About Me
italki teacher since Jan 17, 2019InterestsMusicMedical & HealthcareTravel
Hi! I am a bilingual whose native languages are Kurdish and Turkish.
I graduated and worked as an engineer for several years but my passion for human interaction brought me to the field of teaching. However I always carry that analytical, systematic, disciplined, solution-oriented problem solver in me ;) 🤓
I come from a culture and a family for whom music is a form of daily spiritual practice and I play bağlama/tembûr and I sing. 🪕
Photography has always caught my interest, once I look through the lense, time stops for me. 📷
So far I've traveled to US, UK, Mexico, Colombia, Panama, Japan, Thailand, Malaysia, Lebanon, Georgia, Germany, Holland, Austria, Greece, Italy and Spain.Me as a Teacher
''Genius is 1% talent and 99% hard work'' Albert Einstein
Knowing that everyone is unique I have been designing engaging lessons based on; a) personal learning styles and b)personal necessities.
Education is an area that allows me to incorporate;
my values—to serve, to care, to improve, to create, to try the new, and to share.
my talents—teaching, empowering, creativity, and inspiring.
As a teacher what makes me unique is that I am very patient, compassionate, trusting and creative. I always push students out of their comfort zone towards their full potential.My lessons & teaching style
1) Through written and oral exam, understanding the level (Unless they are absolute beginners)
2) Set the tone for the course, make it clear that it takes effort, discipline and patience, again make it clear that it's the student 'who is supposed to talk' and it should be done 'in the language they are learning'
3) Pre-work before every class, homework after every class. Review at the end of every lesson and repetition in the beginning of the following lesson
4) Random vocabulary tests (puzzles, games or direc review) in every lesson
5) a) I decide a topic that interests the learner, build the necessary gramer around it along with questions, intense speaking practice.My teaching material

I have had around 5 classes for Kurmancî with Delal and I am very happy to have found her as a teacher. I have already learned a lot in these 5 lessons through the classes but also the homework she gave me. She is always well prepared and provides valuable insights into the language and culture. So all in all I can highly recommend it and look forward to our future sessions.
Gelek spas!

As always, Delal takes time to answer my my questions about the homework and then we work together to accomplish the topic. Always so supportive and encouraging! :)

Exceptionally good lesson. Delal used expressions from the article we were discussing, for me to use them in sentences. As I would not normally speak the way she first suggested , together we adapted the material for sentences I would use in conversation. I appreciated her flexibility. And noticed a lot of mistakes I was making! Very useful lesson. And interesting subject matter.
Delal doesn’t give me lesson plans, as she lets me decide what I want to talk about and uses the material I choose and (some of!) the mistakes I make as teaching material. Though this time she gave me some homework: to learn to conjugate a verb I kept getting wrong within the lesson!
