Turkish Courses for Business in BedfordPlease click a title below for further information: Many professionals in companies across the UK, as well as private individuals, have benefited from an Turkish Language Course with SIMON & SIMON. We have a terrific team of qualified native-speaker Turkish teachers, and with an average of 15 years' experience they will ensure you benefit from a course designed specifically around your needs, whether you are a complete beginner or an advanced learner with more specialised requirements.
We consistently receive excellent feedback on our Turkish tutors from our clients, and we send our students a profile on their Turkish tutor prior to their Turkish lessons commencing, with information on the tutor's background and experience. New teaching approaches have revolutionised how modern language training is now approached. This training, with more fun and a more worthwhile experience means that it’s a far cry from what you may remember of studying languages in school.
When you start a Turkish course in Bedford, you will make progress from the very first lesson, as almost everything will be done in Turkish. This is known as the Communicative Approach, and means that your confidence and ability will soon grow so that you can use Turkish to communicate in social and business settings. Our Turkish language courses are available on both a 1:1 and group basis, but the majority of our clients offer 1:1 Turkish training to their employees. However, with careful planning, group training can offer great value for money, provided there is a real commitment from the participants to get together at the same time every week. We strongly recommend you keep group numbers to 6 or less for these types of courses to be successful.
Those learning Turkish in at Bedford on a 1:1 basis will naturally make much faster progress, as the course will be designed around their individual needs and focus on their particular strengths and weaknesses. Turkish Course ManagementOne of our highly experienced, multilingual Account managers oversees each SIMON & SIMON Turkish language course.
On starting your Turkish course you will receive various materials including a profile on your trainer, a Course Plan and course materials and a Progress Report on every 40 hours of your training. Breaking the Language Barrier, our quarterly newsletter, which contains weblinks to various language learning sources and a prize draw, will also be sent to you. SIMON & SIMON Turkish language courses have been arranged for clients in various locations. We have a global network of trainers and wherever you are, we will be able to organise a Turkish language course for you, not only in the UK but in almost any of the major cities in Europe and beyond.
Most of our Turkish courses are run at the offices of our clients so that you do not have to travel, but we are happy to arrange Turkish training sessions for you in your home.
Full-time Turkish courses can be arranged in a residential setting for you. Our office has information on the locations we offer. Bedford Turkish Course SchedulesOur Turkish language courses in Bedford take place throughout the year. Many of our students try to attend more than one weekly lesson if work commitments allow, and most will attend at least one session of 90-minutes duration per week.
If you would like a Weekend Course, one can be arranged. Our Turkish daytime courses run from 8am through to 8pm, Monday - Friday.
We also provide Intensive Turkish language courses on clients’ premises or in residential centres both in the UK and abroad. These courses run for 30 hours of the week, 6 hours a day from Monday to Friday. The Turkish language course that you undertake will be customised for your Turkish level and personal goals. Before you start the course, we will speak to you about your desired focus and assess you Turkish level.
You may have little or no experience of Turkish and only want basic conversational skills or you may be more proficient and desire more fluency with which to discuss business.
You may want to raise your Turkish skills for use in meetings and negotiations or rather develop increased comprehension and pronunciation skills.
Whatever your objectives, our Turkish language trainers are highly experienced, and you can be confident that your personalised Turkish course will help you to meet your goals quickly. Turkish Language Examination CoursesSIMON & SIMON also assists in preparation for Turkish examinations, whether for business or personal qualification. We believe that our 95% pass rate for language examinations is a reflection of our policy of working with Turkish teachers in Bedford who possess above average experience.
Registration for and administration of Turkish examinations, along with the issuing of results certificates are all provided by SIMON & SIMON. The table below is based on recognised language levels used by various academic institutions accross the European Union. A highly motivated student attending weekly sessions with their language trainer can expect to move from one level to another after 50 hours providing they also commit to a similar number of hours of self-study.
Of course, some people find learning languages easier than others, and some students will have more opportunities to practise the language in the course of their work and leisure, so these factors also need to be considered when trying to assess how long it will take to move from one level to another.

SIMON & SIMON International Breaking the Language Barrier Back to top of Turkish Courses Bedford Turkish is spoken as a native language by over 83 million people worldwide, making it the most commonly spoken of the Turkic languages. Its speakers are located predominantly in Turkey and Northern Cyprus with smaller groups in Iraq, Greece, Bulgaria, the Republic of Macedonia, Kosovo, Albania and other parts of Eastern Europe. Turkish is also spoken by several million immigrants in Western Europe, particularly in Germany. Bedford is the county town of Bedfordshire, in the East of England. It is a large town and the administrative centre for the wider Borough of Bedford. According to Bedfordshire County Council's estimates, the town had a population of 79,190 in mid 2005, with 19,720 in the adjacent town of Kempston. The wider borough, including a rural area, had a population of 153,000.
Bedford was a market town for the surrounding agricultural region from the early Middle Ages The Anglo-Saxon King Offa of Mercia was buried in the town in 796.In 886 it became a boundary town separating Wessex and Danelaw. It was the seat of the Barony of Bedford. In 919 Edward the Elder built the town's first known fortress, on the south side of the River Ouse and there received the area's submission. This fortress was destroyed by the Danes. William II gave the barony of Bedford to Paine de Beauchamp who built a new, strong castle. The new Bedford Castle was razed in 1224 and today only a mound remains.
Bedford traces its borough charter in 1166 by Henry II and elected two members to the unreformed House of Commons.
Bedford remained a small agricultural town, with wool being an important industry in the area for much of the Middle Ages From the 1560s Bedford and much of Bedfordshire became one of the main centres of England's Lace industry.
