I think the offer of YTL 1,200 plus accomodation and transport is a pretty good offer for just 25 hours work per week. It will be even better if he is willing to pay for your international flight.
Usually accomodation in Turkey would set you back YTL 500 per month. Transport costs is Turkey are minimal at around YTL 1.30 for a single journey.
The amount you spend on food in Turkey can be kept low if you choose to buy local products. Imported products however do carry a hefty price tag.
Take a look at the Expat Arrivals page on Cost of Living in Turkey page for more information.
It is also worth checking with the employer that he is willing to support and pay for you work permit. It is not easy for a foreigner to get a work permit for Turkey and you'll need to prove you have special skills needed for the job. However, this isn't too much of an issue for those teaching English. Read the page on Work Permits for Turkey to get more information.
