Hello! My name is Hale. I’m a passionate English teacher from Turkey, and I currently live in Sofia, Bulgaria.. I’m 29 years old and speak English and Turkish fluently. I also speak German at an intermediate level and have recently started learning Portuguese. So I fully understand the excitement and challenges of learning a new language.
My journey with languages started early in life. I attended elementary school in Salzburg, Austria, where I was first exposed to immersive language learning. That experience shaped the way I teach today — through engaging, real-life use of language that’s both fun and effective.Me as a Teacher
I graduated from İnönü University with a degree in English Language Teaching and also completed my pedagogical formation training, which means I am fully qualified to teach with a strong foundation in educational theory and practice. I’ve been trained not only in language instruction, but also in how to support different learning styles, build confidence, and foster motivation in my students.
My classes are interactive, supportive, and adapted to your personal goals. Whether you want to improve your speaking skills, work on grammar, or prepare for a test, I will tailor our lessons to suit your needs. I aim to create a relaxed and encouraging environment where students feel safe to practice,My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are interactive, student-centered, and tailored to your goals. I focus on real-life communication, helping you build confidence in speaking while improving your grammar and vocabulary naturally.
We’ll use practical materials like articles, videos, and role-plays to keep lessons engaging and fun. I create a relaxed space where you can learn by using the language, not just studying it.My teaching material

Hello, friends! I just had my block class and it was so fun. We read, we learned new words and we studied grammar issues. Hale is the best teacher. She is very well involved and i really love the fact that she is preparing quality materials for our lessons. I warmly recommend her! 🥰

Hale is an energetic and friendly individual.
She prepared a lot for our first lesson to check my Turkish language proficiency and then made a plan for our future studies.
All in all, it was a very pleasant lesson with Hale 👍

It was an amazing lesson. I improved very quickly thanks to Hale’s teaching method. We practiced a lot, and she always explains the logic behind the language. This really helps me learn. She also explains not just the official rules, but how people actually speak in real life. I’ve already started speaking Turkish with others. I will definitely continue, and I highly recommend Hale as the best Turkish teacher!
