As Retired in Retired

By Sandra Youngkrantz (COLLEAGUE) on 15-09-2020
"Nezihe is one of the most professional teachers with whom I have worked. Her knowledge base is extensive, and the way in which she shares her knowledge motivates the students to continue their learning independently outside of class. Nezihe single-handedly got our Turkish high school involved with the Final Model United Nations allowing us to send a team of eight high school students to represent various countries in Adana, Turkey. This club served to educate the participants on politics and current affairs while practicing their English. She had excellent rapport with her students, regardless of the subject and the students' ages. With her impressive language skills, her knowledge of history, and her drive and motivation, Nezihe will be an invaluable asset to any school or organization which hires her."
