Izmir ratings & opinions
How our students rated their experience in Izmir
What our students said about Izmir
Izmir is very beautiful. However, almost all of historic Smyrna, including its historic buildings, was lost in the fire of 1922, and what remains has unfortunately been left to decay for the most part. Efforts are being made to rebuild the remaining historic buildings according to preservation criteria. This will do the city a lot of good.
I love Izmir - the sea, the breeze, the colourful hustle and bustle, the good food, the friendly atmosphere and simply the friendly Turks. The city doesn't have too many sights, but certainly enough for a week or two.
Beautiful, green, good transport connections, most streets are clean. Defensive road traffic, traffic lights are respected, zebra crossings not so much. Lots of bars and restaurants, rather mid- to high-priced.
Overall, prices in Turkey are relatively high. Furthermore, the yen is weak, so I can't find any bargains. Nonetheless, Izmir is a safe city, and the food there is quite enjoyable.
The Izmircard is great. The introduction of a similar card in German cities would be a great advantage.
Beautiful, located by the sea; unfortunately many houses in Alsankcak are falling into disrepair
A very interesting city. A kind of Bologna of Turkey, just much, much bigger.
Big beautiful city, lots of walking options, long promenade, great sea views.
It's a good place to live. Very modern. Favourable public transport offers.
Beautiful, big and a lot to see. Very tasty food and more than cheap.

Esra is an excellent teacher. Her explanations of grammar and pronunciation are clear and easy to understand. She prioritizes listening and speaking lessons more than writing.

Small classes - two to three pupils. Good location, in the centre of town. The textbook used was okay. The teacher was pleasant.
‘Royal’ is pompous and “education centre” (two small rooms) is an exaggeration.

The teachers are well trained and were able to teach me the content very well. They are helpful in every way, we were even picked up at home on the first day of school and taken to school. Before the start of school in Izmir, we were given a pre-test for placement in the classes. The lessons were very varied. The learning materials (books and worksheets) were well organised. The teachers speak Turkish and English. The tasks were challenging and manageable. There were always tips and advice on activities in Izmir, restaurants, special places and specialities. I am very satisfied with my personal learning outcome.
informal, relaxed and friendly atmosphere

FAQ - Frequently asked questions about Turkish courses in Izmir
- I am an absolute beginner and would like to focus on practical conversation rather than grammar. Is that possible?“If you are an absolute beginner, you will need grammar before you can converse, as you will naturally need to learn to build sentences first. ”Robin Rebecca Pietersma, Language Travel Consultant from LanguageCourse.Net - Mar 12, 2024Didn't find what you are looking for?Interested in language travel to other cities?
