About Me

My name is Elçin Kocaman. I am 19 years old. I trained at 50. Yıl İzzet Baysal Primary School and then I attended my high school education at Bolu Anatolian Teachers Training High School. And now, I have been studying at English Language Teaching Department of Abant İzzet Baysal University in Bolu-Turkey for 2 years. I am studying on an approach which is Orff Schulwerk's study.I want to use this approach in my department,language teaching. Originally,it is used in preschool education. But I want to use it while teaching language. About this topic,there are many studies. I hope  I will contribute this approach thereby changing education system of language teaching in Turkey. I want to be an academician at English Language Teaching Department.

Besides my education life, I am very interested in music and writing.Writing something about me and the world from my perspective is very attractive for me. I sing songs all the time for better of worse. Computer attracts my attention. In my spare time,I occupy with many programmes of computer like Microsoft Word,Excel,Powerpoint,Prezi ,Format Factory,PhotoScape,Picassa,iTunes,etc. And also,I make a point of going seminars about psychology,vocational education,approaches about teaching,leadership,volunteering,etc. For example,I attended two education programme of Rotary. These are TLG(Society Leaders are Coming-Seminars About Leadership) and RYLA(Rotary Youth Leadership Awards). I gained more strength on account of this programme.

I am a volunteer in TEGV(Education Volunteers Foundation of Turkey). I go to any class of any primary school in Bolu where I am living. In schools,as a volunteer of TEGV I spend time with children as drawing pictures,playing games,etc. All this activities make children more creative. I am a member of Bolu Rotaract Club. I love volunteering for children,society,youth,education,world; these kind of works make me happier and strenghtful.

My father and my mother are the best models for me. I want to be a parent like them.
