Meet Our Teacher
I am here to guide you on your Turkish learning journey. Just like you, I left my home country to learn a new language, first moving to London and then settling in Canada. Having lived in Canada for the past two years, I've experienced firsthand what it means to learn a new language and adapt to a new culture. This has given me a unique perspective on how to teach a language in a way that is both effective and enjoyable.
In Türkiye, I gained valuable experience teaching Turkish grammar and mathematics to students from elementary to high school, and I am now excited to share that expertise with international students. My academic background includes a degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from Kahramanmaraş Sütçü İmam University, and I have also completed a Business Management program here in Canada.
We will tailor our lessons entirely to your goals, whether you wish to master academic texts or become fluent in everyday conversation.
I look forward to meeting you and starting our lessons together!
