School of Foreign Languages

Dear Students,

In today’s world of information technology and digital transformation, English has inevitably become the universal language of international communication. As a result, it is now almost impossible to pursue a qualified academic, professional, and social life without a strong command of English. In this context, English Preparatory Schools have a vital mission in equipping students with the language skills required for success in their academic disciplines and future careers.

As English is the language of instruction in a significant number of programs at our University, our Turkish students are provided with the opportunity to develop a comprehensive and solid foundation in English. At the same time, our international students benefit from extensive educational opportunities designed to further enhance their English language proficiency.

The primary objective of the English Preparatory School is to help students acquire and develop the English language skills they need for effective communication throughout their academic studies and professional careers. To achieve this goal, our English Preparatory Program adopts a holistic approach to the design, planning, and implementation of English language instruction and is committed to establishing a strong and enduring foundation in English language proficiency for all our students.

At Istanbul Arel University, we strive to provide contemporary, high-quality language education that meets international standards through the use of the most up-to-date teaching methods and techniques. In addition to developing the foreign language knowledge and skills necessary for academic and professional success, our students are encouraged to build the self-confidence and vision needed to anticipate and shape global developments and changes.

Our primary goal is to ensure that our students graduate as individuals who can communicate effectively in academic and social settings within a global environment and who are able to use English confidently, effectively, and competently.

Alongside providing a high-quality language education through our distinguished academic staff and contemporary teaching practices, we aim to cultivate individuals who think critically, question constructively, take responsibility for their own learning, demonstrate creativity, and are well prepared for both university education and professional life. Through individualized support and one-on-one guidance, we provide our students with the assistance they need and help them achieve their personal and academic goals.
