Turkish Language and Literature
I can describe myself as someone who values learning, sharing, and building good communication with people. I believe that gaining different experiences, getting to know various people, and learning something new from every experience enriches a person. I have a calm, patient nature and always try to understand the person in front of me. When communicating with children in particular, I find it essential to accept their world as it is and to create space for them to express themselves comfortably.
I am an educational volunteer interested in the Turkish language and culture, child communication, and education. Passing on the Turkish language and culture to children holds a special meaning for me. I believe that our language is not made up of words alone; it carries our history, traditions, stories, and the values that make us who we are. For this reason, I place great importance on children not only learning Turkish, but also connecting with our culture and feeling a sense of belonging.
In my classes, I incorporate games, conversations, and creative activities. I strive to create an environment where children are not afraid to make mistakes, can express themselves freely, and enjoy the learning process. Recognizing that every child is unique and progresses at their own pace, I prioritize keeping the learning journey as natural and enjoyable as possible.
Looking back today, I see that the various projects I have undertaken and the experiences I have gained have shaped my current approach.
In this journey where I continue to learn as much as I teach, being able to leave even a small, positive mark on children's lives is one of the most meaningful things to me.
