Merhaba! Welcome to “Türkçe”. Turkish belongs to the Altay branch of the Ural-Altaic linguistic family, just like Finnish and Hungarian. It has evolved a lot since then. You’ll learn Turkish using the book ‘Istanbul’ or ‘Yeni Hitit-1’ with additional material from your teacher Melike. You’ll not only learn the language, but will also talk about amazing Turkish food, Turkish culture and traditions and maybe some politics in the classes! As we say in Turkish: ‘One language one person, thousand languages thousand people.’ Tesekkürler!

We’re very happy that from September onwards we’ll be able to welcome some groups back to our classrooms again!
For all courses with location ‘Hortus’, ‘Dam’ or ‘Vondelpark’ the lessons will be offline (at these respective locations). We will do our best to work ‘Corona proof’, meaning that the groups will be smaller than usual and there will be some necessary hygiene measures. (Of course there are still many uncertainties and it’s difficult for us to plan everything, so please note that we might need to move courses back online if governmental policies change and/or if safety becomes a concern).
Would you prefer an online course? All courses with location ‘online’ will be taught via ZOOM for the full duration of the course!

For fulltime students and people who are unemployed there is a 10% discount rate. This also applies to people who really need it due to the current situation. If you’re not sure if this applies to you, or if you have any other questions please contact us!
