Özet:

In this study, teachers’ candidates determined the level of writing anxiety and studied whether their anxiety vary according to gender and class level. There are also reasons for writing concerns discussed with 12 teachers candidates, including three people from each class level. In the research, the qualitative and qualitative research methods were used together from the karma method patterns. The scale of Writing Anxiety was used to obtain quantum data, while for quality data it was used a semi-configured conversation form. The participants consist of 194 teachers candidates who studied in a Turkish teaching program at a state university in 2016. The study found that the teaching concerns of teachers were low, and that the writing concerns did not differ significantly by gender and class level. The worries of teachers candidates with writing concerns have been found to be due especially to the insufficiency perception, the worries of assessment, the subject to be written, the writing environment and the time dedicated to writing.
