İngilizce Derslerinde Anadil Kullanımı Üzerine Bir Araştırma (Malatya İli Örneği)

Öz

Bu çalışmada İngilizce derslerinde anadil kullanımına ilişkin İngilizce öğretmenlerinin görüşlerini belirlemek amaçlanmıştır. Yabancı dil öğretiminde anadil kullanımı çok sayıda çalışmanın yapıldığı ve çoğu kez birbirinden farklı görüşlerin ileri sürüldüğü tartışmalı bir konu olarak günümüze gelmiştir. Öğretimin ana paydaşlarından olan öğretmenlerin konuya ilişkin görüşleri hem öğretimin doğrudan içinde olmalarından hem de yabancı dil öğrenme deneyimleri nedeniyle önemli görülmüştür. Öğretmenlerin önemli bir çoğunluğu (%61,7) şaşırtıcı bir şekilde anadilin İngilizce sınıflarında kullanılması gerektiği yönünde görüş bildirmişlerdir. Anadilin ne zaman kullanılması gerektiği konusunda ise katılımcıların yarısı özellikle dilbilgisi konularının öğretiminde anadilden faydalanmak gerektiği yönünde görüş bildirmişlerdir. Anadilin kullanılmaması gerektiği durumlar için ise ilk sırada (%23,5) konuşma ve dinleme aktiviteleri gelmiştir. İkinci sırada (%17,6) görüş bildirenler ise öğrenciler anlamasalar bile anadil hiçbir zaman kullanılmamalı yönünde görüş bildirmişlerdir. İngilizce öğretmenlerinin literatür ile benzer görüşlere sahip oldukları, ortak bir dile sahip olmanın avantajlarından faydalanmak gerektiği yönünde çoğunluğun görüş belirttiği görülmüştür.

Öz

This study has aimed to examine the opinions of English language teachers about the use of mother tongue in foreign language classes. The use of mother tongue in teaching a foreign language has become a controversial topic for ages, and different opinions have been put forward. As main shareholders of education, the opinions of English language teachers about the use of mother tongue in language classes have been accepted important as they are both directly in teaching activities and have the experience of learning a foreign language. Surprisingly, an important number of the English language teachers (%61,7) stated that mother tongue should be used in foreign language classes. Half of the participants stated that mother tongue should be used especially while giving grammar rules. About when not to use mother tongue, %23 percent of the participants stated that during the speaking and listening activities mother tongue should not be used. Some of the participants (%17,6) stated that mother tongue never be used even when they did not understand anything. English language teachers that participated to the study stated similar opinions with the literature that the advantages of speaking the same mother tongue with the students should be used in English language teaching.
