Middle East Technical University - METU Speciality : Education
programme: Education Studies and English

My initial response to being chosen to the FLE (Foreign Language Education) programme at METU was joy, as I always wanted to study in this field; and the university did not disappoint. First of all, the programme is multifaceted in terms of content; with its courses on linguistics, literature and ELT. This eventually ensures that students are well-versed in languages and how to learn them, as well as how to teach them. Other than that, the professors and research assistants are very knowledgeable in their fields, and they work hard to assist students in the best way. However, the good experiences are not limited to the programme, since the campus is very lively and beautiful; which makes living in the campus really enjoyable. There are multiple student organizations as well, which contributes to social life. In conclusion, I would say that my experiences are very positive with both the university and the programme.
