Little bit about me...

I worked as a Student Technology Mentor then as an Instructional Design Assistant for Center for Teaching and Learning between December 2000 and November 2004. I studied Business Marketing Analysis at George Brown College in Toronto. After I earned Postgraduate certification in 2006 I started to work for MTS Allstream as Marketing Communication and Web Specialist. Upon return to New York, I was happy to return to work at LaGuardia’s Center for Teaching Learning as an ePortfolio consultant. I have a B.S. in Computer Information Systems from City Tech; ASS Degree in Computer Programming from LaGuardia; ASS degree in Electrical Engineering Technology from Mugla University, Turkey and teaching certification from Kocaeli University in Turkey.  I plan to further my education in a Master’s and Ph.D. program in computer science and business applications beginning in 2014. My passions are the joint occupations of teaching and learning as the pathway to enhance professional opportunity, advance the intellect, and provide benefit to one’s society and family.

What changed my life and my accomplishments

I made many important decisions that have changed my life. My first important decision was to become a soccer player. I started to play soccer on my city team when I was 13 years old. My parents were disappointed about my first decision because they wanted me to prepare for college entrance examination. Unfortunately I couldn’t become a professional soccer player, but I learned many things as a player. I learned how to win as a team. I lear

ned that without giving effort there is no winning.

My second big decision was to leave my parents to get a better education in a big city. I studied electricity for four years in a technical high school. I saw many poor people, homeless children, political fights and people with hope. 

Those experiences taught me numerous things. I become a more realistic person. So, I wanted to become a teacher to change my society.

My third decision was to attend college. I continued to study electricity at the University of Mugla, and got my first college degree.

I wanted to become a teacher after I graduated from Mugla University. I studied teaching at the University of Kocaeli. I got my teaching certificate and had first teaching experience as a teacher assistant. Teaching plays a very important role on people’s life. Our world is getting dangerous, and people don’t care about it. Pollution, global warming, spreading diseases, guns, bombs, and all others are threatening the world. I believe, the only way to change our society is education.
