If I were a jury member of the committee choosing the person of the year, I would definitely choose Dilek Livaneli. She is a teacher who was chosen "the Teacher to Make a Difference in His/ Her Profession" in 24th November 2012 by the Ministry of National Education. She was one of 50 best teachers, being nominated for the Global Teacher Prize. She carried out a project called "My School is Getting Younger" at Kumköy Primary School in Samsun where she was appointed to. She made huge differences in the lives of her students in both social and cultural ways. There were many things on the news regarding this innovative teacher. Still, there may be some who are not aware of her and I think everyone should get to know about her meticulous work and her passion to educate the kids in a whole different way. Besides, she is not just a teacher. She is also the person who enabled the kids in her school experience numerous things for the first time. For instance, she took them to the shopping mall, the zoo and the bowling hall. She also took all of her students to Samsun for the first time and helped them get familiar with the theatre, cinema, opera, museums and historical places. The first kite festival was organized by her for the students, which included all the people in the village creating handmade kites. Most importantly, she did not only educate the kids but also provided training for their mothers. She helped them get parenting education and gave them the chance to go to the cinema and opera, the places where she had never got the chance to go to. In conclusion, she is such an idealistic teacher that I think she should gain more recognition and deserves to be the person of the year. What is more, as someone who is going to be a teacher in the future, I consider her as my idol.
