Turkish for travelers, expats, and heritage speakers
Hakkımda
Istanbul-based Turkish teacher with a background in linguistics. I work with travelers wanting survival Turkish, expats building daily fluency, and heritage speakers reconnecting with their roots.
Derslerim Hakkında
Lessons are tailored to your motivation — travel Turkish focuses on practical phrases and cultural tips, expat Turkish on daily life and bureaucracy, heritage Turkish on reading and formal registers. I use authentic materials for all levels.
