About Me
italki teacher since Feb 19, 2024InterestsHistoryTravelEnvironment & NatureReadingArt
I studied primary and secondary school in Greek, high school in Turkish and university in English. I am a Greek of Turkish origin and I can speak both languages in native level. I can also speak Italian and German and I have practiced Azerbaijani too. I have lived and worked in different countries. I have taught several students Greek and Turkish, and now I am here to share my experience online. I have translated several novels from Greek to Turkish. I have special passion for literature and languages, linguistics and etymology. I share your similar passions and I'd like to contribute to your journey in learning a new language, either conversationally or in detailed grammar.Me as a Teacher
I am a polyglot myself and I am passionate of sharing my language learning techniques with yourselves. I am here to support you learn either Greek or Turkish. Both Greek and Turkish are very interesting and mind broadening languages. You will be surprised to discover how many Greek words (not only scientific or philosophical words) exist in your language and how interesting their roots are. Turkish, on the other hand, comes from an entirely different language family, the Ural-Altay family, and you will discover its enchanting syntax and its long words where sometimes a single word can be a complete sentence. With Turkish you can communicate from the Adriatic Sea to the Great Wall of China.My lessons & teaching style
I have two major types of lessons which can be tailored according to your needs. One is for beginners which start from the most basic such as the alphabet, spelling, basic words and grammar. The second type is for more advanced students which is split to two different styles according to the requirements of the student: style i) classical (inductive) method by progressing gradually with grammar from basic level towards advanced grammar and speech, style ii) Diving directly into texts and learning by analysis of each expression (deductive method). I suggest consistency and continuity of three months (120hours=10hours per wk=2hours per weekday) to allow the language to settle in your brain.My teaching material

Had a great conversation. The only problems were on my end (repeated power failures that broke the internet connection). Thank you!

Mr. Mustafa is one of the most exceptional individuals and educators I've had the privilege to team up with to learn Turkish. His friendly personality and supportive nature turns his lessons into enjoyable experiences. His teaching method is carefully planned, consistently offering relevant materials based on the student's overall interests. He fosters an inclusive and engaging learning environment where the student feels valued and encouraged to participate. His meticulous approach and attention to detail significantly enhanced my comprehension, pronunciation and grammar skills in a short period. In essence, he embodies a great educator.
