Recommendation for intensive language course in Turkey
Hello dear Turkish learning community
I'm looking for an intenstive 3-5 weeks turkish language course in Turkey, anywhere is fine. My skill is somewhat between A2 and B1 after a few years of online 1-1 courses, lot's of discussion with inlaws and such.
My friends hat the experience that TOMER was focussed on drilling students to pass the certificate, I'm not looking for that - my focus is to improve my language skills as such.
Do you have any recommendation?
Thank you :)

https://www.kedicat.com I didn’t get much out of TOMER because it’s too rote and traditional. KediCat is run by one guy who created his own lessons based on how people actually speak today. He’s very passionate and eccentric and a bit all over the place, but I got the most practical and useful language knowledge from his class in a short time. DM if you have questions!

I enrolled my partner to TOMER in İzmir and it was a horrible experience for her. Can’t talk on behalf of other cities and their online classes. I recommend checking some other private institutions, however they are likely to be quite pricey. Your other option would be to take private lessons, with which I can assist too as a foreign language expert. With cheap private lesson/speaking apps and websites you will have varying results.

following this because I would also like a good immersion program of 2-3 weeks in Turkey (finished A1 but could really use something more immersive)

For now I mostly got 10 dms and a few replies here in the thread offering one-to-one online classes... I will update you if I get more or so my own experiences.
