Student stories

What students say

“The pre-school teaching department runs a kindergarten right on campus, so my practice hours never required a commute. My mentor teacher wrote feedback on every single lesson plan I submitted.”

Maral BerdiyevaPre-School Teaching · Turkmenistan

“The English language teaching program at Maltepe put me in a real Istanbul classroom for observation in my third semester. Watching an actual teacher manage forty kids taught me more than any textbook.”
