            In the early 1950s, around 50 well-known businessmen from Izmir came together with the aim of establishing a boarding school which would provide education to children – starting from the age of 12 until 17 – almost completely in English as it was believed to be a great need for Turkey in those days. After some research, they found Edmond Giraud’s, a wealthy Frenchman of the time,  private property suitable for their aim. The property was 220 acres covered with magnificent pine and palm trees and various other kinds, and which was only 2 kilometres away from the Bornova town centre, Izmir.

 The action of understanding, being aware of, being sensitive to, and vicariously experiencing the feelings, thoughts, and experience of another of either the past or present without having the feelings, thoughts, and experience fully communicated in an objectively explicit manner
Empathy is the experience of understanding another person's condition from their perspective. You place yourself in their shoes and feel what they are feeling. Empathy is known to increase prosocial (helping) behaviors. While American culture might be socializing people into becoming more individualistic rather than empathic, research has uncovered the existence of "mirror neurons," which react to emotions expressed by others and then reproduce them.]]> 2018-02-25 12:52:31 UTC https://padlet.com/melisagurakar13/BAL/wish/235082717 melisagurakar13 https://padlet.com/melisagurakar13/BAL/wish/235082870 WHAT IS EFFECTIVE LISTENING?
For people who have not done public speaking, it may seem like speaking before a crowd is different than speaking, say, to a friend over a mocha latte. But really, it is quite the same. If you think of an audience as a group of individuals gathered in one place, then you will understand why it is so important to listen to each member as an individual. 
Let's break this down. When you are chatting with a friend, your focus is on the conversation. You nod at the right times and respond with feedback in appropriate measure. 
All of these behaviors tell your friend that you are interested in what she has to say. That is effective listening, and it really means hearing the message being sent, making meaning of it and responding in a way that lets the sender know you truly understand.
