About Me
italki teacher since Jan 26, 2020
Hello, my name is Erol & I am from Istanbul. My main passion in life is language's. My native language is Turkish. However I am also fluent in English, I studied the language for ten years . I now feel completely comfortable speaking both languages & I have integrated them both into my day to day life. I also speak German and Italian at an intermediate level. My other interests are literature, history, travel, sports, music & current events. I am currently studying Material Engineering at University. I love to interact with people & I am what you describe as a "people person". Due to my outgoing nature, I believe tutoring Turkish is the perfect role for me.
Me as a Teacher
I prefer to take a flexible and interactive approach to my lessons. I believe it is important to tailor the lessons to your specific needs and wishes. I feel it is in the best interest of the student to build the classes around you, rather than force a strict and inflexible teaching structure. During our first class we will discuss your aims, preferences and current level. Using this information I will evaluate the best way to proceed with our tutoring journey. I have many different methods, sources and styles of teaching so we can create the perfect environment for you. One of my main goals for our lessons is that you see me as a friend and can be comfortable during our classes.
My lessons & teaching style
I prefer to take a practical and direct approach to language learning. My main objective is to boost your confidence and eliminate any fear you have of speaking the language. I want to help you become familiar with the pronunciation, grammar, diction, rhythm and sounds within the Turkish language. I want to quash the perception that learning another language is difficult and show you useful ways to improve your Turkish abilities. I welcome students with any level of previous experience. I cater to a wide range of levels, from beginner all the way up to fluent speakers. I can offer you both conversational & grammatical based lessons and we can easily incorporate them both into every lesson.
Harika bir enerjik ders! We covered a variety of different things during the hour: some cultural, some grammatical, and all very interesting and practical. Çok teşekkürler, Erol. Ģöruşmek üzere!

This was the coolest lesson! I could connect with Erol on many levels and hope I’ll finally be able to speak Turkish myself thanks to his help!

The best level of English of all Turks I met! He speaks several languages and he helped express me express myself correctly! He explains things clearly in Turkish or in English and is a very pleasant teacher. If you want to take your Turkish to the next level, then practice as much as you can, and if you need advice and tips, he explains complex grammar easily!

It was nice to meet Erol and start learning a little bit of Turkish straight away. Hopefully we'll have more lessons soon.
