Turkish spoken by more than 100 million speakers and some of its distinctive characteristics are vowel harmony (Ünlü uyumu) and it is a so-called ‘agglutinating’ language. That is to say, there is a system of suffixes by which words indicate a direction, location, or, say, possession relationship.
In Turkish lessons at Taalhuis Amsterdam, you will learn the Turkish language with the help of the book ‘Istanbul’, in a communicative manner and with a lot of attention to speaking skills. Our teachers speak in the target language as much as possible – even from the very beginning – and encourage you to do the same yourself.
Of course, the teachers also bring (authentic) material such as songs to class, so you not only learn the language but also talk about Turkish food, culture, and traditions. As we say in Turkish:’Bir lisan bir insan, bin lisan bin insan’ (‘One language one person, a thousand languages a thousand people.’) Tesekkürler!
