TURKISH
Temel Seviye I
At this level, we emphasize everyday conversations as well as a good knowledge of Turkish grammar. The basic books are the series "Hitit" and "Turkce Ogrenelim". The student acquires a fairly satisfactory vocabulary. In addition, we use excerpts from texts of the corresponding level and a series of exercises that include all the taught grammatical phenomena.
We also provide elements of the Turkish way of life and culture in general. Basic communication in the classroom will be in the Turkish language and we emphasize the students' listening practice.
