English Language Teaching Programme
Language is the most important power that a person has to understand, explain and be understood in the life we live in, to achieve these goals. The importance of English, which has gradually become the “single common language” in our rapidly shrinking and globalizing multilingual and multicultural world, is indisputable. In our age, where digital access dominates almost every area of life and the transition from Generation Z to Generation Alpha is experienced, the importance of English, which constitutes seventy percent of the internet content, is increasing day by day in terms of following, comprehending the world and being an effective part of global processes. The English Language Teaching Program offers comprehensive education aimed at developing a solid awareness and sensitivity compatible with the learning skills of the 21st century, in line with the structure, concepts, culture and pronunciation characteristics of English as well as Turkish, in a global world where communication is predominantly provided through the English language. The education in the program is based on a functional balance where basic theoretical knowledge is reinforced with practice. In this respect, our students, who we train as qualified and professional teachers of the future, spend one day a week in primary schools and high schools for 2 semesters doing observations and practices. Practices are primarily carried out in Private Marmara Schools, which are located on our university campus and also where the teaching practices of the Faculty of Education are carried out, and in other schools around the university. Graduates of the English Language Teaching Program can continue their careers in relevant departments of universities by working as English teachers in private or state-affiliated educational institutions, as lecturers in Foreign Language Schools of universities, or by doing a master's or doctorate degree for those who prefer academic life.
