Our course and teachers are approved by the Turkey Ministry of Education.

We use Istanbul Turkish books in Turkish lessons.

Our students take lessons in four main language skills (listening, speaking, reading and writing) and sub-skills (grammar and vocabulary).

In addition to these lessons, we watch Turkish movies and TV series with our students.

We also organize various excursions and activities to practice more Turkish.

For many students; It may take about 3 months (Basic level)  to be able to shop, go to the hospital, and solve their own problems in a simple way.

YES.

However, just like the TOEFL and IELTS procedure, you have to take an exam for Turkish.

We organize this exam and if you are successful at the end of the exam, you can get a Turkish certificate valid in all Turkish official institutions.

Apart from this, you can also get a certificate of attendance at the end of each course without an exam. But this document is only a document showing that you have attended the course and completed some levels.

In order to use it in your official works, we recommend that you take the exam and get a certificate as described above.

YES. All of our teachers are Turkish.

We do not think that anyone who speaks Turkish can be a “Turkish teacher” because they only know Turkish.

Our teachers speak Turkish as their mother tongue. In addition, we only work with teachers who graduated from the “Turkish Language Teaching” departments of universities.

Because we think that teaching Turkish to foreigners is an important specialty. For this reason, our main criterion is not only knowing Turkish but also knowing how to “teach Turkish”.

Sure.

Our teachers can also speak different languages, usually in English.

However, since Turkish is the “target language”, we do not find it appropriate to speak different languages in the classroom.

In addition, both our teachers and staff can help you in different languages, especially English, Arabic, Persian, but we take care to ensure that these help are outside the classroom 🙂

We come across this question all the time, but don’t worry. You will answer this yourself after only 1 week 🙂

Our classrooms have students from many different nationalities. Although English is generally accepted as a “common language”, we may have many students who do not speak English.

For this reason, we use Turkish as a common language after entering the classroom.

Because the target language is Turkish. Getting help with different languages is not a very suitable situation in terms of language learning.

After just 1 week, you will get used to taking Turkish lessons without any help.

We open new classes every 2 or 3 weeks.

To get the clearest information about the exact dates, you can call us at the phone numbers below or write to us via WhatsApp.

This of course depends on your needs.

Each level in our course is 6 weeks (120 hours). You can study as much as you want.

For many students, it may take about 3 months (Basic level)  to be able to shop, go to the hospital, and solve their own problems in a simple way.

But it is important for our students who want to learn Turkish very well to continue their education for 8-9 months.

You can find many options for Turkish course.

When choosing a course, only the price is asked, but this is a wrong point of view. Because there are some very important misconceptions that are not noticed in the first place.

For example:

How many hours are in the course for each level?

This is a very important issue. Because some courses deceive students by giving only 60-70 hours of lessons for 1 level. However, it is methodologically impossible to complete 1 level in 60-70 hours in a classroom environment.

In our course, each level is 120 hours and cannot be less than that.

Comments are very important. What are the thoughts of students who have learned Turkish before in the course?

Over the years we have received great feedback from almost all of our students. Those who learn Turkish perfectly, those who settled in the university of their choice with us, and others.

For reasons similar to these, choosing the right course is very important. Because with a wrong choice, both your time and money will be wasted.

One of the important criteria for choosing the right course is the experience and expertise of the course.

• How many years has he been teaching Turkish?
• Are the teachers Turkish?
• Is it accredited by the Ministry of Education?

There are many courses that teach in informal courses with foreign teachers whose native language is not Turkish. This would be a serious mistake and a real waste of time. Because the best way to learn a language is to learn it from native speakers. That’s why we always work with Turkish teachers who are graduates of Turkish Language Teaching in our course.

We would be happy to see you in our course with all our love and expertise 🙂

The most important and first rule:

Do not hesitate to make mistakes when speaking Turkish 🙂

Just like when learning any language, only courses and books are not enough when learning Turkish.

You can consider the gym example here.

All the materials are there, but if you do not do the exercises yourself, do not follow what the teacher says, or if you return to your normal life immediately after the sport, you will not be able to lose weight or develop muscles.

Just like that, your materials when learning a language are books and course.

In addition to these, you should;

• do your homework after the course
• use the new words you learn continuously throughout the day
• watch Turkish movies or TV series
• read Turkish books
• make Turkish friends

When you do all this, it won’t take long to realize that you learn much faster, speak much better, and get along with people much better than normal students 😉

Good luck!
