About Us

Mesut, the founder of Global Yurtdışı Eğitim Danışmanlığı, first recognised the transformative impact of international education in young people’s lives during his own studies in the United Kingdom. Observing the institutional gap within the sector, he took his first steps toward establishing a professional presence in this field.

After graduating from the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at Istanbul Technical University, he brought his plans to life by creating a consultancy model built on accurate information, transparency, and trust.

With the aim of raising quality and reliability standards in the international education sector, he played a leading role in the establishment of the International Education Consultants Association (UED) and continues to remain an active member today.

By adopting reliable guidance, an ethical approach, and personalised planning tailored to each student’s needs as the core principles of the organisation’s culture, he now leads a team of experienced consultants who continue to operate in line with this vision.

Zeynep has been actively involved in the international education sector since 1989 as one of the founding members of Global Yurtdışı Eğitim and currently holds the position of Academic Program Director at our Beşiktaş office. 

With nearly 40 years of experience, she is a specialist in high school education in the UK and Switzerland. She provides premium one-to-one guidance to students throughout every stage of their journey, supporting them not only with school applications but also with course selection and long-term academic planning. 

Throughout her career, Zeynep has guided thousands of students across all areas of international education, including summer schools, language schools, high school programs, undergraduate studies, and postgraduate programs abroad. Over the years, she has also managed the operational and academic processes of the office, playing a key role in building the strong institutional infrastructure the organisation has today.

Zeynep graduated from the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at Istanbul Technical University. She also spent a year in the United Kingdom participating in various educational programs, gaining firsthand experience of studying abroad. The insights she gained during this period continue to shape the guidance she provides to her students today.

With her strong reputation in the sector, well-established relationships with partner institutions, and her perspective as a parent who has personally experienced the international education journey, Zeynep is a trusted advisor for families.

For Zeynep, the right guidance does more than help a student choose a school — it helps shape a direction in life. With this philosophy, she believes in the potential of every student and works closely with them to build the path that will allow that potential to flourish.

Over the course of her nearly 30 years of experience, she has guided thousands of students through their overseas education journeys.
