Letter from our students – Chapter 4

Hello to everyone. My name is Said. I’ am from Pakistan. I wanted to tell you about my experience about my Turkish courses in istanbul.  I always wanted to became a pilot since the day i saw the first aircraft when i was a kid. I worked so hard for this and after years and years of education and training i finally become a captain. It is such a hard thing to do actually but i’m not here to tell you how i did this. So let’s move on shall we (:

When i came to İstanbul my aim was as you can guess getting  a job in any airlines i can. After some research and job interwies i finally got one. I can not tell you the company but i guess you got it. When i started to work they told me that i must Learn Turkish to speak with the crew and also passengers. Thet offered me some courses but i did not like them actually. One of my old friends in istanbul told me a company called Ada Turkish Education Center.  So i find them and i sent an e mail about where do i live and how can i get the courses. By the time i was living in Halkalı but i move on to Ataköy 9. Kısım and they said yes we can send a teacher to you if you want.

At least 1 hour later i received an another e mail from my teacher. We spoke and she told me that we can arrange a meeting any time i want. Than we met and spoke about how important the Turkish courses or Foreigners. I took 4 courses every week and it took 3 months for me to became b2 Turkish Level Speaker. I think this is enough for you hocam (:

Hadi eyvallah (:
