Beyond Tutoring: Pedagogical and Academic Support

Academic and pedagogical support for students for whom traditional private tutoring alone is not enough.

I focus not only on schoolwork, but also on developing study habits, responsibility, and independence.

Timur İlman, social pedagogue

Who Am I?

I am a graduate of Sankt Georg Austrian High School and the University of Vienna. I grew up in a Swiss-Turkish family, in a bilingual and multicultural environment. I later changed my professional direction, completed training in social pedagogy in Vienna, and worked with children and young people.

Today, I provide individual pedagogical, academic, and language support for children and young people in Istanbul.

Who Is It For?

I work with children and young people who:

Students who regularly postpone studying
Students who struggle to keep track of homework and responsibilities
Students who have difficulty turning their potential into academic achievement
Students who constantly need guidance while studying
Children and young people who have not benefited sufficiently from traditional private tutoring

What Makes My Approach Different?

My relationship with children is somewhat different from a traditional teacher-student relationship. I aim to build a warm and trusting relationship while also setting clear boundaries and expecting responsibility when necessary.

By combining my background in social pedagogy with academic support, I focus not only on the day's homework or the next exam, but also on developing sustainable study habits in the long term.
