Reflections: Bahcesehir College Atasehir Istanbul Turkey

"Before I started this project, I was really happy and excited that I was going to speak English, which I love to speak every time,and I was going to chat with people from other countries and different cultures in English. After I was finally elected in GVC, I began to interact with other students from different classes and I started to get to know my teacher as well. It improved my English in a fun and exciting way. I learned more about justice myself, thanks to this wonderful project, GVC." - Tuna Tolu

"GVC was a great experience for me. Because I’ve learnt so much. Before GVC, I didn’t have a self confidence about that project.But now I am having so much fun! This project teaches me how to accomplish my responsibilities. I am so happy to be in this group. See you later!" -Cansu Orhan

"To be honest I wasn’t sure about joining the project or not. I was confused because I was difficult to believe that we would do the things our teacher said. But now I am really happy to be in the project because it helped me to improve myself. When I think about old me, I can understand how I changed. With the help of this project I can plan time better. My English, learnt a new culture… I’m happy to be in this Project and working with these amazing people." Zeynep Karahasanoğlu

"GVC taught me a lot. First of all I learnt how people fight for their rights and equality, then I learnt to work as a group. Lastly I learned to use Edmodo. It motivated me to work hard for what I want and I had no self confidence, now I can share my opinions with my friends. Also my English developed, while I was searching or discussing with my friends I improved my English. We had to work hard but I had so much fun while I work with my friends and I am so glad that I was in this project." -Nisan Amber Çakır
