The actual range of time can differ by a lot depending on your current level of Turkish or familiarity with other languages in the same group. As soon as you've learned the basics it is best to use the language as often as possible: watch news and movies, write using your new language skills, look for native speakers to speak with, try other ways to think and speak in Turkish out loud. If it's more difficult than you had imagined you can also take conversational Turkish classes online.

Online, the number of lessons is really up to you, with early morning, day, evening and night classes available, on weekdays and/or weekends.
