About Me
italki teacher since May 21, 2021Interest topicHistoryTravelArtFilms & TV SeriesReading
I am a professional Turkish teacher with a degree in Turkish Language and Literature and 7+ years of experience. I have worked voluntarily in high schools, private language schools, government programs and for Syrian refugees. I love my job because I find it fascinating to observe people developing a new language.Me as a Teacher
Regarding to my previous experiences, I am certain that personal mind set is very important on learning Turkish. Grammar is important for a proper use, but to improve, people have to use more fluent stuff on speaking.
I speak about my and students' daily routines, dreams & objectives, memories.. like we are close friends
.. These kind of things are very important to get involved to the culture and meanings.My lessons & teaching style
I have a proven system from beginner to advanced level, also 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&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 needs: Dialogues, Q / A; mini documentaries, mostly used for grammars.My teaching material

I've been trying to learn Turkish for a long time, and I've FINALLY found the right teacher for me! Tuba is not only methodical and reliable, but also kind and encouraging. She has the right combination of qualities to keep me motivated and moving forward.

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!
