My name is Rabia İrem Demirci. I was born in a cold autumn evening on October 11, 1996, in Samsun, a beautiful  city on the Blacksea region in Turkey with  charming ancient places and a scenic coastline, as the third child of my family. My parents moved to Samsun about 25 years ago, thus I have been living in Samsun since I was born. We are a family of six: my parents, my brother, two sisters, and me. I have grown up in a lovely extended family, thus I enjoyed a childhood of stability and peace.

I have always been a good student, but not frequently an A-student in my school life. While I was growing up, I always dreamed of becoming a teacher and the adventure began in Atakent Primary School and then went on with Köksal Ersayın Anatolian High School, which was one of the best high schools at that time. I am always a fan of language classes so I took English classes for three years and I graduated from this high school in 2014. Then, I attended English Language Teaching department of Gazi University, Ankara. After a year of preparation class, I continued my education at the Ondokuz Mayıs University, Samsun, in my hometown, as an undergraduate transfer student. As well as English Language Teaching, I am studying International Relations as open courses at Anadolu University. I chose to study at this department as a second department because I am passionate about examining relations and non-verbal channels among human beings and countries and fortunately, this passion helped me gain profound knowledge in some areas.

Studying in some fields and devoting my free time to reading scholarly reviews, watching interviews with recognized specialists in the field, travelling, meeting friends, doing Muay-Thai, playing violin and singing songs are some of my hobbies. I like being all-round person very much because it is the way I live and I know working hard to pursue our goals and keeping a positive attitude are the qualities that help us when we are required to maintain a level-headed in times of success and failure. These are the tools, which help us overcome the toughest phases in life.
