Turkish in a structured and enjoyable way.

I look forward to meeting you in our first lesson!

What are your goals?
Let's work together hand in hand to achieve them!

In my lessons...

📕🇯🇵 “Is textbook Japanese different from real Japanese?”
Sometimes it is! The textbook phrase “つまらないものですが” (“It's nothing special, but...”) is now outdated. Instead, ‘気に入ってくれるとうれしいです’ (“I'd be happy if you like it”) sounds more natural and leaves a better impression ☺️ You'll enjoy learning this kind of “real Japanese.”
🇯🇵🗾 How do you say “How are you?” in Japanese?
What should you say for casual greetings?
I'll gently explain cultural backgrounds and how to read emotions, making Japanese communication more enjoyable and understandable.
3 Create natural sentences with fun topics!
“Conjunctions are tough...” “Is this phrasing correct?”
When you feel that way, let's create sentences using fun themes!
“My Favorite Things” or “My Dreams”
With unique practice like this, you'll naturally pick up Japanese expressions.
4 Your Personal Feedback Notebook
During lessons, I'll correct the words you speak into natural, correct Japanese and write them in your notebook. Hiragana included if needed. Reading them aloud after lessons ensures you truly master usable Japanese.
I specialize in lessons that are “gentle, polite, fun, and bright.” Students often tell me, “I feel more confident!” and “I enjoy speaking now!” Let's level up your Japanese together using a learning style that suits you!

This class is for anyone interested in learning Bahasa Indonesia and getting to know more about daily life and traditions in Indonesia. I’ll share the language the way we use it in real conversations, along with cultural notes that make it more meaningful.

You don’t need to worry about being perfect—we can start from simple phrases and slowly build up together. Along the way, I’ll also share little stories, expressions, and cultural habits that I’ve grown up with.

Colonial cities in Indonesia were shaped by political, economic, and cultural imperatives of empire. This course combines rigorous historical analysis with in-situ field learning, inviting international learners to experience colonial urban history through direct observation of city form, heritage architecture, and spatial organization.

Rather than abstract narratives or rote memorization, our approach treats cities as living texts. Students study how colonial authorities designed urban space for trade, governance, and control, and how these spatial logics endure in the modern city.

The class offers a hybrid blend of classroom discussion, archival interpretation, and guided urban walks in historically significant sites such as old town districts, port precincts, colonial administrative centers, and transportation infrastructure. Participants will explore heritage buildings, street patterns, canals, and rail alignments—observing how power was inscribed into the urban fabric.

Learning resources include historical maps, planning documents, photographs, and Dutch-language sources, combined with structured field observations to enhance analytical skills. Field sessions are designed not only to illustrate concepts discussed in class but to immerse students in the material realities of colonial urbanism.

By engaging with both documentary archives and urban environments, students will gain a deeper appreciation of how colonial spatial strategies were implemented and how their legacies shape contemporary Indonesian cities. This course is ideal for students, researchers, heritage professionals, and culturally curious travelers interested in urban history, architecture, and colonial studies.
