Intermediate Turkish — Group Lessons

Who’s it for: Students who have a basic understanding of Turkish, but struggle to use anything other than simple and/or repetitive sentences.

Although you may understand your instructor, you may not understand native speakers. You might know the grammar on paper but freeze when speaking — especially with cases, relative clauses and -mış past tense.

This course pushes you past that wall: developing the ability to articulate complex thoughts and participate in ongoing conversations at a normal rate of speech; and addressing those areas of the grammar that most often trip up students at this level.

Turkish for Beginners — Group Lessons

Who’s it for?: For total newcomers or learners who know a few words but still can’t build sentences comfortably.

Turkish might be a bit intimidating at first — the reversed word order, suffix chains, vowel harmony, and little familiar vocabulary… The purpose of this course is to cut through the intimidation factor and introduce Turkish in an structured academic way.

You’ll learn through real dialogues and practical situations — whether talking to your partner’s family, or ordering at a büfe in Istanbul. Also you’ll build a solid grammar foundation without drowning in rules.

This course will help you build a solid foundation in beginner Turkish grammar — which can feel a bit intimidating at first — and speak more comfortably at the market, airport, or on the street.

Turkish for Heritage Learners — One-on-One Lessons

Who’s it for? For those who grew up hearing Turkish at home but never formally studied it.

You understand your family but can’t answer properly. You know words by feeling but not by rule. You start in Turkish but switch to the language you feel more comfortable when you get stuck. You’re not a beginner — but your gaps and advantages make it hard to fit into a normal intermediate class. And unlike other learners, you carry the pressure of feeling like you should already know this.

Instead of starting from scratch, we start with what you already have and continue by filling the gaps in grammar, expanding your vocabulary beyond family.

These lessons will help you speak more completely, understand the rules behind what you already feel, and write Turkish correctly with confidence.

Turkish Proficiency Exam Preparation (TYS / TÖMER)

Who’s it for?: For learners who need to prove their Turkish level for university, work, residency, citizenship, or personal goals.

You will be preparing to take one of the Turkish Proficiency Exams (TÖMER & TYS), which evaluate students based on their ability to read, listen, write, speak, and use proper grammar. The lessons will reflect your current skill level, your desired test result, and your specific test format; thus providing you with an organized plan to follow, rather than attempting to prepare by yourself.

This course will introduce you the exam structure, feel more confident with typical question types, and improve the language skills you need to perform well on exam day.

What Our Students Say

Real experiences from learners who transformed their Turkish journey with us.

I’ve been learning Turkish for quite a few years now, on and off, including courses in Turkey. But I was getting frustrated whenever I heard or read a basic phrase and couldn’t understand it. But this course is the best, most logical and engaging course I had thus far. So glad I found fluentinturkish.

I have been thinking further about this and I also had a conversation with my private (1:1) Turkish tutor yesterday who mentioned that my speaking seems to have developed very well over the last couple of weeks, which I think is due to the immersive experience of the classes you arranged.
