About Me
italki teacher since Sep 1, 2022Interest topicMusicArtHistory
Hello! My name is Zeynep Özalpuk. I'm a graduate of Turkish and English Translation and Interpreting and I teach Turkish and English. I love sketching, playing guitar, and dancing. A few fun-fact about me are that I'm a cat person and my favorite musician is Tamino.
Language learning has always been a part of my life and as a Turkish-English teacher, I enjoy getting to share my language with people. I especially love meeting so many different people and seeing my students' growth.Me as a Teacher
My motto as a teacher is "the student won't enjoy learning unless the teacher enjoys teaching"
That's why I'd describe my teaching environment as friendly, flexible and engaging. I find that a friendly environment is most suitable for learning as well as keeping things interesting with engaging topics and materials.My lessons & teaching style
I prefer to use and get inspired by a range of materials such as free online learning sources, videos, question prompts, songs etc. because I find using the same format over and over can get boring easily. So, no repetetive text books!
For beginners, we start easy and steady by focusing on a few grammar points per lesson, seeing them in context and practicing.
For intermediate and above, we practice a wider range of topics per lesson.
For students preparing to take language examinations, we focus focus on the necessary vocabulary and advanced grammar.My teaching material

I really enjoy process of education with Zeynep. She is always bringigng fan facts about language and culture to the plate. That helps me in conversation practice, which is the most tuff for me. Her personality makes process less sharp and traumatic, leading me to speak a new language.

My first lesson is very fun. Tried few trial class to find a teacher that meet with my style of learning, and Zeynep it the one. Since English is not our 1st language, sometimes I find it hard to understand what other the pronounce, but I don't have this issue with her. She teach and keep the lesson entertaining. I definitely will continue learning for her. My search for a great teacher has come to the end. Thank you Zeynep.
