About us

Language, culture and education.
A shared perspective.

We bring together consultancy and publishing to explore China through its education, culture and industries.

Synopps

Our knowledge.
Your informed decisions.

Synopps was founded by three partners with degrees in Chinese Translation and Interpreting. We combine this academic grounding in language and culture with our work in education consultancy, professional translation and publishing.

Our publishing experience began with a social platform devoted to Chinese culture and continues through Orta Ülke magazine and current analysis. This background helps us consider China beyond its role as a study destination, including its society, changing industries and intellectual life.

In our consultancy work, we turn that perspective into a practical, personalised process. We assess academic options alongside each student’s goals and guide decisions, applications and preparation within an agreed service scope. Careful research, reasoned recommendations and clear communication underpin our approach.

Our shared purpose

From knowledge to understanding.
From understanding to action.

Our mission

Thoughtful assessment.
Informed choices.

To help students assess education options in China against their academic goals and personal circumstances, and to guide decisions, applications and preparation through a transparent service approach.

Our vision

A broader outlook
on the future of education.

To build awareness in Türkiye of the opportunities emerging from China’s development in science, technology and education. We aim to encourage students to look beyond familiar study destinations and consider China on the strength of its programs and their own future goals.

Our working principles

Trust begins
with how we work.

01

We listen first.

We start by understanding the student and their goals, rather than offering a standard list of recommendations.

02

We explain our reasoning.

We explain why an option may be suitable and which points need further consideration.

03

We define the scope.

Before work begins, we agree on the service scope, responsibilities and consulting fee.

04

We set realistic expectations.

We make clear that admission and scholarship decisions rest with the relevant institutions and manage the process accordingly.
