First Turkish Reader for Beginners: Bilingual for Speakers of English

By Kemal Osman

Book Overview

The book consists of Beginner and Elementary courses with parallel Turkish-English texts. The author maintains learners' motivation with funny stories about real life situations such as meeting people, studying, job searches, working etc. The method utilizes the natural human ability to remember words used in texts repeatedly and systematically. Each lesson deals with a few main concepts. Those concepts are presented in sentences that are broken into groups and repeated in a variety of ways, so readers get familiar with them before moving on. Sentences from previous chapters are brought back around so readers do not forget them. This incremental learning makes it easy to progress. The sentences are relatable and practical so readers are learning useful vocabulary and sentence structures. There is vocabulary for each chapter at the beginning so readers can become familiar before they start and can refer back easily. With the translation on the same page, readers can effortlessly learn what any unfamiliar words mean. You can quickly pick up new vocabulary and phrases that are used over and over in the book. As you read the book, your brain begins to remember words and phrases simply because you are exposed to them several times. You do not even realize, until you must recall what you have learned, that you have already learned the new words and phrases. The audio tracks are available inclusive online.
