Hello everyone! I am Simay. I am an urban planner and 24 years old. I am a native Turkish speaker and also have C1 level English and a little bit of German. For 4 years I have been teaching Turkish on Italki. I have had foreign students so, I have developed different teaching methods specific to each student. I am sure our learning process will be funny. I am looking forward to you : )

Me as a Teacher
As a teacher, I am really calm and patient. Since I love teaching, I am very energetic while teaching. So, everybody should experience me as a teacher : )
My lessons & teaching style
While teaching Turkish, I mostly focus on talking in order to Grammar. Because I believe that, we can learn a language by talking easier. In addition to talking, reading is also important. I can provide you some sources that you can read in the process of learning by depending on your interests.

I had a great time talking with you, Simay. You are friendly and cool, a positive person. It was an amazing lesson. I learned a lot of differences between english and turkish pronunciation and some phrases. You are doing a great job. Pleasure meeting you. Hope to see you soon. Görüşürüz!

Simay came well prepared. She even made me professional take-away notes from today's lesson. I am very happy to have her as my tutor 😊🙏 She's very smart, sweet, patient and supportive. She explains things clearly both in Turkish and in fluent English 👍

It was difficult at first because she mostly spoke in Turkish, but after a little bit I got used to it and got a little more comfortable. Only hearing Turkish right out of the gate kinda made me nervous but it was still good!

We used an online interactive book during our lesson which made learning effective. We had conversational role-play practice & she checked my homework too. I like that she speaks so clearly. Some teachers are monotonous, mumble, speak too fast or too slow. She doesn't do that. She explains by giving many examples & writes them down. She focuses on getting a lot of content covered according to my pace & uses the time we have beneficially. She is the perfect teacher 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
