Fremdsprachenerkenntnisse erwecken den kulturellen und beruflichen Horizont, sie wecken auch ein Verständnis für andere Kulturen. Mehrsprachigkeit ist grundsätzlich ein Vorteil.<br />
In Istek Schulen beginnt die zweite Fremdsprache in der 6. Klasse.<br />
 <br />
 <br />
Am 18. April 2011 wird ein Ausflug für 20 Schüler aus der 11.Klasse organisiert.Die Schüler haben die Rallye mit interessanten Fragen zu „deutschen Spuren“ auf den Straßen von Beyoğlu (Galatasaray bis Tünel) verbunden mit einem Besuch im Goethe-Institut und der Institutsbibliothek begonnen.<br />
 <br />
Die Stadtrallye&#8221;Deutsche Spuren in Istanbul-Beyoğlu&#8221; ist das Richtige für einen intersessanten und lehrreichen Deutschunterricht.<br />
Die zwei Siegergruppen werden im Institut mit tollen Preisen belohnt.<br />
Die Schüler haben diesen Tag sehr interessant gefunden.</p>
<p>Goethe Enstitüsü&#8217;ne gezi<br />
 <br />
 <br />
Almanca Avrupa&#8217;da en çok konuşulan ana dildir.Dil becerilerini geliştirmek, diğer kültürlerin anlayışını  kavramalarını sağlamak;  entellektül ve profesyonel ufuklarını genişletmektir.Çok dillilik bir avantajdır.<br />
 <br />
Bu anlamda İstek Okulllarında &#8220;İkinci Yabancı Diller Dil Eğitimi&#8221; olan Almanca 6. sınıfta başlar.<br />
 <br />
18 Nisan 2001 tarihinde 11. sınıflardan 20 öğrenci ile Goethe Enstitüsü&#8217;ne bir gezi düzenlendi.<br />
Öğrenciler  Beyoğlu&#8217;nda Goethe Enstitüsü&#8217;nden başlayıp Galatasaray&#8217;dan Tünel&#8217;e kadar süren gezi boyunca hazırlanmış soruları cevapladılar.<br />
&#8220;Die Stadtrallye&#8221;, öğrenciler için ilginç ve yararlı bir almanca dersi oldu.<br />
Kazanan iki grup enstitü tarafından ödüllendirildi.<br />
Öğrenciler bu günü çok ilginç buldular.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Istek Acıbadem Students Volunteer at </strong><strong>Hasan Tan Çocuk Yuvası (orphanage)</strong></p>
<p>By Lidija Krekman</p>
<p><a href="http://blogs.istek.org.tr/acibademforeignlanguages/files/2011/03/IMG00298-20110219-14323.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-409" title="IMG00298-20110219-1432" src="http://blogs.istek.org.tr/acibademforeignlanguages/files/2011/03/IMG00298-20110219-14323-300x225.jpg" alt="IMG00298-20110219-1432" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p> </p>
<p>A real buzz has been created at Istek Acibadem School amongst staff and students who volunteer weekly to provide free English lessons to grade 4 and 5 students at Hasan Tan Çocuk Yuvası (orphanage).</p>
<p>According to Arzu Altuntas, Head of the Foreign Languages Department at Istek Acibadem, as well as project initiator, and manager: “We are delighted with the enthusiastic and generous students who are volunteering their time and skills, as part of a unique opportunity to serve humanity.  By helping those destined with a less fortunate fate, they have made this project a resounding success.  Moreso, a huge note of gratitude and praise has been earned by our diligent grade four and five students who have demonstrated that you are never too young to show you care.”</p>
<p><a href="http://blogs.istek.org.tr/acibademforeignlanguages/files/2011/03/IMG00300-20110219-14375.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-411" title="IMG00300-20110219-1437" src="http://blogs.istek.org.tr/acibademforeignlanguages/files/2011/03/IMG00300-20110219-14375-300x225.jpg" alt="IMG00300-20110219-1437" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p>While Istek Acibadem High School students deliver the lessons under the attentive eye of their English teachers, the elementary grade students have been responsible for creating the yearly plan, providing materials for the lessons, and happily lending their own textbooks.  This experience has awakened these youngsters to the notion that volunteering meets genuine needs in their community.  They are being groomed, at an early age, to be active, foster high moral standards, and adapt characteristics which are pivotal to a positive, hopefully lifelong attitude of giving.  </p>
<p>While these student role models clearly make Istek proud, the true champions are those young people who so warmly welcome these volunteers with their precious smiles.  In the classroom, they demonstrate their eagerness by absorbing every word during the lessons taught with immense fervor, creating conditions teachers refer to as a work haven.  All of these little angels are representatives of the extraordinary, leaving all who work with them humbled, and inspired.  They have shown that sometimes those with nothing at all, are truly the richest of us, who have the most to offer.</p>
<p><a href="http://blogs.istek.org.tr/acibademforeignlanguages/files/2011/03/IMG00282-20110219-1416.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-413" title="IMG00282-20110219-1416" src="http://blogs.istek.org.tr/acibademforeignlanguages/files/2011/03/IMG00282-20110219-1416-300x225.jpg" alt="IMG00282-20110219-1416" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p>By being driven and passionate about volunteering, Istek students have had an opportunity to provide love and care for these children.  Immersing themselves in this rewarding experience has created unforgettable memories and proof that benefits of such actions are endless.  </p>
<p>We hope that the opportunity to learn a foreign language will serve as a booster of self sufficiency and future happiness, which will ultimately span a web of enthusiasts, eager to continue with social responsibility programs.  As for our little friends at Hasan Tan Çocuk Yuvası (orphanage), we can say that in our eyes they do not belong to everyone and no one, they belong to Istek.  They’ve carved their place into our hearts and have become a perpetual part of our community.</p>

The aim of EYP is to raise awareness of European issues, encourage active European citizenship, motivate students to get engaged in European politics and to provide a forum in which young people can express their own opinions, without reverting to role play. In order to better align itself with the International European Youth Parliament sessions, the selection conference which will be organized by Lycée de Galatasaray will be held in English.</span></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #800080;">Students taking part in the event should have fluent English, if they are to live this experience to the fullest.</span></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #800080;">8 students from İSTEK Acıbadem High School are attending this National Conference.</span></strong></span></p>

Konferansın ana dili, Avrupa Gençlik Parlamentosu normlarına uyabilmek amacıyla İngilizce olacaktır. Konferans katılımcılarının bu deneyimden en yüksek verimi alabilmeleri için akıcı bir İngilizce’ye sahip olmaları beklenmektedir. Katılımcı okullar konferansa en fazla 8 öğrenci ve 1 öğretmen ile katılabilecektir. İstek Acıbadem Okulları Münazara Klübü öğrencileri konferansa katılmak üzere hazırlıklarına başlamıştır.</strong></span></p>
