It was certainly the most challenging class I had to take at the time, but I was excited by the challenge. I chose to spend the next four years following high school at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign studying chemistry. My experiences inside and…

else. However, they do not see the pressure and stress it places on an individual’s shoulders. Contrary to making things easy for me, my intelligence has made it harder for me to find something I am passionate about. This would change when, as a high school freshman, I had the pleasure of meeting the “meanest” teacher in the English department. In spite of this frightening title she was the one who saw the potential in me and became my mentor. She pushed me to develop my analytical skills and to…

about family life student life conflict is quite new. Nevertheless, I am married with a man, who is doing PhD, for four years, and was working full-time in DC area for two years, before I started to the program. I am also from Turkey, and currently a graduate assistant in the same program. Actually, I was expecting some conflict in my life before I started to the PhD, but not that much!

By the time I was preparing for my 12th board practical examination I had quite figured out what I wanted to be or which one I would choose for something that would make me quite curious and also amaze me to a great extent that I wanted to learn more.

Master of Science in Education. My personal motivations for studying at Penn GSE are mainly based on professional growth factors since I am sponsored, by a Mexican governmental institution, to study in a top university in the U.S.; therefore, my graduate studies opportunities were limited to a specific country and institutions compared to my interlocutors. Regarding overseas former educational experiences, they were international exchange program and not for completing a whole degree. In…
