At first, I did not really sure it’s gonna work by learning through online. When I got 3 trial class when I start using this app and I tried 3 teacher. Teacher Merve is one of them. After I did a trial class with teacher Merve, I only book classes with her. Teacher Merve shows me the holes in my English such as the way I speak with people is too formal which it is not good for dealing with some people and putting wrong proposition in the wrong place and using new vocabulary that I not normally use in daily life. I could feel my English improving day after day after I start study with teacher Merve. Thank you, ma’am. If somebody asks me to rate teacher Merve 1 to 5 I give her a rating 10. If somebody is thinking about trying a class with teacher Merve. Trust me you won't regret it.

我們的上課內容老師會先簡單對話後找出我對話中的錯誤 接著會挑選今天我有興趣的上課主題 再從主題當中學習到新的單字以及使用方法或者是俚語 整體來說很有趣是能夠感受到時間飛速的結束 老師會訂正我的口音 避免因為發音不夠清楚而無法與人溝通 但會在總結時在調整而不是對話中突然終止修正 這比較能夠將整個對話完整敘述完畢 是值得信賴以及推薦的英語老師 The content of our class involves the teacher first having a simple conversation and then identifying the mistakes in my dialogue. Next, the teacher selects a topic I'm interested in for today's lesson, and from that topic, I learn new vocabulary, usage methods, or idioms. Overall, it is very interesting, and I can feel that time flies by quickly. The teacher corrects my accent to avoid communication issues due to unclear pronunciation, but these corrections are made during the summary rather than interrupting the conversation abruptly. This allows for a complete narration of the discussion. The teacher is trustworthy and highly recommended for learning English.

What I appreciate most about Merve is her approach to each lesson. No matter how varied the topics I choose are, she always comes up with thoughtful, engaging questions that spark real discussion and help me improve my communication skills. She clearly prepares for every session, and her questions are always relevant to the subject I've picked. On top of that, she is remarkably patient and genuinely cares about her students. Our weekly speaking practice has become something I look forward to, and I couldn't recommend her more.

Another absolutely amazing English lesson with Merve! 🌟 Every class with her reminds me how important it is to have a great teacher. Merve is always well-prepared, positive, and creates an atmosphere where speaking English feels enjoyable and natural. Her feedback and corrections are among the best I have ever received – clear, specific, and highly motivating. Thanks to her, I can see my progress and feel more confident every time I speak. The lesson was interesting, fun, and passed by incredibly quickly. I’m already looking forward to our next session!
