ABOUT COURSE LEVELS
 
 

In order that you can learn Turkish in a systematic fashion, we based our main levels onto general grammar categories.

  • Basic Level includes basic tenses and simple sentential relation;
  • Intermediate Level includes verb forms peculiar to Turkish (such as voices) and subordinate structures;
  • Advanced Level includes syntactic structure of Turkish, textual features and complex grammar structures.

While we designed sub-levels, we took into consideration the use of frequency of grammar structures, those structures that you will need to use while speaking Turkish in daily communication settings, focusing on a learning process that gradually develops from easy item into relatively more difficult ones.
