Abdulhamid I founded the "Mühendishane-i Bahr-i Hümâyûn," or Ottoman Imperial Maritime Engineering School, in 1782 to improve the shipyard and navy. The school's education was conducted in English since all of the instructors were native English speakers (Boyacıoğlu, 2015).

Since the Ottoman Empire was still depending on the Divan-Hümayun translators for following events and relations in Europe at the time, the Bab-ı Ali Translation Chamber was created in response to the treasonous behavior and manner of the translators who worked as Ottoman officials during the Greek Revolt of 1821.  Also, the Bab-ı Ali Chamber can be defined as the Ottoman Empire's first institution to teach foreign languages steadily (Boyacıoğlu, 2015).

The first independent international school founded by foreigners in the Ottoman Empire was Robert College, in 1863. This institution's mission was to popularize American culture. English was the teaching language in Rober Collage. Abdülhamit forbade Turks from enrolling at this institution (Çakır, 2007).

Because of the  lack of foreign language instruction at the Bab- Ali Translation Chamber, The Ottoman Foreign Language School was founded in 1864. It was the first school in the region to provide instruction in foreign languages. This school also provided instruction in English, Russian, and German, in additiion to French (Çakır, 2007).

It was decided to open a new school in Istanbul to teach a foreign language in advanced level and to fulfill the requirements of the civil employees of the State as a result of several failures in the foreign language education. The language of instruction in this school was French. This school, where French professors also worked, quickly gained a reputation for providing  a qualified foreign language instruction throughout Europe. Also, Muslim and non-Muslim students were receiving the education together in this scool (Boyacıoğlu, 2015).
