About the Program

English Language Teaching prepares students to teach English as a foreign language to learners of different ages and proficiency levels. Coursework typically covers linguistics, second language acquisition theory, curriculum design, classroom management, teaching methodology, and assessment of language skills. Students study the structure of English grammar and vocabulary alongside pedagogical approaches for developing reading, writing, listening, and speaking abilities in learners. Practicum placements in schools give students supervised classroom teaching experience, allowing them to apply lesson planning and instructional techniques with real students before graduation. Graduates work as English teachers in primary and secondary schools, language institutes, and higher education settings, as well as curriculum developers and educational materials writers. Some pursue further study in applied linguistics or education. This bachelor program is offered at Yeditepe University in İstanbul, Turkey, and is taught in English over a duration of 4 years, combining language study with structured teaching practice.
