3 tips on the road to teaching
Prof. Dr. İzzet Kara stated that he has 3 recommendations for graduates on their way to teaching, "First: never stay away from science and knowledge. Work in a planned and disciplined manner. Second: adopt respect and love as your motto in your professional life, especially love your students very much, even hide them from your eyes. Third: love your homeland very much, do not forget that the one who loves his homeland very much is the one who does his duty best."
