Turkish Course in Birmingham

If you want to be taught Turkish for academic reasons, business needs or gain a working knowledge of the language for general purposes, our tailormade lessons are guaranteed to be the ideal solution.

While a General Turkish course will provide you with enough linguistic ammunition to allow you to survive a short visit to the country (greetings, basic conversation and a solid grammatical foundation). A Business course in Turkish will generally cover basic business etiquette in that language, and at a higher level, reading and writing in Turkish.


Our Turkish courses would not be fixed to a specific curriculum, however. You know the specifics of what you will need from your new language, and all you need do is tell your teacher. Perhaps if you are taking a Business course, you may want to focus more on Turkish telephone or email skills, or a specific vocabulary for your line of work. Likewise, a General course can include specific elements that are integral to your needs, for example if you need vocabulary specific to buying property overseas.


We arrange Business courses for many clients; primarily those working in international trade, overseas governments and universities, and employees of multinational firms who require a second language. General courses cater mostly to those who wish to learn Turkish for short trips to (or through) a country where it is widely spoken; as well as those who wish to pass a specific Turkish exam, people who want to buy a home abroad, and people marrying into a Turkish family.

Info about Birmingham


Often referred to as England's 'second city', Birmingham is famed for its industrial importance throughout the country's history, as well as being home to the 'least sexy' accent in the UK. While it may be characteristic of Birmingham's native population, the city actually has the smallest indigenous population by proportion of any city in the United Kingdom. In fact the city has become known as a 'plural city' - that is, one with no ethnic majority.

This cultural variety is what makes Birmingham a cracking place to start picking up a second language. With around 20% of the population born outside the UK, and another 15% from outside the EU, there are plenty of opportunities to discover new and interesting languages around the city; and thanks to Birmingham's city council being the UK's largest local education authority, there is a wide and varied pool of qualified language trainers made available to you.

Info about Turkish


The most commonly spoken Turkic language, Turkish dates back almost 1200 years and is spoken in fairly large communities in a wide range of countries all over the globe, though predominantly in Turkey, Cyprus and Bulgaria. Vocabulary comes from a range of sources, mostly Arabic, Persian and French; though there are also many derivations from Italian, Greek and English. There are around 70 million native speakers of Turkish worldwide.

A difficulty of learning Turkish for English speakers is the '2-dimensional vowel harmony' of the language, though it generally becomes second nature after a period of study. However, Turkish isn't considered a massively difficult language to learn. Like German, words in Turkish can be formed by combining (or 'compounding') two or more words into one; and like English, nouns have no gender.
