Reflection:
Distance education, which has become a popular education of recent times, has
been a new initiative in the education community. Those who support this education and
those who do not support have justified reasons for them. In my opinion, distance
education will not be in every field but it is a useful education in general. Students have
the chance to get education and graduate from more respectable and quality educational
institutions without going to school. All of these developments are the result of
technological opportunities.

and loading them to CDs. The student had the chance to watch and repeat the things that
he did not understand at school. The fact that he had never learned to listen to the
unknown topic. However, the current distance education gives you a kind of class feel.
Especially in one-to-one lessons, students ask comfortable questions and find the
opportunity to ask again and again the places they do not understand. As I said before,
distance education is a good opportunity for students if not for every course. Distance
education has become a great advantage, especially for people who have to live in places
My school has a total of 17 different branches in different states. In one state there

the stage of thinking and could not begin with. not only the articles I have read, but also
the work of the master program. Participating in online training courses on behalf of self-
improvement in some areas that currently impact my career. I have a dream of attending
