In this context, at fırst, it deals with reading techniques in poetry and their relevancy in teaching Turkish. In connection with that, various learning strategies are explained. At this point, employing the techniques of poetry reading could be developed as a successful strategy for language teaching. Because this way of education could be more enjoyable it eases the way of teaching and learning. Using the conventions of poetry reading might be an important strategy in teaching Turkish.
