Using interactive worksheets, games, videos, flashcards, etc. I am highly concentrated on non-formal ways of teaching. No more useless grammar and worthless vocabulary. Focused on learning words and practising real English. Balanced four comprehensions - reading, listening, speaking and writing.
Private and group lessons both for children and adults. Great passion for leading the students through the path of exploring a new language.
I have three years of experience in teaching languages. I speak four fluently and two at an intermediate level.

As soon as I met Elis, I instantly knew I would succeed in my English course. She was open-minded and friendly from the beginning and even though I was asking a question after question, she responded kindly every time and wanted to help me even more.
Elis is a really good teacher and a skilled individual at communication. She is motivated, helpful and kind.
I'd describe my experience with her as excellent. I reccommend Elis to everyone who wants to learn and have fun at the same time!
For some reason I thought Bulgarian was hard to learn so it's an adventure to even try it !
But with Elis hoca it was so simple ,smooth and incredibly easy
I can't believe I made it so far in such a short time !
And the most amazing thing is that it's fun and amusing to study
Learning a new language is discovering a new person inside you ! New culture and a new county to visit !!
Thanks from the bottom of my heart Elis for this gift

ELIS hocayla ilk dersten sürecin çok iyi geçeceğini anlayabilirsiniz. Bilgisi, samimiyetiyle çok iyi bir öğretmen. Bu süreçte böyle bir öğretmene denk gelmek büyük şans.
