Kaş Summer English Language

Program

Program

Hi! My name is Azra Vatansever;
and I am the sole runner, creator, and leader of my “Kaş Summer English Language Program” a dedicated social project that I spent my 4 years throughout high school teaching low income and underprivileged school children English. My mission has been to reach out to these families, these children, to provide them with valuable skills that they can use to open doors to broader opportunities in their future careers.

Kind Regards

My Mission

The primary goal is to provide free, engaging, enjoyable, and immersive English lessons to the primary and middle school students of Kaş, Türkiye. I believe all students deserve access to the education of skills that will guide them to even stronger futures. Even more so when it comes to language, something that can foster self-confidence, curiosity, and cultural bond.

What I do

Every summer, I gather the same group, and additional members that join, in the Kaş Culture Center, and provide interactive lessons based on conversation, vocabulary, grammar, and comprehension. I do this through engaging games like Headbands, picture cards, telephone, and other verbal word games.

My Impact

Over the past four years, my project has been able to reach the lives of almost 30 children and their families. Throughout these years I’ve been lucky enough to go back and see their progress, increase in confidence, and expression of aspirations that were once very slim due to their lack of extended resources. This has not only been a life-changing experience for them but also for myself. And I will be forever grateful for them.

About Me

I was born in USA and now living in Florida, USA. My parents long years ago coming from Turkiye. As a child growing up, I had the opportunity to experience the interactions and differences of a wide range of languages and cultures during our trips and visits to Turkiye.

Why Kaş?

The pearl of the Mediterranean is a small town

Kaş was founded by the Lycians, and its name in Lycian language was Habesos. It was a member of the Lycian League and its importance city. In the 200s BC, the Lycian Federation had republican principles.

Centuries later, it attracted the attention of the framers of the United States Constitution and influenced their ideas.

Thank you for supporting the children in our community. We admire your effort to dedicate time each year to guide and spend time with children from diverse socio-economic backgrounds, helping them learn English. Words cannot explain how greateful we all here, thank you.
