Merhaba, 안녕하세요, Hello!
I have always loved learning languages. My interest in learning foreign languages began at a very early age with my interest in archeology, history and different cultures. While working as a research assistant at the university, I improved my German language skills abroad where I did my doctoral research. While doing doctoral research, I realized that translating from different languages to my native language is more than just an amateur interest in playing with words. Thus, a while after returning to my country, I matriculated in the Department of Translation and Interpretation at one of the prestigious universities. I have been working as a translator ever since.Me as a Teacher
Based on the experience gained from working as an academic at one of the prestigious universities, I will plan each lesson according to the students’ needs and progress.
As a passionate language learner, I would be happy to help you with your Turkish learning journey.My lessons & teaching style
In the grammar lesson, I will teach basic Turkish grammar from A0 level to A2 level within the framework of a specific curriculum.
In the conversation lesson, you will learn to speak natural Turkish. Intonation is very important in Turkish; in fact, it can even change the meaning of a word. Additionally, we often use facial expressions and gestures while speaking. Last but not least, we Turks enjoy having conversations, from casual chats to deep discussions. We even have a famous proverb about this: “Gönül sohbet ister, kahve bahane.” :)My teaching material

Very nice lesson! Dr.Elif always adapts to what is important for me to learn. The speaking practice is motivating because you get to talk and try out the vocabulary with no pressure and lots of fun!
