 Hello everyone,

My name is Öykü Külahcı and I am a 21-year-old woman who is passionate about language. I am currently studying English Language Teaching at Yeditepe University. 

I was born on the 28th of August, 2002 in Kocaeli and lived there until I was 18. I have strong leadership and problem-solving skills. 

I have concluded my early internship at Celal Yardımcı Middle School and also worked as an English Teacher at American Culture Private Language Schools.

My interests other than language teaching are music and cooking.

Hello, I'm Baran from Giresun, Turkey. I was born in Giresun in 2002 and stayed there for 18 years. I finished elementary and middle school at Giresun Cumhuriyet Elementary (and later on Middle) School. I went to Giresun Atatürk Anadolu Lisesi. My journey to Istanbul started when I was accepted into the Yeditepe University English Language Teaching program. While studying, I developed a passion for literature and double majored in the English Language and Literature program as well. As for my hobbies, I like taking short walks on our campus, reading short stories and novels, watching philosophy videos and I enjoy watching detective movies. I also try to improve my French.

Last year I worked as an English teacher in a language course for 3 months and also worked as a Barista in a coffee shop for 3 months. Working while studying improved my experience of working and being responsible for my tasks and responsibilities. I am looking forward to experiencing more in my internship this year. In my high school years, I lived in Bursa and I moved to Istanbul to study at university. I am planning to remain in Istanbul in the future but I might consider new opportunities too. Currently, my priority is my school and internship. In addition to my priorities, I also want to apply to a French course and learn French. Rather than talking about my academic life and goals, I also like to draw, model clay, and watch movies as personal hobbies. S

I found a scene from ''The Office'' series on YouTube which has the option to show subtitles as well. Using scenes from movies or TV shows like ''The Office'' could be used with older learners like high school students or adults.  1- What is the reaction of the employees when the fire alarm goes off? 2-  Describe Michael Scott's approach to handling the fire drill. How does he take charge of the situation? 3-  Pay attention to the dialogue during the scene.
