• Adults or children looking to advance their Turkish language skills. (40)
• Students preparing for the GCSE exam (45 pounds)

My qualifications:
I hold degrees in Turkish Language and Literature.
Bachelor’s (Boğaziçi University)

Ph.D. (Yildiz Technical University)

As a native Turkish speaker, I’m fluent in English, Arabic, and Persian.

I’ve lived in London for almost five years, where I continue researching and teaching Turkish online. I currently teach online and work as an A-level and GCSE Turkish teacher at a college. I am an associate examiner by Pearson for GCSE and A-Level Turkish exams. Before that, I lived in Istanbul for 20 years and have traveled to other countries for research and study.

About the lesson

One-on-one lessons tailored to your needs. Each session is held online via Zoom, and I’ll share lesson slides via email afterwards. You can also request recordings of the lessons to review later. One hour per week is typically enough due to the comprehensive nature of the content.

I am writing to share my feedback and provide a rating for the one-on-one teaching sessions I had with Funda. Those sessions were specifically tailored to my learning needs, and I would like to express my thoughts on the experience.
The one-on-one teaching session led by Funda was truly remarkable. She exhibited a deep understanding of the subject matter and a keen ability to adapt her teaching approach to my individual learning style and pace.
Throughout the session, she displayed a high level of professionalism and a genuine interest in my progress
Funda skillfully guided the session by breaking down complex concepts into digestible segments, ensuring that I grasped each step before moving forward. Her patient and encouraging demeanor created a comfortable environment where I felt confident asking questions and seeking clarification.
One aspect that stood out was Funda's ability to provide real-world examples and practical applications for the concepts we discussed. She demonstrated a clear link between the theoretical knowledge and its relevance to everyday situations, making the content engaging and relatable.
As a result of these teaching sessions, I am proud to say that I now speak Turkish much more fluently and confidently. I can engage in conversations, read texts, and express myself with greater ease. This improvement would not have been possible without Funda's expert guidance and support.
In summary, I highly recommend Funda for her outstanding teaching skills and the positive results she delivers.

Find out more about Funda

1) Do you speak this language fluently because of your origins or because a teacher inspired you to learn?
Yes, I am a native Turkish speaker.
2) Can you name a living, historical or fictional character that you think is the emblematic representative of the language's culture?
Yasar Kemal is an important writer who leads Turkish literature.
3) Is there a typical word, phrase, tradition or behavior in the language that you particularly like?
We say "kolay gelsin" when we see someone working on anything, which means "I hope it gets easy for you."
4) Why does speaking this language matter to you?
I like the harmony and expressions in this language.
5) What is the main difficulty in learning this language, and what can help the process of learning?
The most difficult part is suffixes, which are quite different than their version in European languages. Because the Turkish language is an Altaic language, it is one of the agglutinative languages.
6) Provide a valuable anecdote related to your language learning or your days at school.
Because I graduated from Bogazici University where its educational language is English, it was quite weird to read Turkish writers and their books but anylse them as English.
7) How has travel or a specific trip helped you to increase your skill and knowledge of the language?
By contacting local people, a person can improve his language. Especially using the language in daily life such as when he is at market, shop or in conversation with a friend might make huge improvement in learning.
8) What makes you a Superprof in language?
I have a Ph.D, M.A., and a Bachelor's degree, all in Turkish language and Literature. I worked as a research assistant and then lecturer in a university in the Department of Turkish Language and Literature. Recently, I have been working as an A-level Turkish teacher in a college in London.
