I was very pleased with Defne in the Turkish lessons I took through Superprof. The structure of the lessons was very well planned and provided a personalized learning experience for my needs. She was very patient and clear in explaining the grammar rules, which made my learning process much easier. Working with her not only helped me improve my language skills, but I also gained valuable information about Turkish culture and daily life. The lessons were both fun and productive, so I would recommend Defne to anyone who wants to learn Turkish.

As a mom, I’m so grateful for the help Defne gave my son with his English exams and IB written tasks. She really connected with him, breaking down tough concepts and helping him feel more confident with his writing. What I love most is how she personalized her approach to fit his learning style—it wasn’t just about improving his grades (which she definitely did!) but also making him enjoy the process. Defne’s been a huge support, and I’d recommend her to any parent looking for a great tutor.
I first met Defne when we spent a month in an exchange program when we were both 13. Her English was already at an impressive level for her age back then, as she was able to communicate with native speakers without having any difficulties. However, after almsot 10 years, I would have never imagined how deeply she would master the English language. Defne has spent almsot 80% of her time abroad, constantly meeting people from various nations and unique backgrounds, which has not only helped her find ways to talk to English speakers of any level, but it has also made her into the friendly, kind, and sociable person she is today. As a foreign speaker, Defne understands the paths her students follow and connects with them on a different and more personal level, hence I believe that she will be the perfect teacher to support you in your language education.
