Turkish Courses for Business in Peterborough

SIMON & SIMON’s team of qualified native Turkish speaking teachers average 15 years of experience. Professionals and private individuals from all over the UK have benefited from SIMON & SIMON’s Turkish language courses, all of which are tailor-made to reflect each student's level of experience. We consistently receive outstanding feedback from our clients about our Turkish tutors. Each student is sent a specific profile on the experience and background of their Turkish tutor before they start their course of lessons.

If the only experience you have of studying a language is from your time in school, you may not know that there has been a revolution in the teaching of modern languages so that it is both more fun and more worthwhile. Your Turkish teacher in Peterborough will be using the Communicative Approach, where your lessons will, with few exceptions, be conducted in Turkish. You will see your progress from that very first lesson and will soon be confident enough to conduct business or talk socially in Turkish.

Turkish courses from us can be run for groups or individuals. While many of our clients offer their employees Turkish courses on a 1:1 basis, group sessions can be excellent value. Group sessions do require planning and commitment from the participants and we recommend that no more than 6 people participate in a group. As 1:1 lessons can be tailored to an individual’s needs, strengths and weaknesses, learning Turkish in Peterborough on a 1:1 basis will give quicker progress.

Turkish Course Management

One 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.

Turkish language courses have been run by SIMON & SIMON in many locations. Our global network of language trainers means that any major city in the UK Europe, and beyond can hold your Turkish language course. We can arrange your Turkish language lessons for your own home, but many of our clients like to run them in their offices so as to minimise travel. Residential full-time Turkish language courses are also available. Our office can discuss available locations with you.

Peterborough Turkish Course Schedules

Our Turkish language courses in Peterborough go on all year. Some of our students attend more than one 90-minute weekly session if work circumstances allow, and most will attend at least one per week. Weekend Courses in Turkish can be arranged on request. Our Turkish courses are available 12 hours a day, from 8am to 8pm Monday through Friday. 30 hour per week intensive Turkish courses can be held on clients’ premises or in residential centres in the UK or abroad. These courses take 6 hours per day, Monday through Friday.

We will tailor your Turkish language course for your specific aims and level of knowledge. Before you start your Turkish language course we will assess your goals and level of Turkish experience. Your desire to learn Turkish may be simply to develop basic skills, or you may have some level of proficiency and wish to increase your ability to use Turkish to discuss business. You may want to develop your language skills so that you can use Turkish in negotiations and meetings or improve your pronunciation and telephone skills. No matter what goals you have, you can be confident of our Turkish trainers experience and that your Turkish language course is tailored to your needs and your goals will be quickly met.

Turkish Language Examination Courses

Our students’ pass rate for Turkish examinations is at 95%, and we are happy to help with the preparations for any such examination. Our high pass rate shows the value of working with Turkish teachers in Peterborough who have a higher level of experience than average. SIMON & SIMON also arrange registration for Turkish examinations as well as administering the examination and issuing the results.

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.

Peterborough is a cathedral city and unitary authority area in the East of England, with an estimated population of 164,000 in June 2007. For ceremonial purposes it is in the county of Cambridgeshire. Situated 75 miles (121 km) north of London, the city stands athwart the River Nene, which flows into the North Sea approximately 30 miles (48 km) to the north-east. The railway station is an important stop on the East Coast Main Line railway. The local topography is flat and low-lying, and in some places lies below sea level. The area known as the Fens falls to the east of Peterborough. The City of Peterborough includes the outlying military installation of RAF Wittering, and as a unitary authority it borders Northamptonshire and Rutland to the west, Lincolnshire to the north, and Cambridgeshire to the south and east. Human settlement in the area dates back to before the Bronze Age, as can be seen at the Flag Fen archaeological site to the east of the current city centre. This site also shows evidence of Roman occupation. The Anglo-Saxon period saw the establishment of a monastery, then known as Medeshamstede, which later became Peterborough Cathedral. The population grew rapidly following the arrival of the railways in the nineteenth century, and Peterborough became an industrial centre, particularly noted for its brick manufacture. Following the Second World War, growth was limited until designation as a New Town in the 1960s.
