About Me

 HEY people!

This is Elif. I am a 20 years old STUDENT (hopefully not forever) living in beautiful Istanbul. Is it possible not to get carried away and get lost in the complexity of life as life drags us to places we could never have predicted? In one of these rapidly passing years, without realizing what was happening, I suddenly left the cold slopes of Eastern Anatolia and found myself in a huge metropolis, Istanbul. Even though the main reason is my school, Marmara University, I can't help but think that such big changes in our lives are due to our fate.


They say teaching is not for everyone, but all the energetic, crazy, cheerful, different teachers I met were always English teachers. I wonder if one day I can differentiate at least one of the students' days by spending an hour blending education and entertainment.🍂 Perhaps, I am taking one step further every day towards becoming an English teacher, so that I can be one of the many teachers who inspire their students and touch their lives. 


I hope that writing this blog will be productive both for myself and for people who think and have dreams like me🍄.

A SALTBURN JOURNEY!

A SALTBURN JOURNEY! Collaborative Review Writing with Google Docs Greetings my dear readers! I recently had a great experience using Google Docs to collaborate with my friends Aslı and Melike on a movie review of Saltburn . Our task was to see the movie, discuss it with one another, and write an in-depth critique. We wanted to make an inspirational and entertaining piece for film enthusiasts. Our goal with this project was to improve our writing and analytical abilities, and we had a splendid time doing it! Working together with Melike and Aslı was an amazing experience. Instant communication has never been easier thanks to Google Docs . effortlessly, we discussed ideas, made changes, and provided feedback. The ability to make comments on individual passages and offer edits without affecting the original text changed the dynamic of the game.  For this project, Google Docs was an excellent platform. Everything flowed easily and effectively thanks to its immediate editing. The functions

Stop cyberbullying!

  MY BELOVED READERS! Hello again❤ I was given an infographic to make, and since I wanted it to be fun, I naturally decided to tackle the amusing subject of cyberbullying. Since nothing symbolizes "fun" as harassment via the internet, you know. In any case, the design process was an emotional roller coaster, there were a number of challenges that I experienced during the design process. Careful attention was needed to strike a balance between the topic's heaviness and the requirement for appealing images. I'm grateful to Pictochart for being my trustworthy journey companion during this chaotic adventure.💣 Let's discuss the advantages now. Using infographics in English classes? My friend, gold in its purest form. They are aesthetically pleasing and not only brighten up the educational process, they also act as a kind of covert weapon against boring lectures!  💥 It's  joy  camouflaged  as  education! Not  to  mention  the  educational  advantages creativi
