Heute haben wir den Tag so wie gestern, mit einem leckerem Frühstück gestartet, und sind wie üblich zur Schule gegangen.

Gestern haben wir die Schule, seine Lehrer und Schüler/-innen kennengelernt, aber heute haben wir uns schon so weit wir konnten, mit am Untterricht beteiligt.

Der erste Unterricht, den wir migrmacht haben war Biologie, den haben wir bei Baris (Naveeds Parenbruder) gehabt. Danach wurde es bisschen spannender, denn dann haben wir uns am Elektrotechnik Unterricht mitbeteiligt. Es hat mir sehr viel Spaß gemacht, aus folgendem Grund, weil wir zufällig das selbe Thema auf unserer Schule durchkauen, und haben somit auch direkt, an der Tafel ein paar Aufgaben bearbeitet.

Nach dem Unterricht, haben wir in der Kantine zu Mittag gegessen.

Danach haben wir unsere freie Zeit damit verbracht, um Tekirdağ noch ein bisschen zu besichtigen, unsere Patenbrüder haben uns zu drei Museen gebracht, die alle drei sehr interessant waren. Nicht zu vergessen, waren wir noch in einer Mosche die schon sehr alt aber trotzdem sehr schön ist.

Ein sehr erfolgreicher und interresanter Tag neigt sich somit dem Ende zu, da es schon spät wurde und es außerdem noch sehr kalt hier in Türkei ist.

Today started like yesterday peaceful and early but a lot colder than yesterday too, I started to talk to my foster brother Barisch a lot more, or at least tried too. Barisch and his familie sees to it that I feel as comfortable as possible which I do.

In todays classes we actually took part in the lesson, or as much as possible due to the language barrier. The difference in languages makes it a lot more difficult to get a grasp of what is happening even if you already worked on a similar topic. The subject was electronics and the primary thematic was ohms law and its calculations methods in different circuits.

The Qustions weren’t too difficult to do, the key to solve these type of Qustions is to do them repeatedly. It was an interesting lecture with a different atmosphere than the one I am used too.

Afterwards classes we went to some museums. We enjoyed the trip learning about the history of the poet Kermal and his journey, and story writter Rocezi Musefi and many others.

Then we went to the mall again to pass some time and went home.

It was a fun and eventfull day to the end.

I started the day by waking up at 07:00 am and getting ready to go to the technical college.  After hearing about our schedule yesterday I was excited to begin with it. We made a 0:30 min trip to the school from the place im staying at.

The transportaton system here is a bit chaotic compared the Gerrman system. You have to know your way around tekirdag or have someone who does to move about , or you will be lost.

The technical school I visit is called Tekirdag technical school. Its an old school which is training students since 1996 in many different areas. And today we started with a grand tour of the school, and its very many departments.

This technical school has many different areas of experties such as mechanical, electrical, IT etc. Students of different classes have different tasks such as 10 grade studen are gradually  introduced to their respective fields, where as 11 graders have more knowledge and experience than the lattet one, the 12 graders or graduating classes are capable of solving a certain level of problem only lacking proper real world experience.

The electric technical lessons are different in Turkey than Germany. In Germany you have to have a certain type of aptitude to be in the electronical field, where as in turkey you are eased into it by easy tasks, so a certain type of mentallity is built up over time. This is just my first impression as in how things are right now, and they will gradually change with more acquired information.

After classes we went to the tekirdag shopping mall and looked around. After an quick rest and change of clothes at home we went to lunch with the teacher’s and foster brothers. We had a hard but fun time.

Heute war ein sehr anstrengender, aber sehr interresanter Tag.

Voll ausgeschlafen, beginnen wir den Tag mit einem Frühstück, dann haben wir uns auch schon sofort auf dem Weg zur Schule gemacht.

Wir haben den Tag damit verbracht, um uns erst mal mit den Lehrern und Schülern, durch kleine Rundführungen durch die verschiedensten Abteilungen von Klassen und deren Fachgebieten kennenzulernen.

danach haben wir ein bisschen die Stadt besichtigt.

Später hatten wir dann ein Abendessen mit dem Stv. Schulleiter und ein paar Lehrern.

So wurde es dann spät, und für uns hieß es dann Feierabend.

We started our journey early on Sunday the 09.02.15 to Turkey, we arrived at 15-16 o’clock at the airport Attaturk in Istanbul,  and promptly made our way to the metro train station. After arriving in the  bus junction in Istanbul we bought Tickets to drive to tekirda. We had to wait an hour to board the bus, because the previous one was full. After spending roughly an hour on the bus, we finally arrived at our destination.

Exhausted as we were I thought that after arrving at the foster parent’s home I wouldn’t be able to greed them properly, due to the fatigue of being on the road for this long. After meeting the family my worries went away. Its such a caring and nice family that I forgot all my fatigue and started spending time with them, even though they didn’t speak english except the older brother Ozgür with whom i immediatly became friendly quickly.

He acted as the translater and made meeting the family a lot easier, he’s a University student in Ankarah and home over break. When he’s not around we mostly communicate using simple sign language or google translater.

Ich mache ein Auslandspraktikum, weil ich mir davon eine neue und wichtige Erfahrung erhoffe. Ich wünsche mir von meinem Auslandspraktikum, dass ich eine ganz andere Seite der Arbeitswelt kennenlerne. Für mein Auslandspraktikum nehme ich mir vor, gute Arbeit und viel Zufriedenheit von meinen Arbeitgebern. Während meines Auslandspraktikum möchte ich folgende Dinge lernen, ich möchte lernen in einer anderen Kultur gut mit den Menschen auszukommen und mich zu integrieren.

i am doing an international Intership in Turkey because i would like to learn about their culture and the difference in handling problems be it academical or just trivia so we can overcome the stereo typical barriers. I hope to learn new things from this experience and good understanding of the difference between our country’s.
