Introduction and purpose of the study Cartoon has a universal form of expression that brings an even more important position in teaching Turkish as a foreign language. Because students may be anywhere in the world when they look at cartoons they can find anything from them and can express their thoughts according to their Turkish level. This study is intended to put forward availability of cartoon as a visual tool in the development of Turkish writing and speaking skills of Yemeni students. In the study has been sought answer for the following questions: 1. Is Cartoon an effective tool as a visual material in developing writing skills of Yemeni students? 2. Is Cartoon an effective tool as a visual material in developing speaking skills of Arab students? In recent years, along with the changing conditions It emerged the necessity of learning a second language and in this axis foreigners interested in Turkey want to learn Turkish. Therefore, Turkish education field to foreign has come to a location that should be heeded and studied. Thus Turkish language teaching to foreigners, field experts compared to the past began more heeded, thought on how best to do teaching Turkish as a foreign language and in line with the new approach modern designs are being created. At the begining of mentioned the design, visual materials (cartoons, paintings, photographs, films, etc.) come.

It helps teaching in simple and self-explanatory way of the incident, event and objects (Çilenti, 1984; Demirel, 2004; Hesapçıoğlu, 1992). In other words, embodies the teaching, increase the motivation level of students and most notably it adds to the richness of the teaching-learning process. Visual elements allow to mobilize a number of cognitive processes such as storage for recognising the visual identity of the object or entity, naming and using when it is in the memory (Sever, 2007: 18). It can be said that this aspect of the cartoon is very effective and useful material in the words teaching, in teaching the existence of names and the concept of teaching. On the other hand a universal language that has the cartoon, can be interpreted as a positive situation in terms of education. Because video messages, are resolved in the mind easier.
