Hi! My name is Şeyda, and I am super excited to meet you here on Italki! Here are some things about myself that you probably would like to know before our first lesson. I am a native Turkish speaker. I would like to think I am a very open-minded person, and I love to talk to people about their culture and life experiences. I live in Istanbul. In my free times, I like cooking and doing sport.

Me as a Teacher
Firstly, please don't be nervous! I'm here to help you practice your Turkish conversation skills and it's my job to try to make you feel comfortable and enjoy the class. I take a very friendly and laid back approach to my teaching.
I try to offer an informal, safe, encouraging, supportive environment where you can build you confidence and fluency in Turkish without worrying about being judged. I'm happy to make corrections, but it's always done in a gentle way.
I'm friendly, warm and a good listener. I ensure that we always have things to talk about, but I'm also very happy to let you lead the conversation.
My lessons & teaching style
Learning or practicing a language, whether you’re a beginner or you’re experienced, can seem very scary and intimidating sometimes. I want to create a stress-free environment for you by offering fun, casual, and flexible Turkish conversation lessons. I want my lessons to feel like you’re having a nice chat with a friend over coffee:)

Şeyda is a very good teacher and has been very well prepared with each and every lesson we've had. Her teaching style has been way different from any other teacher I've learned from on this platform. She is fast pace and on point. She doesn't allow the student to veer off topic very long without reeling you back in place. Very little English is used and her style forces you to be evolve and interact. My very first thoughts with our first lesson was that this would not be a very productive way of learning. Well I was wrong and now after a few lessons I feel it might be the bast method for my learning.

That was amazing! Şeyda helped me organize my lesson notes so I can learn more effectively at home. I can see how I get better day by day. Having classes every day was a great idea for sure)
