Hello! My name is Muhittin. I am 44 years old from FETHIYE in Turkey, a native Turkish speaker and a trained Turkish language teacher. I like to watch movies and TV shows, listen to music, checking news on social media and love to play chess. I am a passionate student about history, politics and art. I am also a fan of documentaries about nature.

Teaching Experience:
I am a trained Turkish language teacher with 17+ years of experience. I have master degree on teaching Turkish language and literature.

Tutoring Approach:
Methodology: There is no perfect method to teach language alone, so I am using an eclectic methodology to teach Turkish language. We will be focusing on meaning, form and pronunciation. We are going to learn new vocabularies in the contexts like stories and real life situations.


The lessons will be student-centred, engaging and personalized, tailored to student's level, goals, expectations, interests and time.


Although, I am focusing on conversational speaking based learning, grammar is also an important element when it comes to learn a language. Because language is like a building: Words are bricks and grammar is the cement that glues the bricks together to build a wall.


We are going to use examples, articles, flashcards, pictures, illustrations, videos, songs, poems, books, blog posts and other authentic texts.


There will be homework tasks for revising vocabulary; watching, listening, reading and writing exercises if student have time for it.


I have created my own textbook. There are various activities and puzzles at the end of every chapter in my textbook. Which is a fun and effective way to learn new material (e.g. quizzes, crosswords, word search etc.)


My book has prompts in English. So, if you know some basic English, it would help you in my classes.


Book a trial lesson with me so we can discuss your goals and how I can help you reach them.
