Lutfi Cem Yener


Hello Everybody!


This is Lütfi Cem YENER. I studied English Language and Literature at Ataturk University and now I'm working for an international language school named English First but at a state school named Aydin Dogan Meslek YuksekokuluVocational School of Erzincan University. My school building is in Kelkit, Gumushane. I have been working for this school for 2 years. That I teach in a distant place from major cities in Turkey with fewer facilities is a good chance for me to deal with worst scenarios in teaching.

It's a pleasure to see my colleagues all over Turkey and my Linguistics lecturer Ms. Elyildirim in the same course.
I can only find a chance to write just after the seventh week of this lovely intensive course which sometimes makes me sleepless. As far as this course is concerned, I see this course as another step after my Celta course. It is really nice to have an environment through which we can share our ideas on single topic by reading different essays. My main focus in the course is Managing Large Classes which is a fact of Turkey that we cannot ignore. Of course, other titles are also important for me. I try to read all of your ideas line by line and share with my colleagues. It seems that we have two main groups here: 1- Teachers who educate language proficient students and 2- Teachers who educate non-language proficient students. I think, this is also very useful for us too, because we can get ideas from each other to get rid of some cases in which we can make use of our experiences.

Don't Stop Learning New Things....
Yours,
Cem

P.S. I want to send some of my students' photos in one of my lessons but I'm really sorry for the blurry pictures. Oh my old PDA!
