Leyla completely transformed my Turkish speaking ability over the course of a few months. When I started lessons with her, I struggled to speak with confidence, always stuttering and hesitating and second-guessing myself, often giving up mid-sentence in exasperation. It was also a great struggle to understand what I was hearing in a conversation; I’d get stuck on one word and then lose the trail of the rest of the sentence. Now, thanks to Leyla, I am able to effortlessly comprehend and express myself confidently in ways I never thought I’d be able to. Leyla makes you feel totally comfortable while challenging you to expand your linguistic capabilities. Class with her feels like chatting with an old friend, but one who is really dedicated to strengthening your language skills. Thank you Leyla!!

After a few months of lessons, I'm quite amazed how much I've learnt ☺️ Most of all, the lessons and the exercises are fun to me, but Leyla is like a good gym trainer who finds ways to make you do three more push-ups & go the extra mile. She has a great understanding of how languages work & what nuances you should pay attention to, she can find examples from other languages to explain what a word means *exactly* & while she'll find you tons of fun extras & challenges, she's also responsible & reliable which I also appreciate a lot! I'm very grateful for this learning experience 😍

She was patience with pronunciation and reiterating the practice sentences when I would stutter on words.

Leyla is always awesome and fun to make conversation with. She has very good and helpful teaching skills along with being an awesome person in general and interesting person to talk to.

My first lesson with Leyla was really enjoyable. She is a very friendly and supportive teacher, and I really liked the focus on conversation and expanding my vocabulary.

Thank you for such an interesting conversation during our lesson, for all new words and information that I’ve learnt! 😊
