In my lessons, I adopt a flexible and interactive approach tailored to each student's level and learning goals. I first understand why the student wants to learn Turkish—whether for travel, business, academic purposes, or daily conversations—and design a roadmap accordingly.

I follow a communication-based teaching style, focusing on helping my students use the language actively. Rather than memorizing grammar rules, I guide them through real-life dialogues and practical examples to help them learn naturally and confidently.

To make the lessons engaging and dynamic, I use a variety of resources such as visuals, short videos, songs, articles, and interactive exercises. I also apply simple quizzes or conversation practices to monitor their progress and boost their confidence.

For beginner-level students, I emphasize repetition and vocabulary building. For intermediate and advanced learners, I focus on improving fluency, pronunciation, and written expression.

I actively use online platforms and collaborative tools like Google Docs, Quizlet, and Padlet to encourage student participation during the lessons. These tools allow us to create real-time learning materials and make lessons more interactive.

Thanks to my previous experiences in business and human resources, I’ve had the chance to work with people from diverse backgrounds. This has helped me develop a patient, clear, and encouraging teaching style.

My goal is to create a positive and supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable and motivated while learning Turkish. I believe that language learning should be enjoyable, practical, and empowering.
