English for life; fluency and fun, testing and perfecting

Von 31.67 $ /Std

I hold a Cambridge CELTA and an IOA 120hour TESL certificate (the latter required for my online teaching job). I have a degree in Politics from the University of Leeds, UK.

I have been teaching for over ten years, seven of which have been preparing students for PET and FCE Cambridge Exams. I have accompanied students each step of the way from the beginning of the course until the exam, including exam prep courses.

I pride myself in my skills to build rapport. Creating an atmosphere where students feel comfortable and confident is key to maximising learning outcomes and communication skills. I have mostly worked with teenagers and young adults, but have plenty of experience with all ages and all levels. I love working with people!

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!

This chapter explains the Arabic language curriculum for the Gulf countries in a simplified and comprehensive way suitable for all student levels. The lesson employs modern teaching methods that combine detailed explanations with direct interaction with students, focusing on building their language skills in reading, writing, listening, and speaking.

My passion for teaching Arabic stems from my deep belief in its importance as part of our cultural identity, and my desire to help students understand its grammar and enjoy its beauty. I use motivational methods to engage students in the lesson, such as interactive quizzes, practical examples, and engaging short stories that touch on their daily lives.

In this lesson, students will learn to analyze and understand texts accurately, along with grammar and syntax skills in an organized and easy way. I also make sure to enhance their self-confidence through practical applications and exercises that support repetition and practice.

I aim to make Arabic a fun subject rather than a challenge, and I work to provide a positive learning environment that helps students reach their full potential. In addition, I provide personalized advice to each student to improve their level according to their individual needs.

This lesson is not just an explanation of the course, but rather a journey to discover the beauty of the Arabic language and communicate effectively through it.
