INTRODUCTORY REFLECTION

    Being a university student a lot means to me especially when you are a university student at METU.Being a university student at METU is a privilige because METU has a lot of useful things in terms of both education and social skills.Education is more comprehensive and more practical at METU than any other universities in Turkey.When you graduate from METU,you have a great deal of choices and oppotunities compare to other universities because you will be more skilful than anyone.In addition,there are many social clubs at METU and you can join one of them.These clubs is another privilige for students as other universities have hardly or very few social clubs.By joining these clubs communication with people can be improved and students gain self-coinfidence and self-esteem.Because of these reasons,I chose METU FLE department.Being a METU FLE student was one of my dreams and it came true.I want to be an effective and skilful teacher to my students in the future so i thought that i could get this education from METU in the best way.Accordingly,i am happy to be at METU.I hope METU will provide me apracical and useful education not only learning but also teaching.However FLE department is a bit hard unlike FLE departments in other universities.For instance,there are many homeworks,presentations and projects.This is a challenge for me but i can handle with these works by studying.However,studying is necessary to be qualified and skilful teacher.Altough i am not sure exactly what i am going to do after graduation,I can be an academician at METU or i can work in other universities as a professor.As a result,I believe that i will be happy anyway.
