Students learning Turkish at Ticaret TÖMER (Turkish and Foreign Language Application and Research Center) operating under Istanbul Ticaret University came together on Turkish Language Day.
International students who came to Türkiye to learn Turkish both had fun and socialized at the event organized under the leadership of Ticaret TÖMER Director Assoc. Prof. Dr. Arzu Çiftoğlu Çabuk and Deputy Director Dr. İsrafil Boyacı.
Turkish Language Day started with a conversation on “Volunteering and Being a Volunteer in the Green Crescent” by Ms. Sümeyye Dağ, Volunteer Specialist from the Green Crescent Volunteer Management Directorate. After the conversations held interactively with the students, a pleasant lunch was had together.
After the lunch, the art of water marbling was introduced in the workshop organized to introduce traditional Turkish arts and the students were shown how the art of water marbling is performed in practice. The art of water marbling workshop, organized by trainer Ms. Gül Sara Sümer, attracted great interest from international students.
During the event, which was held with the participation of international students from various countries who were about to complete their Turkish language education, various refreshments and snacks were also offered. The event, which also served as a graduation ceremony for the students completing their Turkish language education, allowed the students to strengthen their self-confidence in using the Turkish language by communicating in Turkish with the speakers and among themselves, and socialize. TÖMER students had fun introducing their local cultures with their performances.
