Yaşar Kurun

I started teaching in 2000 and I have been teaching IB since 2007. Over the course of my teaching career, I have served in a variety of capacities, one of which was responsible for implementing and managing the Diploma Program. I now freelance as a consultant for students, parents, and teachers. I also teach Biology, TOK, ITGS, and Environmental Systems and Societies. I also teach biology at the AS and A levels for Cambridge International.

I am particularly interested in digital technologies, and I am a firm believer in combining traditional and innovative teaching methods. My interest in digital technology forced me to go back to university and I enrolled in the Management Information Systems graduate programme.

In the past I have authored many curriculum materials for the institutions I work for. Recently I took the editorial role for the international sciences curriculum (in English) prepared for a different country and also authored the whole biology modules from grade 7 to 12.

As a dedicated member of the teaching community, I have a strong belief in the mission of education in societies. With the experience I have gained from the previous years in IB, I am trying to be a model teacher, an enthusiastic learner and an academic leader.
