Hi, I'm Burak CANTÜRK,
I was born in 2003 in Yalova/Turkey. I completed my primary, secondary and high school life in Mersin province. I am currently studying distance education as a 2nd year student in Mersin University Computer Programming Department.
During primary school, my primary school teacher identified that I was unusual in science and mathematical thinking. Parallel to this, differences were detected in my social communication. In the Bilsem intelligence test conducted in the 4th grade of primary school, it was revealed that I was "gifted". In parallel to this, in 2015, it was determined that I had "Asperger's Syndrome".
I met "HTML" in the Informatics course in the 5th grade of secondary school. The moment I wrote my first "Hello World" was a turning point for me. Although my school life was not very suitable for me because I was different, I successfully passed all classes.
In parallel to this, my father, as someone who has developed many software projects and mentored in startups for many years, searched for a special course for me to progress in the field of software, which he thought I had a talent for, and when he could not find one, he launched the "Computer Programming for Children Gifted Coder Special Course" in May 2015, which is a first in Turkey for my education. In those years, my father had learnt in an article that having a programmer background for the treatment and education of asperger children led to the emergence of an extraordinary software talent in parallel with its therapeutic effect.
I studied my high school education at Private Yenişehir Mersin Final Anatolian High School with 100% Software scholarship.
Since 2015, apart from the "Gifted Coder Robotic Coding Course" for my education, we opened the "Programmers of the Future Coding the Future" association with my father in Mersin in 2017.
In this context, I am now 21 years old and I have been receiving training from very valuable trainers in the fields of computer programming and related technology for 8 years, and I have developed my own projects in the fields of software and robotics, and I have won 1st place in Turkey and the world. Experts in the field of software and robotics think that I have engineering level knowledge.

I have been teaching robotic coding for 5 years at Gifted Coder Robotic Coding Course, and for the last 2 years I have been giving private lessons to groups and individuals with my permanent (paid) programmer identity. I am still working as a consultant in technology-based projects of my own and the students I teach.
I took part in creating the content of 6 different coding and software books prepared by Gökhan SU, a Computer Engineer who is my instructor in Gifted Coder Turkey, and I made sure that my name was mentioned in the internal lyrics.
I have achieved many degrees with my team in Teknofest, TÜBİTAK and international technology-based competitions. I participated in English project presentations in international competitions.
I prepared for TOEFL English language level exam and SAT (Scholastic Aptitude Test) exams. I know English at B2 level.
In 2023, to open a limited liability company in Turkey called "Gifted Coder Technology"
I received an investment from KOSGEB R&D innovation programme and I applied for a Finnish Starup Visa to open a startup company in Finland and I was approved and granted a residence right for 2 years.
I will move to Finland on 08 March 2024 to implement the Eyes-HVAC autonomous air conditioning management system in Finland.
I have been trained and trained together for many years
