Language Exchange in Umraniye

Hey you 🌿

If you’ve been wanting to practice English but don’t really enjoy formal or stressful environments, maybe this is your thing.

Our meet-ups are basically a cozy evening of conversations, games, random topics, new people, and sometimes unexpectedly deep discussions :)

We guide the flow with little conversation games and question cards so nobody has to sit there thinking “okay… now what do I say?”

And honestly, it’s never just English practice. People bring their own languages, cultures, accents, and personalities into the space. Sometimes one conversation somehow ends up moving between 3 languages at once and that’s kind of what makes these evenings feel safe and intimate instead of performative.

You don’t need perfect English.
You just need willingness to join in.

Some people come very shy and leave realizing they actually spoke way more than they expected.

Last time one of our members said:
“Ümraniye really needed something like this. We don’t have spaces like this here. It feels like a breath of fresh air.”

And honestly… that stayed with us. So if you’ve been looking for a softer way to practice English, meet kind people, and feel a little more connected in this huge city, come join us 💛

Our beautiful venue, Atölye Aposkal, is a cozy café just 5 minutes away from Ümraniye metro station, run by a lovely lady who bakes amazing gluten-free pastries.

With or without gluten, life is too short not to find new friends.

Come 🌿
