Study English with Tuğba

Details

Study English 1-on-1 with Tuğba Polatcan — a Fulbright Scholar, university lecturer, and published English language author with over a decade of academic teaching experience at Yaşar University and Erciyes University in Turkey. Tuğba holds a Master of Arts in English from Clark University — awarded on a $40,000 merit scholarship — and a Bachelor's in English Language and Literature from Erciyes University. Her expertise covers academic English, curriculum design, and learner-centered instruction, making her one of Nona Academy's most academically accomplished educators. As a bilingual Turkish-English speaker who has taught English to thousands of university students, Tuğba understands the specific challenges Turkish speakers face when learning English. She tailors sessions to bridge those exact gaps: complex grammar structures, academic writing, professional communication, and the transition from formal to natural English. Her Fulbright Scholarship took her to Five Colleges, Inc. in Massachusetts, where she taught Turkish to American students — an experience that deepened her understanding of language acquisition from both sides of the classroom. She has also written two English course books that sold over 20,000 copies across Turkey.
