Where Can Foreigners Learn Turkish in Turkey?

As everyone knows, Turkish is the only official language in Turkey, both in the administrative field and in the education field. Thus, learning Turkish language is very important for foreigners living, working or studying in Turkey, in short, residing in Turkey for a long time. Foreigners who want to learn Turkish or develop their current level of Turkish can apply to the Public Education Center Directorate (Halk Eğitim Merkezi) in their city and register for the courses. Education at the Public Education Center is free for people and is available in many city and district centers today. If the foreigner has an international protection application in Turkey, he will need a Protection Applicant Identity Document for registration at Public Education Centers. In order to register, you must be a registered foreigner in the country.

In addition, some non-governmental organizations organize courses in many vocational fields, especially in Turkish, especially in cities where foreigners live in large numbers. Foreigners can request detailed information about the relevant courses by applying to the non-governmental organizations in their cities.
