"His mark on our history of education is not little"

Dogrusoz, Kibris 5 Feb 99

Hakki Atun Leader of the
Parliament from letter to

Mrs Suzan Ari -22 Dec 92

His method was more than theoretic -it was all

thru his career ordinarily practised successfully

He taught in an acceptably cheerful atmosfere

~ the students learned easier, more and better,

both the subjects taught and good behaviour.

One of his jokes in teaching English was this:

"'Hurry up,' said the foreman to the Cypriot on
the roof; 'No,' said the Cypriot; 'Hurry up!' the
foreman repeated, and, 'No!' replied again the
Cypriot. 'Hey!..' shouted the foreman, 'Hurry
up, I say!"and the Cypriot responded, 'Oh..
boss, you no hear!?... No, I say, no! You no
see?! Harry no up here; Harry down -there!'"

He instilled appreciation
of culture as his method
ensured a higer level of,
approachability & trust

and sustained interest...

Home

" A successful modern educator ( ... ) he will
be, with love and respect, remembered always. "

He understood people...

'It was as though Mr. Ari
had known me all my life'
