An Investigation into the Employment of English Language Teachers in the Private Sector in Turkey

Year 2019, Volume: 3 Issue: 1, 1 - 13, 31.12.2019

Abstract

English language teaching (ELT) and the training of English language
teachers have long been important issues in Turkey. However, the related
discussions and studies about ELT and English language teachers have mostly
concentrated on the systems and issues in the public education sector. Aiming
to fill this gap about the involvement of the private sector, this qualitative
study intends to find out details concerning the role of the private sector in
terms of the employment of English language teachers. To this end, the document
analysis method was adopted and the keyword ‘İngilizce öğretmeni’ (English
language teacher) was scanned in detail on kariyer.net,
a popular job advertisement website in Turkey. The obtained 173 relevant
advertisements were then put into content analysis in terms of variables
including city distribution, experience preferences, nationality preferences,
graduated programme preferences, certificate preferences, place of employment,
working hours, and special features. The findings have been presented in
detailed tables and interpreted with reference to the research questions of the
study.
