Personalised Turkish lessons for real-world communication

From 42.15 £ /h

I offer personalised Turkish language lessons for English and French speakers, as well as for native Turkish speakers who want to refine their language skills. I have over 15 years of experience teaching languages to learners of all ages and levels, from complete beginners to advanced users.

My background is in English–French–Turkish translation and interpretation, and I am also a published literary translator. This means I work with language at a very precise level, focusing not only on grammar and vocabulary, but also on meaning, tone, and cultural nuance. I help students understand how Turkish actually works in real life, not just how it appears in textbooks.

Lessons are adapted to your goals. This can include everyday conversation, academic or professional Turkish, writing skills, pronunciation, or stylistic refinement. For native speakers, I offer support with advanced writing, clarity, expression, and register, drawing on my experience as a communications specialist working in international and multilingual environments.

My teaching style is structured but flexible. I focus on clear explanations, practical usage, and building confidence. Whether you are learning Turkish for personal interest, professional reasons, or to reconnect with the language at a deeper level, lessons are tailored to your pace and needs.

Extra information

Courses are fully personalised and adjusted as your progress evolves. Depending on your objectives, sessions may focus on conversation, grammar, pronunciation, writing, or stylistic refinement. I draw on my background in translation and professional communications to help learners use Turkish accurately and naturally.

I am a qualified English teacher from England. I obtained my bachelor's degree in linguistics at Lancaster University (UK) and will soon have my master's degree. I have been teaching English for over 3 years to students who wish to improve their English language skills or become bilingual. All my students are satisfied with my course and those who had entrance exams have passed successfully. There is nothing like having English lessons with a qualified English speaker ;-) I have done all my studies in English and in the United Kingdom, I consider English as being my first language among all the other ones I have learned. Being a "native" speaker for me is meaningless, the qualifications are the most important as well as the experience (you could have a "native" speaker who makes a lot of mistakes because this person is not qualified in teaching).

The price of the lessons is moderate compared to the effectiveness of my courses. I use a variety of methods and can easily adapt to the needs of the student. I offer courses at all levels (beginner, advanced to university level) as well as English courses for IELTS/TOEFL, A-LEVELS or correction of written works.

I have worked with children as well as teenagers and adults. My 3 years of experience as a teacher in England have helped me to develop the qualities necessary to motivate my students and teach them effectively.

I can deliver the lessons online anywhere in the world.

Do not hesitate to contact me to book a lesson, places are quickly taken. If your desired time slot wouldn't be available, I would do my best to adapt myself to your schedule and I would refer you to some of my colleagues. ;-) Lessons usually last 50 minutes.

See you soon!

In a personal learning route you walk on your own level and at your own pace through vocabulary, grammar and especially talking.
No school stuff, but a lot of variety to stimulate your GOESTING for the language and give a boost to your self-confidence.
YES, YOU CAN!
I am a certified language teacher (NL-ENG) with many years of experience in schools, adult education and companies, and consider me a 'language desire architect'.
Together we open doors in a creative way, we bring the world a piece of 'on your doorstep'.
And, who knows, in the near future you will have a (linguistic) lump richer!

I am an interpreter by training and have decided to provide private language lessons in addition to translation and interpretation. Whoever wants to improve her or his command of English quickly and in a focused way has come to the right place.

At the start of a new series of lessons, I first test the level of the student, so that I know where I am and what the way forward is.
I ask my student what his or her ultimate goal is and try to adjust my lessons accordingly. Does she or he want to have a better command of the grammar rules? Does she or he want to be able to speak more confidently in front of an audience? Does she or he want to communicate with international friends or colleagues?
In general, I organize my language lessons according to three pillars: Language proficiency, which mainly consists of vocabulary and expressions and can be considered as the building blocks; Grammar, which includes the rules of the language and is the mortar or binder of the language; and Culture, which includes knowledge about the countries in which a language is spoken and can be seen as the architectural style.

- Design the best course that suit your purposes and interests
- Help you reach a certain level in Japanese as you desire
- Assist you in studying for the JLPT test

I offer courses through online platforms (Zoom, skype,..) so don't worry too much about finding a physical place to meet in this pandemic time.

Hope to work with you soon!

The course will be adapted to the student's goals, either help with academic classes or to develop speaking, listening, and reading skills. Improve your English with one on one theory classes and practice. I have a TOEFL certificate and an American education. I speak French and Arabic.

During the course with me you will have the opportunity to learn this new language in an entertaining and motivating way. We are going to work both the field of reading, writing, pronunciation and comprehension together. I offer diverse and dynamic activities where I prioritize the participation of the student and the conversation between us. Being a native I can offer you the most concrete learning of verbiage in Spanish or Catalan and work on phonetics.
I also offer English classes since I have the C1 English certificate (Cambridge School) and I have been in an English academy (Fun English School) during a course teaching English to children between 3 and 18 years old.

French and English are such beautiful and useful langages. With me you'll be able to practice your writing, reading, listening but also your speaking skills without any judgement. We'll have funny discussions and I'll show you that French is not that difficult. Having langages skills looks great on a CV but also enables you to show off to your friends and family. For children, I had many experiences as an English tutor in France, I would be very pedagogical to help kids learn while having fun.

The goal of this session is to allow the learner to speak in English, to understand its principle and how it can be used at school and professional level. These are also very simple lessons.
You will learn according to your availability.

Grammar made simple: explained clearly and applied through speaking
Reading & writing support: school help, essays, homework, exam prep
Fun for kids: games, stories, role-plays, interactive activities

Languages available:
English (native)
Swedish (native)
Spanish (advanced, I lived in Spain 11 years and attended school there)

Levels: Beginner to Advanced (kids/teens/adults)
Format: Online or in-person (Leuven or Brussels)
Scheduling: Flexible, short weekly sessions possible

If you message me, tell me the student’s age, current level, and goal (school, speaking, exams, travel) I’ll provide a plan!

French (Intermediate & Support):
Whether you need to polish your pronunciation, expand your vocabulary, or proofread your essays, I am here to help. Coming from a French-speaking family, with a grandfather who was a French teacher, I place a special emphasis on oral expression and helping you feel natural and confident when speaking.

Dutch/English (Beginner Level):
Learning a new language should be an adventure, not a chore. I provide beginner-friendly lessons focused on essential conversation skills, correct pronunciation, and the foundational vocabulary needed to start speaking without fear.

French is a fascinating language. Having already given private lessons, I would be delighted to do so again. Teaching a language is a joy for me.

We can review the vocabulary and grammar together.

I can also explain the course in English and translate into French.
