Turkish Domestic Programs

1st and 2nd-Year Turkish

Turkish at the beginning and intermediate levels taught at the SLI provides the equivalent of one academic year's worth of study.

Turkish classes will meet Monday - Friday from 9:00 am - 2:50 pm ET for 5 academic hours per day with a break for lunch. In addition to intensive language classes, students attend Turkish films, lectures on Turkish politics and culture, and activities featuring Turkish culture on topics such as art, music, movement, and cuisine.
