Student Reviews

Read the experiences of students who have joined the language journey at Zümra Akademi.

Çok memnun kaldığımı söyleyebilirim. Öğretmenim beklemediğim kadar samimi ve anlayışlıydı. Özellikle ilgili olduğum birçok konuda çok hoş sohbetler ettik. Derslerin sonunda konuşmada daha özgüvenli olduğumu fark ettim. Bu süreç İngilizce çalışmada ve konuşmada motivasyonumu arttırdı kesinlikle.

3 derse girebildim daha ama cümle kurabilmek bir tık daha kolaylaştı benim için. Ben özgüven geliştirebilmek adına katılmıştım, konuşamamak noktasındaki zorluklarımı aşabilmek adına. Bunun için de konforlu bir alana ihtiyacım vardı — o rahatlığı hissettim çok şükür.

Hocamız bizleri konuşma konusunda çok cesaretlendiriyor. Yanlış yapsak dahi konuşmamıza yardımcı oluyor. Bilmediğimiz kelimeleri mutlaka not ediyor. Genel hatlarıyla memnun kaldığım bir kurs olduğunu söylemek isterim.

Çok keyifliydi; gün sonu tüm günü değerlendirdiğimiz tatlı sorularla beyin fırtınası yaptığımız güzel bir süreçti. Hocamız da çok samimi ve çok tatlıydı, teşekkür ediyorum.
Zümra Akademi öğrencisi
Uygun olduğum bir zamanda tekrar öğretmenimle devam etmek isterim. Böyle bir imkânı bizlere sunduğunuz için Zümra Akademi'ye ayrıca teşekkür ediyorum.

Frequently Asked Questions

The questions we are asked most about lessons, payment, make-up classes and the discovery lesson.

What is the difference between a discovery lesson and a consultation?

A discovery lesson is a short introduction of about 30 minutes, run as a demo lesson, in which we get a general sense of the student's level, speaking skills and learning needs. A consultation goes into more detail: it is a planning conversation about lesson format, choice of programme, goals, suitable times and how to enrol.

What is a discovery lesson?

A discovery lesson is an initial assessment of about 30 minutes, run as a demo lesson before you start. It is where we look at the student's level, goals and needs.

What happens if I miss a lesson?

If you tell us in advance that you cannot attend, one-to-one lessons offer more flexible options for making the lesson up. Group lessons cannot be made up.

How do I pay?

You can pay by bank transfer or EFT, and instalment options are available. Get in touch for pricing and package details.

What is the cancellation and refund policy?

If you are paying in instalments and stop attending, the remaining instalments are still due.
