Having a job with Vocational Education despite my disabilities

Hello, my name is Nuriye Taş. I graduated from the Fashion Design Department  of the Adıyaman Technical and Vocational High School for Girls in Turkey. My life in Adıyaman was very difficult.

I could neither read nor write and some of my teachers were not supportive - until I came to this high school. My teachers there helped me to progress. Thanks to them, I gained new knowledge and finished in the Fashion Design Department of Binali Yıldırım University in Erzincan.

I now have a good position at Can Tekstil, an integrated woven fabric producer. I owe this to my dearest teacher Şükran Coşkun. She gave me the best education and not only – she became like a mother to me, and then became my companion in this process.

Thanks to her, I am at Can Tekstil and I’m happy.
