Intership in MykolaivSibel Gyuleyman

Social project “World without Borders”(July-August 2010)

Job description:This year, I attended to AIESEC program and I went to UKRAINE for a summer camp. I took care ofchildren who are among 7-16 years old and I gave presentation to the children about Turkey end Turkishculture; traditional foods, clothes, dances, music, life style, educational system, history…etc.

The other interns presented their tradition also. All of the interns talked with each other about religion,history, sports, technology and art. We taught some dances, games and foreign words to children.

Job description:

During this project improve myself on my language skills. When I went to Ukraine at first, couldn’t speak English. In my last days I was able to understand different accents and answer them back.

All those experiences make me to contact easier with the children than before and share more.

Some words about development:

To join this project has been being effective on me very much. I learned new things about other cultures and

share something about other cultures and share something about Turkish culture also. It is so exiting andFunny! I tried to teach some Turkish words to children and I learned some Russian and Ukrainian words.

My impressions from the project:

In my opinion Mykolaiv is one of the most beautiful cities in Ukraine. It has a lot of trees and it is near BlackSea. So there are a lot of beaches. It is calm and ordered.

The transportation is so easy. You can goeverywhere by bus and electric train.

There are a big zoo, four universities and some yacht clubs.

My impressions of the city:

Local Committee AIESEC in MYKOLAIV solved my trouble in Ukraine. They host us very well. Thanks to them, we ate delicious Ukrainian foods and slept in comfortable beds

They had never left us alone and took care of us. Ukrainians are so kind, helpful and friendly. Only some old people sometimes were rude. Even then I have made a lot of friends from Ukraine.

The youth can speak English because of universities. If you don’t have the friends from Ukraine outside, you have to cope with difficulties and you have to learn some Russian and Ukrainian words.

My impressions of the Local Committee and people:

I would like to go abroad by AIESEC program and I have tried it more than one year. AIESEC from Local Committee BURSA helped me so much and they find optimum place for me. Both of the AIESEC society really work multidisciplinary. Since I went to Ukraine they always keep on touch. They figure out my problems from Turkey through the internet or telephone and contacted Local Committee AIESEC in MYKOLAIV .

My gratitude:

All of the AIESEC workers have the responsibility on their work and I suppose that they willbe more successful in the future. Thanks to Local Committee AIESEC in BURSA and Local

Committee AIESEC in MYKOLAIV so much for everything!
