Hi, I’m Cansu!*

For over 18 years, I’ve been deeply involved in language education as an instructor, teacher trainer, and designer of materials and tests, as well as in academic management. Currently, my academic journey also includes an exciting PhD project focused on exploring how learner corpora and digital methods can support early English language learning.

On this personal website, I aim to share my academic path with you, highlighting my research alongside my broader experiences in language education.

If anything here sparks your interest or you’d like to connect, please feel welcome to get in touch!
