My New School 2014 -- Üsküdar University, Istanbul

Well, it's that time here in Istanbul, Turkey.  The new school year 2015-15 is upon us folks!  I just spent the last two weeks getting to know some wonderful new teachers I will be working with at my new school here in my home city of Uskudar, Istanbul.  I am really excited!! The Administration are serious people about English Language education.  My fellow teachers here are so nice.  We have been having fun and also learning some valuable information, and participating in the process of getting ready the placement exam materials, plus analyzing our textbooks we will use this year.  So far I am very, very impressed with the level of education and enthusiasm...
