I have been a student of Dr. Baris for over four years. With his PhD and background as an academic journal editor, he is arguably one of the best teachers for academic proofreading on this platform. Under his guidance, I have significantly improved my academic writing and interview skills and have gained the confidence to speak English in public.

I am a PhD student and am required to write in English as part of my studies. Learning with Baris has significantly improved my academic writing in a short time. He has helped me acquire the skills, knowledge and confidence needed for academic work. A few weeks after I started working with him, Baris helped me write a paper for submission to an international academic conference, and it was accepted. Currently, he is helping me edit an article I plan to publish. Baris is patient, motivating and engaging; every lesson with him is a pleasure. I highly recommend Baris to anyone who wants to improve their English. I am grateful to be working with him and couldn't have asked for a better teacher.

Baris est très pédagogue, il a su s'adapter à mon niveau ainsi qu'à ma personnalité. Je suis ravie de cette leçon d'essai et je vais acheter un pack de 20 leçons très rapidement afin de pouvoir avancer dans ma démarche d'apprentissage de l'anglais.

I highly recommend Dr. Baris T., who has been helping me improve my English for more than a year with patience and professionalism. His teaching is very conscientious, and at the same time he is friendly, that helps the learner speak more confidently. The topics of each lesson are carefully chosen according to my interests. I also appreciate his academic background, which allows him to discuss a wide range of topics and ask very relevant questions.
