Professional Turkish Teacher with 12+ Years of Experience I am a professional Turkish teacher with a degree in Turkish Language and Literature and have over 12 years of teaching experience. I have worked voluntarily in high schools as well as professionally in private language schools and government programs, and with Syrian refugees. I love my job because I find it fascinating to observe people developing a new language. Throughout my years of teaching, I have discovered that creating a personal connection to the language is very important for learning Turkish. While grammar is important for proper use, to truly improve further, regular conversation and speaking practice is essential. In my lessons, I often converse about mine and my students' daily routines, dreams, objectives, and memories - like we are close friends. These kind of exercises deepen our ability to connect our lives with the Turkish language. I have a proven system from the beginner to advanced level (A1 - C2). I can set a tailored class based on your needs such as daily use, business, short term touristic travel, etc. I measure the progress of the student and discuss the development points & focus areas. The tools and methods I use: - LANGUAGE OF THE SONGS: Learn the meanings, usage and connections via the fastest and most enjoyable way. - LANGUAGE OF THE EYE: Letter cards for situations, vocabulary and other memorization needs. - GRAMMAR EASY: Slides to make the tough grammar funny and easy to learn - WATCH & UNDERSTAND: Short videos for all kind of learning...

She explains everything very well! The textbooks and resources she uses are also extremely helpful. I enjoy my classes with her and it’s only been a couple classes but we’ve already done so much and are already on Unit 3! The classes are fun and I don’t even notice the time passing by! Tuba is an amazing teacher!
