Abstract:

Teaching Turkish as a foreign language hasn’t been a subject sufficiently for academical studies. Faculties of education have started to give place to lesson of “teaching Turkish to foreigners” in curriculums. This is a gladsome news but also inadequate. Likewise several universities have opened graduate programs it’s promising as well. We won’t be reached to the purpose until we see “Teaching of Turkish as a foreign language” as a discipline in universities. New curriculums which consider the important role of language in communication, advances in the field of foreign language teaching, the needs, demands and situations of foreigners who want to learn Turkish and, take into account learning difficulties should be prepared
