About Me
italki teacher since Mar 28, 2011
Merhaba! Hello! Turkish Learners From All Over the World! :)
I am a native Turkish speaker and certificated English Teacher. I have worked as an English teacher for various language teaching organizations and I have been teaching Turkish and English online and face-to face for all levels, for over five years.
I enjoy interacting with people from other cultures and sharing my culture as well. I have a lot of experience in teaching both Turkish and English online which includes over 5000 hours of online Turkish lessons. I also have IELTS and TESOL certifications. I hope you will consider taking a lesson with a teacher who is relaxed and easy-going because that's my style.
Me as a Teacher
I have always been fond of interacting with different people and discovering all the cultures in the world. Therefore my decision to continue my journey as a lifelong "LEARNER" caused me to become the "EDUCATOR" that I used to dream about.
What I really care about my lessons is the FLEXIBILITY in the teaching plan and the level of INTERACTION during the lessons. I immediately adapt to students' level in the first lessons and consistently analyze achievements throughout the lessons. I have perfected my teaching method of recreating the intimacy and efficacy of personal tutoring online.
Teaching Turkish is truly my passion and I look forward to hearing from you soon!
My lessons & teaching style
1-) I always aim to create a COMFORTABLE atmosphere where the students are encouraged to use daily, survival language phrases. Students acquire the critical vocabulary and grammar usage rules through the communicative and dynamic question/answer approach.
2-)LISTENING and SPEAKING are the most important skills throughout the lessons and therefore I always try to make my students speak in Turkish asking small, easy and encouraging questions that lead them to speak intuitively.
3-)I provide all the materials including digital language books in pdf format and audio materials in mp3 format before the lessons. I always plan homework activities in order to keep students' Turkish alive.

This October marks two years since I have been learning Turkish with Tarık and I am still amazed by how great a teacher he consistently is. I had a lot going on this year for various reasons and did not have much time to study, but my Turkish has improved greatly nonetheless. We use our class time very effectively, splitting the class into speaking and textbook grammar review. When I make a mistake, Tarık corrects me on the spot, writes the correction for me, and gives me time to absorb it and confirm that I understand the grammar rules in play. He seems to have an endless supply of patience in addition to always being punctual and prepared. I highly recommend him.

He is very nice and easy-going, easy to talk to. We had a nice flowing conversation covering a broad range of topics. However if you run out of things to talk about in general conversation, he is ready with a whole series of possible conversation topics, so he is well-prepared to hold conversation classes. I really enjoy chatting with him.
Since I am a teacher, we talked at length about school, the Turkish education system, comparing school systems in different countries, and I told him a lot about the school where I work.

A couple of months ago i started learning the cases, in the beginning i was confused i was mixing them up, it was frustrating i almost gave up and i even once decided to quit learning. So i decided to take them one by one understand the concept, write as many sentences as i can (200 or more) do the exercises again and again make mistakes it's ok :) and guess what i started mastering all cases i still make some mistakes (simple ones) but it's ok. What i want say is don't give up it's not hard and with Tarıks help you will get there in no time. Thank you so much Tarık for being so patient and encouraging. Wish me good luck in the talking part :).
