your turkish speaking best friend :D I'm Leyla, an artist and language enthusiast! I grew up in Istanbul, and for the past few years I lived in a forest campground located on the route of thousands years old pilgrimage trail Lycian Way, where I focused on art and a slower, nature-oriented life. Currently, I am living in Brazil continuing my art practices, exploring culture, language and nature here <3 My native language is Turkish, I speak English and Greek; studied Modern Greek Language and Literature at Istanbul University (Πάντα χαίρομαι να γνωρίζω ελληνόφωνους!), and I am an independent language learner studying Russian, German, and Portuguese. On conversation based lessons, I ask general questions to get you speaking. As we get to know each other, we can focus on topics that match your interests. I am a curious person overall so I'll easily come up with questions to keep you talking. My goal is to help you feel comfortable speaking Turkish. Make mistakes, take your time, and express yourself freely. For the structured Turkish lessons I follow a traditional textbook, implementing speaking practices, trying to set a friendly environment to combat our childhood language learning traumas :D I suggest vocabulary when needed and help with sentence structure and pronunciation. Let me know how much correction you prefer—your comfort is my priority. If you want to focus on something specific, please let me know in advance. And if you want to book but can’t find a suitable time slot, feel free to contact.

Leyla completely transformed my Turkish speaking ability over the course of a few months. When I started lessons with her, I struggled to speak with confidence, always stuttering and hesitating and second-guessing myself, often giving up mid-sentence in exasperation. It was also a great struggle to understand what I was hearing in a conversation; I’d get stuck on one word and then lose the trail of the rest of the sentence. Now, thanks to Leyla, I am able to effortlessly comprehend and express myself confidently in ways I never thought I’d be able to. Leyla makes you feel totally comfortable while challenging you to expand your linguistic capabilities. Class with her feels like chatting with an old friend, but one who is really dedicated to strengthening your language skills. Thank you Leyla!!

After a few months of lessons, I'm quite amazed how much I've learnt ☺️ Most of all, the lessons and the exercises are fun to me, but Leyla is like a good gym trainer who finds ways to make you do three more push-ups & go the extra mile. She has a great understanding of how languages work & what nuances you should pay attention to, she can find examples from other languages to explain what a word means *exactly* & while she'll find you tons of fun extras & challenges, she's also responsible & reliable which I also appreciate a lot! I'm very grateful for this learning experience 😍

She was patience with pronunciation and reiterating the practice sentences when I would stutter on words.
