About Me
italki teacher since Dec 24, 2021Me as a Teacher
I had my TEFL degree in two different colleges; The Middle East Technical University and The State University of New York-New Paltz, where I had the opportunity to teach English to immigrant children in Poughkeepsie G.W Krieger Elementary in New York, as well as, to gifted Turkish high schoolers at METU College in Ankara.
I had my IELTS Teaching Certification from IELTS Australia and it can be provided upon request.
My approach is to simplify IELTS for everyone and give students the honest truth about how to get the scores they need. I am fully aware that every individual learns at a different pace and in a different style.My lessons & teaching style
In our trial lesson, I will analyze your learning styles with the questionnaire created by Richard M. Felder at NCSU so that I can design our lessons in the most efficient way possible. We're going to talk about your IELTS goals and the preparation process and how you are going to be marked to avoid wasting time and money by repeating the test.
I dynamically analyze your weak areas and tailor every lesson to overcome them with engaging materials.
Please, don't hesitate to ask me anything about the IELTS test, and have a wonderful day.My teaching material
