Turkish Language House is a new platform for foreigners to finally master Turkish and be confident in their language skills.
About the program:
The Turkish Language House is an innovative new language learning website that is focused on authentic, spoken Turkish. What makes them so unique from traditional language programs is that their courses are designed to help students truly think in Turkish.
While most language programs focus on grammar lessons and studying vocabulary lists, their course is actually built to help you use Turkish in the real world. They have a fully comprehensive program that includes over 200 video lessons, 4 language courses, and a huge listening library.
This is their philosophy in their own words:
“Here at the Turkish Language House, we know that true fluency only comes through immersion and interaction with native speech. Because of this, every inch of our program was designed to help you speak like a local. We give students the ability to hear authentic spoken Turkish, to learn it naturally like a child, to actively engage with native dialogue, to walk through a coherent, researched based program, to access literally hundreds of listening resources, to work within a community of language learners, and to do it whenever and where ever you want!”
How it works:
Starting with the very first lesson, students will hear 100% Turkish to create a genuine immersion experience. The goal of the program is to learn naturally, so instead of “teaching” you, they let you learn by watching simple examples- just like kids do.
For the academic learners out there, you’ll be glad to know that they also provide over 50 sets of detailed grammar notes to help explain difficult concepts and clarify ambiguous sections.
The program is designed to walk you from A-Z, with a survival course, beginners course, intermediate course, and advanced course, as well as a large listening library for extended practice.
Each of their language courses has 60 bite sized video lessons that are broken up into 15 sections. Each of these sections introduces a few words using spaced repetition, then immediately uses them in a simple, focused grammar lesson.
At the end, interactive review activities connect and reinforce new concepts for long term memory.
