The purpose of
this study is to define the challenges that college students face during the
intensive English program and present the potential solutions. A previously
developed survey by Gökdemir (2005 pp251-264) was used for the quantitative
side and for the qualitative part, a number of interview questions were
prepared with the help of four experts and 32 students were randomly selected
and interviewed with the questions. The interview questions were analyzed as
qualitative assessment. The results revealed that the demographic variables are
not important for attitudes toward language learning. The students determined a
number of elements to be improved in the current curriculum, teacher’s and
learner’s competence along with physical environment for language learning.
Students also identified a number of challenges that they face while gaining
the language skills along with personal strategies to overcome such
challenges.  Heavy grammar based teaching
strategy and evaluation along with low level of native exposure and inadequate
student participation were the main problems listed by students.
