Lessons


What lessons do you teach?
I teach business, general, and academic English. Business English lessons focus on telephone communication, presentation, meeting, and negotiation skills for global business.  Academic English lessons focus on exam strategy for IELTS, TOEFL, and SAT exams.  General English lessons customize relevant, authentic, and entertaining material to target specific needs and goals. Lessons include listening, speaking, pronunciation, writing, vocabulary, and reading activities.

What is your teaching style?
My communicative style allows students to discover and correct their mistakes. I follow the CELTA method: I ask concept and instruction questions to check students understand. This develops both fluency and accuracy. I plan lessons for visual, audio, and kinesthetic learning styles. Audio learners listen to podcasts and radio stations and record telephone conversations. Visual learners watch online talks and film clips and read books. Kinesthetic learners practice movement games with new vocabulary.

Do you speak Turkish?
Yes, I study Turkish at the beginner level. I love learning and teaching new languages. I am proficient in French, Spanish, and Mandarin Chinese.

Do you teach Skype lessons?
Yes, please request lessons on Skype or telephone calls.

What is the fee?
Lessons cost $50 or 100 TL/hour. Please ask about a discount for a program of two lessons a week, or eight lessons a month. Write a message for a free demo lesson during the needs analysis.
