At B2, separate a settled decision from a request for information. The reading is an original, fictional resignation letter for language practice, not a document prepared for a real employment case. The linked formal-email lesson offers further practice with subjects, greetings and signatures.
The idea
Use ayrılma kararımı bildiriyorum to announce a decision, and keep practical questions in separate sentences. Görevimden ayrılmak names the position being left; işten ayrılmayı düşünüyorum only expresses that you are considering leaving. İhbar süresi means notice period. Ask about it with İhbar sürem hakkında bilgi verebilir misiniz?; this lesson calculates no deadline. The Ministry source explains the term and its legal context. A handover promise such as devredeceğim states what you will do next.

Watch out
Do not confuse işten ayrılmak (leave a job) with işten çıkarılmak (be dismissed). The second makes the worker the recipient of someone else’s action. Also, istifa dilekçesi names the document; writing that noun alone does not communicate who is leaving.
Try it yourself
The decision is final. Choose the verb that communicates it: bildiriyorum or düşünüyorum.
Show answer or example answer
bildiriyorum
bildiriyorum fits because the decision is already made and the sentence communicates it to the reader. Düşünüyorum would present it as something still being considered.
Add the appropriate case ending to görevim to say “leave my position”.
Show answer or example answer
görevimden
görevimden keeps görevim (“my position”) and adds -den: the position is what the speaker is leaving, rather than a destination.
Write the two-word Turkish term for “notice period”, ending in süresi.
Show answer or example answer
ihbar süresi
ihbar süresi names a period of time; istifa dilekçesi names a written document. The question asks for the interval, not the letter.
Complete the handover sentence with devretmek in the future tense, “I”.
Show answer or example answer
devredeceğim
devredeceğim promises a future handover by the speaker. In this form, the final t of devret- becomes d, and the k of the future ending becomes ğ before -im.

Write a fictional resignation letter of 80–100 words. State the decision, ask about the notice period and the last working day, and offer a specific handover action. Add a brief thank-you. Then underline the decision and circle the questions; keep invented dates separate from legal deadlines.
