Hi! I’m Sibel, a certified language teacher based in Istanbul—though I spend much of the year teaching online while traveling, mostly in Latin America. I've visited nearly 50 countries, and language has been my favorite passport along the way.
I hold a degree in English Language and Literature and a CELTA. I teach English, Spanish, and Turkish with a passion for cultural connection. Learning languages has shaped who I am—helping me connect with people, music, books, and ideas from around the world.
If you're ready to make learning a joyful journey, I’d love to join you.
Let’s begin!
I’m a passionate, certified language teacher with over 10 years of experience, whose journey began in Peru. Teaching there shaped my approach and deepened my love for cultural exchange. My students appreciate my balance of professionalism and a friendly, relaxed atmosphere. I’m fluent in English and Spanish, which helps me connect deeply with learners. Whether you’re a beginner or advanced, I create lessons that are clear, practical, and enjoyable. Let’s make learning effective and fun together!
Learning a language shouldn’t feel like a chore—it should be a journey you enjoy. That’s why I always focus on understanding you: your goals, interests, and learning style. Each lesson is tailored to be fun, practical, and engaging, combining clear explanations with plenty of speaking practice. Whether you want to improve grammar or become more fluent, my approach balances structure and spontaneity. Toge...
Sibel is an amazing teacher, I can't wait to book more lessons and become a regular student to get fluent in Turkish! I'm a false beginner in Turkish (I used to be very good at it...10 years ago!) and thought I had forgotten almost all of it, and that I would have to start from scratch all over again. But Sibel trusted my skills and challenged me with fun topics, questions, grammar and "woke up" a lot of vocabulary I thought I had forgotten. I also appreciated that I was invited to think how to say things in Turkish, instead of defaulting to English as a comfort zone, while the entire time the environment felt really safe, friendly and warm! Thank you Sibel and see you soon!

Sibel is one of the best language teachers I have ever had! She comes prepared for every lesson with an organized lesson plan and is great with providing supporting materials after class. She has achieved the perfect pedagogical balance between providing learning content and encouragement. Her energy and humour is infectious and makes learning Turkish a lot of fun!

Sibel is one of the best language teachers I have had, after learning more than 9 languages over a decade. She encourages you to use what you've learned and actually speak the language! Her lessons are fun and interactive, and if you learn quickly, she can also make them more productive and challenging. She is always very energetic and positive in our classes. I cannot recommend a teacher more than Sibel.
