I had Ozlem as Turkish language teacher and I have deeply appreciated her qualities, which make Ozlem an outstanding teacher:
Master of Turkish
Besides being Turkish her mother language, she has in-depth knowledge of grammar, vocabulary, writing, literary elements, etc.
Instructional Techniques
In addition to being a master of content, she has a large repertoire of teaching strategies. Direct instruction, collaborative learning, etc. She is flexible and willing to try a variety of strategies to see what works best with his or her student
Innovativeness
She used to bring always new approaches and fresh ideas
Interaction
She fostered interaction by empowering and supporting me to develop my communication skills. She motivated me through activities such as roleplays, mock interviews, etc.
Personal Traits
She has a caring attitude toward the student and a sense of humour. The students need a happy teacher, not an angry one
This summarizes what I believe is a fair description of Ozlem as a teacher of Turkish. I am sure you will agree and share my enthusiastic view.
