Greetings from İGÜN-TÖMER!

As Istanbul Gedik University Turkish Language Teaching Application and Research Center (İGÜN-TÖMER), we provide education with innovative and effective methods in teaching Turkish as a foreign language. Our programs are designed in accordance with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) prepared by the European Union, and enriched with methods that support practical application and cognitive development in language learning.

We aim to strengthen the ties of friendship and brotherhood between Turkey and friendly countries, enhance cultural closeness, and facilitate the adaptation of individuals coming from different regions to Turkey. In this context, we offer comprehensive Turkish language teaching programs for those whose native language is not Turkish or who speak different dialects of Turkish.

At İGÜN-TÖMER, courses are organized at A1, A2, B1, B2, and C1 levels. Our teaching programs focus on balanced development of reading, listening, writing, and speaking skills. Our goal is not only for students to learn Turkish but also to become confident individuals who can actively use the language.

Our programs, conducted at our Kartal campus, provide an ideal environment for language learning with a disciplined education approach, experienced instructors, and a student-centered methodology. In the language teaching process, reinforcement is provided through repetition and imitation, while grammatical structures are taught naturally through an inductive approach.

To help our students learn Turkish more quickly and effectively, we offer a natural and interactive learning environment where they are closely introduced to Turkish culture. Starting from activities organized within the classroom to social events outside the school, cultural trips, and group projects, our goal is for students to learn the language by living it and actively participate in social life in Turkey.

At İGÜN-TÖMER, we do not only teach a language; we also aim to enable our students to become active members of social life in Turkey. Every student who earns a Turkish proficiency certificate gains the ability to use the language effectively not only academically but also in everyday life.

Come and discover Turkish culture as you learn the language; become a part of the İGÜN-TÖMER family!
