"Küçük hanımlar, küçük beyler! Sizler hepiniz geleceğin bir gülü, yıldızı, bir mutluluk parıltısısınız! Memleketi asıl aydınlığa boğacak sizsiniz. Kendinizin ne kadar mühim, kıymetli olduğunuzu düşünerek ona göre çalışınız. Sizlerden çok şeyler bekliyoruz..." Mustafa Kemal Ataturk

//"Little ladies, little gentleman, // //Each and every one of you are the rose and the star of the future, glitter of happiness, //  //You are the actual ones who will bring// enlightenment to //our country,//   //Realize how precious and important you are, and work accordingly, //  //We have very high expectations from you!" //





My dear B1 students, I have prepared this webpage so that you can continue studying English in your break as well. I would like you to keep up your good studying habits not only during school but also in your break. First of all, if you check the right side of the home page, you could see all the grammar points which are covered in the B1 level. If you click on those links and study regularly, things will be a whole lot easier in B2 since you will be continously revising them and remembering them once you get to the next level. You will find a lot of useful links and videos on this webpage through which you can get better and better in using English. Please take your time to explore it because I am sure that you will have so much fun :). Also, please check our discussion board section where we can communicate with one another to practice our English and exchange our ideas. You are welcome to send me any video, audio, etc. that you want me to post here. If I find them appropriate, I will gladly post them here. This is the homepage where we can post videos, audios, posters, tables, polls etc... The address of the external website which I would like you to focus on is []. This is a remarkably good website so make sure you check it out! There are many more useful websites which I posted in our discussion board section as well. For the time being, we have 8 discussions going on, so please join the discussions. Using Turkish will not be accepted and those messages will be deleted because this is an English-only zone. Before I forget, enjoy your break!!
