Merhaba! I’m Elif, a psychologist with deep passion for languages, culture, and human connection. My fascination with how people think, learn, and express themselves has shaped both my studies and my approach to teaching. For me, learning language is more than just mastering words and grammar, it’s about understanding different perspectives, immersing yourself in a new way of thinking, and developing confidence to express yourself authentically. Whether you’re drawn to Turkish for personal growth, professional reasons, or cultural curiosity, I’d love to guide you through this journey in a way that feels meaningful and enjoyable. ✨Me as a Teacher
As a community tutor, I take an insightful, student-centered approach to teaching Turkish. I believe that learning should be adaptable, engaging, and deeply personalized, rather than rigid or one-size-fits-all.Every student has unique way of processing information,and my goal is to help you discover what works best for you- whether that’s structured grammar explanations, immersive conversation practice,or a combination of both.My background in psychology allows me to recognize learning barriers, ease language anxiety, and create a supportive space where you can grow in confidence.Language learning should feel both challenging and rewarding,and I strive to make every lesson a balance of both.My lessons & teaching style
Welcome! As a psychologist and experienced language tutor, I design my Turkish lessons based on how the brain learns best, making them engaging, structured, and tailored your needs. Whether you’re a beginner or aiming for fluency, my approach focuses on real-life communication, confidence-building, and practical usage. I integrate interactive activities, psychology-backed learning techniques, and personalized feedback to ensure you retain what you learn. With me, you won’t just memorize words, you’ll develop a deep understanding of Turkish and speak naturally. Ready to make progress? Let’s start your language journey together! 🔆My teaching material

Elif is 100% the best conversation practice teacher I've had on iTalki. I cannot reccomend her more. She is great at conversation, making you feel comfortable and has really helped improve my Turkish speaking skills by tailoring specific conversation topics to my level of Turkish. I forsee many more lessons with her in the future and highly reccomend you book one with her if you want to improve your spoken Turkish. Thank you Elif!

Lessons with Elif are very helpful to strengthen my language skills. Elif creates an atmosphere in which speaking freely comes naturally without feeling stressed or anxious.
She successfully encourages me to talk and always finds good topics to talk about. Elif adjusts her language, vocabulary and speed rate to my level, so it's challenging but not too hard to follow and understand her.
I can highly recommend Elif as Turkish teacher!

Elif is just so kind that she totally took away my fear of speaking and listening. By our second conversation, I was no longer nervous, I was just happy to be able to use my Turkish. I also learned a few new words and sentence constructions. Dersimiz için teşekkürler! 🙌🏻

I had the pleasure of studying with Elif as my Turkish language teacher. Not only is she incredibly friendly, but she's also a genuinely interesting person with a great attitude. Her background in Psychology really shines through in how empathetic and understanding she is with her students. Additionally, she's always very respectful, which makes for a comfortable learning environment. On top of all that, I have to say that Elif is quite stunning - her look is just as charming as her personality! Overall, if you're looking for a fantastic Turkish teacher, I highly recommend Elif.

Ещё один урок с Элиф. Хорошие эмоции. Уверенность, что мне когда-то удастся одолеть непростой турецкий язык.

I just had my first Turkish conversation lesson with Elif. I was so nervous beforehand, but it immediately felt like talking to a good friend. She really encouraged me and I can't wait for our next conversation! Dersimiz ve bu harika sohbet için çok teşekkürler Elif! 🤩
