In-person or online English tuition from A1 to B2 for Turkish people by a tutor with 15 years of experience.

Ümit is a wonderful teacher to learn from. He is very patient, and even though my understanding is slow, I never feel rushed, and I always feel supported.

Ümit is always extremely prepared for each lesson, but also very adaptable and flexible with his teaching methods, and his style will evolve with what suits your needs best.

If you are looking for a teacher who is patient, an expert in their field, and enthusiastic and engaging, I would 100% recommend Ümit.

I have lessons with Umit for many months and have seen real progress. He is a great teacher and super attentive to individual students’ needs. Highly recommend!

When I first saw Umit's profile I could tell he had the credentials to help me, and that became even clearer after our first session. Since I come from a Turkish background but raised in the UK, my command of the Turkish language has always been weaker. Though I could understand better than I spoke, I always struggled to communicate with my Turkish-speaking family members at home and abroad. From the very beginning, Umit has demonstrated exceptional skill at determining my competency level and adapting the lessons accordingly so I'm not wasting time re-learning what I already know but I'm focused on new rules and vocabulary in order to get fluent quicker. I have always found Umit extremely patient to answer any repetitive questions I may have, as well as a strong commitment to hold me accountable so I'm not letting day-to-day life get in the way of my goal to learn Turkish. He's always been flexible and generous with time to accommodate to my busy schedule. I've seen incredible progress in my ability to talk and understand Turkish both in written and spoken form since working with him. He's an exceptional tutor and I strongly recommend anyone who is looking to accelerate their fluency of Turkish to hire him without delay.

Umit is the first German teacher who succeeded in teaching me the third conditional!! No small feat! He really knows how to explain German grammar which is rare among native speakers. I love his ability to make connections when it comes to vocab (e.g. "fest" in German means "firmly"; English has it too: "fast asleep" - "firmly asleep"). It's just one of the tips he gave me. Insights like this are precious and make learning easier.

Best of all, however, are his speaking classes as he knows how to keep the conversation going while unintrusively, yet effectively, correcting your mistakes. We always discuss the most amazing topics and there's never a dull lesson with Umit!!

I highly recommend him as a teacher and as a kind, caring, wonderful person that he is. Super lucky to have had him for the last year and a half.

Thanks to Umit I very quickly improved my Turkish speaking skills!
The lessons are always well structured and fun. Could not recommend him more!

I met Umit through a friends recommendation to improve my English. He is trustworthy, patient, and innovative in his teaching methods. We became friends over time while he was teaching me English. He teaches English, German, and Turkish. I will start learning German with him soon.

Umit Soylu and I have been studying English lessons for more than 4 months. I improve my English thanks to him! Umit is a very patient, understanding and helpful. The way of teaching is catchy and amusing! I am very lucky to meet him!
