Istanbulda 

do you want to study or just you want to live in istanbul?

and there are many dormitory in istanbul for universty students and very cheap. you can find on net and if you cant find i can find for you.

thanks alot gizemece yes insallah I´m planning to enroll in a turkish course at

DİLMER

this dormitorys are not just for universty students you can also stay in and it is easier to find free place in summer but istanbul is a big city so you should know where is the your school and after you should find close place

I want to know the cost &if you can give me any tele numbers or sites to contact with them it will be great .the center address is:Adres: İnönü Cad. Prof. Tarık Zafer Tunaya Sok. No:16 34437 Taksim - İstanbul / Türkiye

thanks 

ok i will check the aparts

i found one the adress is : http://www.avrupakizapart.com/kiz_yurdu.html

i havent live in istanbul so i dont know well but i think this apart is close to Taksim 

The dorm recommended is certainly close enough to walk to Dilmer, or you could save walking a few hundred metres and catch the metro for 1 stop. The walk is fairly flat, other than from Taksim down the hill to Dilmer. Summer will be more expensive for accommodation, and the intensive Dilmer courses (80 hours per month, 4 hours per weekday) will need around 2 hours study time per day for homework and revision in my opinion. I have recently completed a level 4 course at Dilmer, so if you want to know how their courses are run, let me know. They start at the beginning of each month, and you will do a multiple choice placement exam at Dilmer on the first day, or the weekend before the month starts. That is followed by a small chat in Turkish, to gauge your competence in listening and speaking in Turkish.

Check your accommodation prices first, as getting your own apartment may be cheaper. You can also try wimdu

Good luck with your learning. 

thanks Henry I appreciate your help alot & yes I would like to know more about the Dilmer course & how they run I also want to ask about your accommodation where did you stay when you took the course & how was the course itself?! .thanks again & I will consider the appartment idea but I think that I will be more comfortable in a dorm ,it will be safer for me "as I think but not sure" .If you have any idea about the prices tell me please 

Henry "GOOD LUUUUUCK" you too in your study & may be will meet at Dilmer

I think I will start a separate post about Dilmer, to explain what I experienced. There are often discussions about which is better of the bigger language schools, Dilmer or Tomer, but so far only a few students (4) that I know have been to both schools in Istanbul. For different reasons (pace of course, professional response to enquiries, better standard of teachers experienced) they all have preferred Dilmer.

Ultimately the teacher you have will help determine how well you understand and use the new grammar and whether you enjoy the class. You also need to be focussed and dedicated to get the most out of these classes. I would also recommend if possible, to try to find a Turkish tutor who can speak your language. This may end up being a faster and more effective way to learn Turkish (but unfortunately also more expensive). It is always a choice between the quantity and the quality of the teaching, and it comes down to what you can afford in the end.
