Ă propos de moi
Merhaba!
About me:
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, and I suppose I gained success. đ I have been teaching Turkish professionally for 14 years. I also taught Turkish for 4 years when I was a university student.
I learned Ottoman Turkish at the university, so I'm familiar with Persian and Arabic vocabulary. I also studied Persian, German, and Italian grammar.
I completed my master's degree in Ottoman history and spent a semester as an Erasmus student at the Turkish Studies Department of Leiden University.
I am interested in literature, cinema and TV series (nowadays Korean). I write books and movie analyses in my spare time.
Me as a Teacher:
I hold firm to two main principles: providing a comfortable environment and creating an encouraging atmosphere.
My students always tell me that I am patient, positive and well-organized. I consider I developed an aptitude for making learning Turkish much easier, more efficient and more practical.
My professionalism also allows me to tailor language education according to individual interests, needs, and capacities. I use a book prepared by a university in Turkey.
You will not hesitate to make mistakes. After a while, you will realize your mistakes and start to correct yourself.
Do you think that learning Turkish isn't easy? By progressing systematically in your learning journey, you will not feel the difficulties and will enjoy it.
My lessons & teaching style:
Even though I use a communicative approach, my lessons are supported by a solid knowledge of grammar because Turkish has a very different structure.
I use a book set that Istanbul University prepares. The course book is structured with a strategic approach to learning Turkish by using all the language skills: reading, grammar, writing, listening, watching, and speaking from A1 to C2. All these skills are essential for conversation.
The workbook includes many exercises for homework or revision. I support the book with my authentic materials. I use a board that you can see anytime and you can edit it, too.
I will share all the materials (books, audio, videos, authentic materials) with you according to your level.
Repetition-based speaking practice plays an important role in my lessons.
Important note:
In group lessons, for example, to complete level A1, you need to take approximately 120-150 hours of lessons. There are 5 levels in total in Turkish: A1-A2 level (basic), B1-B2 level (intermediate), C1+ (advanced).
By taking private lessons, you can complete all levels with an average of 2.5 times fewer lessons.
For example, I recommend that you complete a level such as A1 beginner level in an average of 3 months. Since there are 5 levels of books in total, you can complete the learning in an average of 15 months. Of course, I am telling all of this to show you how and how much of a learning plan you have.
This way, you can spend time and focus on Turkish and complete all levels with speaking practice.
One-on-one lessons on Verbling 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.
