Hello everyone, I am going to be creating 5 minutes podcasts everyday from the beginning and each class, I will teach you basic Turkish. If you do not know where to start, give this a shot, cheers!

5 minutes Turkish everyday

Hello! in this channel, I am going to read small texts and you can have some listening. Each text will have some quiz, don't forget to try and answer the questions after you are done with listening :)

Reading in Turkish

I thought that it would be a good idea to read some of the Turkish poems for those who are interested in Turkish literature
If you would like to read the poems text to me and I will send them to you!

Şiirler/Poems 

In this episode, I make some observations about different conversational styles among native and non-native English speakers. I am generalizing, of course, and these are just my thoughts, based on what I've experienced in my life. *

I'd love to hear what YOU think! What have you observed? 

Here are some questions you might want to talk to yourself or write about - as we reflect on the year that has ended. Maybe you want to create a short monologue by recording your thoughts in a voice memo on your phone. Or perhaps you could try writing down your ideas on your phone or on a piece of paper. Do it for 5 or 10 minutes, and don't worry about your grammar or vocabulary. Writing is a great PROCESS - an exercise where you can use your English - anywhere, anytime, without a teacher or a listener. So getting in the HABIT of writing or speaking to yourself is as important as the words you use. Over time, your skills will improve! 

---- QUESTIONS TO ANSWER -----

What does the word SUCCESS mean to you? 
What does SUCCESS LOOK LIKE to you? 
What is something you have SUCCEEDED AT?

Based on YOUR definition of success - what made 2023 a successful year for you?
What will make 2024 a successful year for you? 

And here's a THOUGHT EXPERIMENT and a WRITING EXERCISE.
Imagine it is December 31, 2024. Using past tenses, write about what made 2024 a successful year for you. (This may feel strange, but it’s a great exercise for your English and for your mind! It can be fun and transformative, too!)

-------

*Note - In this episode, I make the mistake of using the word "American" to refer to people from the US. This is a bad habit that I am (still) trying to break. The truth is that we are all Americans in the whole hemisphere - North and South. But, as they say, "old habits die hard" or existing patterns are hard to change.

You know, before you dive into any new structure of learning, it’s super important to ask all the WHYS. Be curious! Find out the reasons behind a grammatical rule, a sentence structure, or even the way a word is pronounced. Trust me, when you know the reasons why something is presented the way it is, it becomes so much easier to remember and use in conversation and writing.

Think of it like building a house. You need a solid foundation of bricks even though you might just see the pretty, colorful windows. Behind every beautiful house is a strong foundation of bricks, which once laid, cannot be removed. It’s the same with language. Once you know the reasons behind the rules, you’re stuck with them in a good way!
