WORK EXPERINCE

 

 

1999-..........                          Kocaeli University,Derbent College of Tourism

 

As a lecturer, I work at Derbent College of Tourism, Kocaeli University. This position has given me an opportunity  to improve my perception of second language education, and to teach in more different areas than I have taught so far; tourism. I have been teaching in Tourism Guide and Hotel Management Programs for three years. As we do not have a prep school for these programs, we taught students at elementary level in the previous years, but this year in 2002 our students will be accepted with language exam results from the University Entrance Exam. In both years, we prop up the lessons with audio-visual aids, cassettes, listening exercises, documentaries, videos and computer technology presentations.

In the second year, each program has different needs, by determining the target group, I carry on lessons directed to their needs. My purpose is to help students in problem solving in Tourism Industry. In Hotel Management Program, we study, High Season (Oxford Publication) four hours a week. In Tourism Guide Program, we study eight hours a week. As it is a great range of area, we use books introducing the cultural structure of Türkiye, guide books ,brochures, newspapers in English and some texts from internet as resources. I encourage students to talk, I encourage them to work in groups. For example; a group of students present a place of historical importance  and students ask and answer questions about the presentation.

 

 

 

 

1996-1999                                         Ankara University, Tömer, Bursa  Branch

 

During three years in TÖMER, Bursa, I got a chance to be with the students from different age groups; children, adolescents and adults. Each group had different needs and challenges. Children, for example, want to be active and be noticed and appreciated. Therefore; games, role play and songs were always in our lessons. Adolescents are easily discouraged and demotivated, so I should have been open and tolerant to them. Adults are highly motivated, they had specific goals in learning the second language. It was easy to teach them. Besides these, I was carrying on Communication Skills Club and I was working on  the translation of short stories for Translation Magazine of TÖMER Publications, Ankara.
