OK, the word order then is : ADVERB - VERB INFINITIVE - SUBJECT - OBJECT+VERB. But I have one more question: if the object is a name, for instance James, is the sentence then like that:
Iyi konuşmak ve okumak Türkçe James istiyor. ? or something differently?

In case its not complemented ,the subject in the Turkish sentence comes always first:
James iyi Türkçe konuşmak ve okumak istiyor

The word order is normally;
SUBJECT - ADJECTIVE - OBJECT - VERB INFINITIVE - ADVERB - VERB
James iyi Türkçe KONUŞMAK VE OKUMAK istiyor.( Here you emphasize 'konuşmak ve okumak' , which word you put behind of the verb, you emphasize that word)
If you say ;
İyi Türkçe konuşmayı ve okumayı JAMES istiyor ( here; you emphasize 'JAMES'. Not the others want to speak and read Turkish, but James)
Hope it helps you.If not,I'll try to explain you clearly

Yes thanks, I understand. Now I am trying to build an analogycal sentence in order to be sure of having understood everything:
John wants to do his homework well.
John iyi ödev yapmak istiyor.
Looking forward to your comments.

İ guess it should be,
İyi ödev yapmayı John istiyor .
So you emphasize John particularly,not anyone else.
