Say it, read it, tell it
Turkish for ages 8–9
An event at school, a favorite game or a family routine can start a conversation. The aim is to give your child a reason to use the Turkish they already know.
Explore one topic in several ways
A topic can return in conversation, an illustrated text and a short writing task. An activity can invite your child to do more than recognize a word: it gives them something to communicate.
- Explain two rules of a favorite game
- Discuss a choice in a short story
- Write a short invitation to a friend
Understanding and expressing
Your child may understand a question in Turkish but prefer answering in another language. Sharing this helps you and the teacher consider useful prompts and the support needed for participation.
A small contribution from home
A brief picture conversation or a book chosen together can make room for Turkish outside lessons. Ask for your child’s ideas without turning it into a test; during lessons, a parent stays nearby and within reach.
What families wonder at this age
What if reading is less familiar than speaking?
We can discuss that as a separate need. Speaking and age alone do not determine the starting point; tell the teacher about your child’s reading experience too.
Who takes part in a group lesson?
Group lessons bring 2 siblings together; children from the same family learn in the same lesson. Our education team can help you check suitability.
How long are the lessons?
One-to-one and group lessons last 25 minutes. The gift intro lesson also lasts 25 minutes.
