Who is behind SpeakUp?

Hi, I'm Yağmur.

The reason I founded SpeakUp was simple: I kept meeting people who had studied English for years but still couldn't speak it. They knew grammar, they knew vocabulary, and many had even passed exams. Yet when it came to speaking, they lost confidence and struggled to express themselves. The truth is, language is not a school subject; it's a tool for communication. And communication is not something we learn simply by studying. It develops through use, practice, mistakes, and real interaction with others.

So, the problem isn't lack of knowledge. It's lack of practice. That's why SpeakUp is built around speaking from day one: real conversations, real language coaches, real consistent practice.

Our Vision

At SpeakUp, you'll find a community where learners gain the confidence to express themselves in English and break through the silence together. We know that fluency doesn't come from memorizing rules. It comes from speaking, making mistakes, building confidence, and using the language from day one. That's how natural communication develops.
