Social worker, educator is not a profession, it is a vocation which is possible not for everyone. They are invisible in everyday life, but their work requires enormous dedication, humanity and the boundless kindness. We can talk a lot about a social worker of the dormitory №14 of "KPI" whose name is Tukina Tetyana Andriyivna. Her way toward this profession was long and difficult. Tetyana was born in Cherkasy region and she was a late child. Her father was the head of the club, her mother was collective farmer, they were cherishing the daughter with great love and affection. But from an early age she was very independent.
T. A. liked reading, so her first education was in Kiev vocational school №6, specialty - typographer. After the graduation she worked in Kyiv at the book factory with the line casting machine. Later as the best specialist she was sent to the printer of Verkhovna Rada. She married and had a daughter. As her husband was a soldier, the family was always travelling throughout the country and were changing their residence. In 2006 they returned to Kyiv and Tetyana Andriyivna entered the Pedagogical University n. a. Dragomanov on the faculty of psychology. She graduated from the university and since 2012 she works a social worker, an educator at the Kiev Polytechnic campus.
Perhaps her father’s work had a great influence on T. A. and her subsequent career choice. "Who else could I be? - She says. - I always wanted to be engaged in cultural work, and eventually fate gave me a chance. I can not imagine myself without students, without my cooperation with them." This summer is her "first class". The students with whom she worked from the first course graduate from the university. She has become intimate with them, helped them to understand life situations, to find solutions, to show personal initiative, to use own labor and available resources Along with her, they grew not only as professionals, but as adult, independent, successful persons. "This is the daily hard work, but it is so nice and needed. I think I'm in a right position. My personal recipe for success is never stop, always improve and do not stand still - go ahead!" - Says she..
Her credo - every day is a gift of fate and should be given the meaning. She teaches her students in such a way. T. A. goes in for dancing and always admired it. Therefore large-scale events which she organized at the campus of "KPI" were devoted to dancing, a healthy lifestyle and beauty - "Viennese Ball", "Vernissage of dance", "Fairy of Beauty." Since her childhood T. A. knew that it is important to appreciate health and life. "My mother gave me the most valuable advice " - she recalls: "Daughter, take care of your health in order to your body serve long and gave no failures." Perhaps this is why teacher organizes activities aimed at promoting healthy lifestyle - trainings, discussions, lectures. "I want to see around a healthy body and spirit of young people! My main goal in working with students is to bring about a healthy lifestyle!" - Says T. A.
T.A.Tukina is an incredible woman, a loving mother, a creative person. She loves and respects her students. "Work brings me satisfaction and joy. I do the right thing," - says T. A.
