Volunteers who have lived in Turkey - Education Project

New York City NY

Description

My name is Irina. I am an elementary school teacher and I am working on a special project for students ages 10+. I am interviewing people who are from or have lived in Turkey in order to create a Digital Escape Room for older elementary and high school students. My goal and motivation: I lived and taught in elementary schools in Turkey for 6 years before returning to Vancouver, Canada. I absolutely love Turkey and talk to my Canadian students about it all the time. I find that there are many misconceptions that people have about Turkey (kids and adults). I hope that this escape room will challenge some of those misconceptions and get kids excited about learning more. I also want to make sure that I am not basing my information on my experience alone - which is why I would love your help! What I need from you: Please fill out a survey with 13 questions about life in Turkey. You can answer as little or as much as you want and skip any boring questions. I would just appreciate honest and thoughtful answers. You can remain completely anonymous or share your first name only. You can answer in English or Turkish and feel free to share the links with any of your friends!

Thank you in advance!!!
