Turkish & English lessons | BA & MA in ELT / ESL | PhD (Philosophy of Education) | 16+ Years Teaching Experience

From 39 € /h

You can take English or Turkish lessons tailored to your personal goals, level, and learning pace. My classes are designed for learners who want clear structure, meaningful practice, and steady progress, rather than random conversation or textbook-only lessons.

*** Turkish lessons ***

As a native Turkish speaker with strong academic training in language teaching, I help learners understand not only what to say, but also why the language works the way it does. In my lessons, I address not only language form, but also the cultural and pragmatic aspects of Turkish as used in everyday communication. My lessons bring together native-speaker intuition and academically grounded language-teaching expertise. Turkish lessons are offered as Turkish as a foreign/second language and are especially suitable for non-native speakers. Lessons focus on:

✔ Speaking for daily and professional situations
✔ Clear and systematic explanations of grammar
✔ Vocabulary development in meaningful context
✔ Cultural and pragmatic aspects of Turkish

*** English lessons ***

With a BA and MA degree in English Language Teaching (ELT) / English as a Second Language (ESL) and over 16 years of teaching experience, I support learners in developing accurate, confident, and effective use of English. My lessons are informed by contemporary approaches to second language learning and focus on helping learners understand not only how to use English, but also why it is used in certain ways across different contexts.

Lessons integrate form, meaning, and use, combining clear explanation with active practice. Drawing on my academic background in language education, I design lessons that are structured, goal-oriented, and responsive to individual learning needs. English lessons are suitable for learners at different levels and are particularly well suited for adult learners, university students, and professionals. Lessons focus on:

■ Developing speaking fluency and confidence for daily, academic, and professional communication
■ Clear and systematic explanations of grammar, applied directly in meaningful contexts
■ Vocabulary development through authentic and purposeful use
■ Academic and professional writing skills, with structured guidance and targeted feedback
■ Pronunciation and clarity to support natural and effective communication

*** How the lessons (both Turkish & English) work:

➤ The first lesson includes a needs analysis and a brief level check to identify your goals and current proficiency.
➤ Lessons follow a clear structure while remaining flexible and responsive to your progress and needs.
➤ Active practice is central to every session, ensuring continuous engagement and effective learning.
➤ Targeted feedback is provided during and after lessons to support steady improvement.
➤ Optional, time-efficient homework may be included to reinforce learning between sessions.

*** Who these lessons (both Turkish & English) are for:

◆ Adult learners and university students who want purposeful and structured language learning.
◆ Professionals who need Turkish or English for work-related communication.
◆ Learners who prefer a structured and systematic second language learning process that integrates modern language-learning strategies with practical application.
◆ Students who value depth, clarity, and strong academic grounding in their lessons.
◆ Young learners and students who needs help in their studies/homework.

*** If you are looking for thoughtful, well-structured language lessons with a strong pedagogical foundation, these classes are designed for you.

About Me

I am an academically trained language teacher with a BA and MA in English Language Teaching and a PhD in Philosophy of Education. I have over 16 years of teaching experience, working with learners from primary school to university level, as well as adult learners.

My teaching style is structured, supportive, and learner-centered. I believe effective language learning happens when students clearly understand what they are learning and why. For this reason, my lessons combine clear explanations, active practice, and targeted feedback.

I enjoy working with motivated learners who value clarity, depth, and meaningful progress. I particularly like teaching adults, university students, and professionals, but I also support younger learners who need help with their studies or homework. My goal is to help students build confidence, accuracy, and independence in their learning.

This course is designed for both complete beginners and professionals who want to improve their Chinese for real-life communication or business purposes.

As a native Mandarin speaker with clear and standard pronunciation, I will help you build a strong foundation in speaking, listening, and understanding Chinese in a practical and efficient way.

For beginners, we will start from the basics, including pronunciation (Pinyin), essential vocabulary, and simple sentence structures. You will quickly gain the ability to introduce yourself, handle daily conversations, and understand commonly used expressions.

For intermediate or business learners, the course can be tailored to your specific needs, such as workplace communication, meetings, emails, and cultural understanding in Chinese business contexts.

My teaching style is flexible, interactive, and focused on real communication rather than memorizing textbooks. Lessons are adapted to your goals, whether you want to travel, study, work, or communicate confidently with Chinese speakers.
