    Onur is a smart, sensitive and knowledgeable instructor. He met us where we were (two of us, complete beginners, took lessons together) and actively searched out resources to help us toward our language goals. As an ethnically Turkish man who has spent time living in Istanbul as well as Arizona, and even serving in the U.S. Military, he brings a true bi-cultural understanding to learning the language. That is invaluable if you really want a grasp of the way English and Turkish relate to each other and how to move from the one to the other. Furthermore, we found him extremely flexible in working with us. And he is generous with his time. Honestly he really just cares about people progressing in their speaking and reading. What better thing could you want in a language teacher?

    Omicron Delta Kappa

    May, 2015

    Omicron Delta Kappa was founded on Dec. 3, 1914 on the campus of Washington and Lee University in Lexington, Va. The Society was founded by a group of 15 students and faculty who believed that leadership at the collegiate level should be recognized and encouraged across all phases of campus life. This general principle—that scholarship alone couldn’t predict success, and that other intrinsic qualities had value too—became known as the OΔK Idea.
