Training of students at Pamukkale University, Denizli

     In the 1st semester of the 2022-2023 academic year, we studied at the University of Pamukkale, Denizli, the Republic of Turkey under a bilateral agreement from the Al-Farabi Kazakh National University, Faculty of Oriental Studies, Department of Turksoy. We were assigned to the Faculty of Humanism, the Department of History and the Department of Modern Turkic Languages. 

    In general, the business trip gave a lot of experience in learning the Turkish language and culture. We studied the history of the Ottoman Empire, the history of the Turkish Republic, the history of modern Turkic countries, international relations and foreign policy, the basics of the Turkish language, the Ottoman Turkish language, the vocabulary of the Turkish language, the phonetics of the Turkish language, the translation of the Kazakh-Turkish text, the Turkish language. The training took place entirely in Turkish. It was a huge experience in the development of our language education. During our studies, we performed a lot of tasks, that is, we worked on improving the Turkish language, studied the Ottoman language and tried to study regularly. All the teachers had extensive experience and were experts in their fields. It was very interesting to live in another country, to live in an environment of a different culture, to constantly meet new people. The purpose of this visit was to improve the knowledge and skills of the Turkish language and in our opinion, it was successfully carried out. A foreign educational trip gives students a great opportunity to express themselves, get acquainted with another educational system, and see interesting places of another country. We also collected the necessary data for writing a thesis, when all the teachers needed help, they helped as much as they could. 

   The Consulate of Kazakhstan opened in the city where our university is located, that is, in Denizli, and we became guests of the opening ceremony. Also, to participate in the presidential elections, we visited Ankara, organized by the Embassy of Kazakhstan in Ankara. December 16 - Independence Day we celebrated together with Kazakh students.
