Additional Information

Currently, I am enrolled in the Open Education Program at the Faculty of Economics and Administrative Sciences at Eskişehir University. As a third-year student, I continue my education. My high school education was completed with the Department of Kindergarten Teaching. As part of my professional development, I completed courses in child development. By obtaining the approval certificate from the district governorship, I have successfully fulfilled my duties as a kindergarten teacher in a public school. I have received certificates of approval, appreciation and recognition from the Ministry of National Education, which are documented in my file. Following an 8-year tenure as a kindergarten teacher, I transitioned to the role of accounting manager at a corporate company for 6 years. The Istanbul Municipality has extended an offer for me to become a train driver, citing my strong analytical thinking, problem-solving skills, and conscientiousness derived from my previous professional experiences. With the approval of 10 physicians based on train driving, I successfully completed the health check and all the training I had to take, and I received my train driver's license. You can get information about my success by phone calls from my managers and the training chief related to my train driving profession in Turkey. Documents and certificates of all my work will be presented to you in face-to-face meetings.
