My professional journey spans 16 years, during which I have honed my skills as a native-like English and French language teacher, translator, and teacher trainer. Having lived in Australia and being a native of Iran, I bring a multicultural perspective to my teaching. I am currently based in Istanbul, where I have successfully taught at prominent institutions, such as Bahçeşehir College, Şehit Mehmet Güder government high school, Cambridge Line language school, and English Time language school.
Beyond traditional teaching roles, I have actively engaged in international conferences as a simultaneous interpreter, covering topics ranging from Seismic Retrofitting to International Investment opportunities and Machinery, Machine tools, and Metalworking. This diverse experience has enriched my linguistic capabilities and cultural understanding.

I started teaching English back in 2011. Since then, I've worked with professionals and university students of various language skills and levels. I am from Aleppo, Syria and I currently live in Istanbul, Turkey. Being raised by two teachers, teaching has always been my passion. My other passion is technology, and teaching online is the perfect combination of the two, which is why I enjoy and excel at what I do.
Looking forward to seeing you in my class!
In my free time, I enjoy going for walks, reading books, and watching TV series.
