Turkish Class Information

TACAM would like to welcome you to the beginning of the Turkish Language School! We have several exciting changes taking place to ensure that you or your child receive the best possible education.

TACAM would like to introduce our new Director, TACAM Board Member Emine Zeren. Emine is an education major who has worked with children in various settings for over the last seven years. She will be developing a curriculum bi-weekly which will then be posted on our Web site for all parents/students/members to view. Returning again this year are Özgün Ulupınar, who will teach the beginning learners, and Beste Windes, who will teach our more advanced learners. This is Beste and Özgün’s second year teaching at the language school. Both are native Turkish speakers with a passion to share their knowledge.

Our mission is to teach you or your child conversational Turkish, proper grammar, and Turkish literature. The children classes will be held at the TACAM building from 12–2pm every other Sunday staring October 18, 2009. This is a fantastic extracurricular activity for your child to be a part of.
