(learners of Turkish) as a foreign language in listening, speaking, reading and
writing processes were investigated. For this reason, out of class language
learning environments and experiences used by 98 foreign students who completed
their Turkish education in Eskişehir Osmangazi University Turkish Teaching, Application

of geographical location. In this study, a case study format based on the
qualitative research approach is used. A focus group interview is used to
determine the language learning environments and experiences of the learners
and the data were explained through descriptive analysis. Data from the result
of the descriptive analysis show that out of class language learning
environments and experiences of the learners do not differ according to the
variable of geographical region; it is determined that out of class language
learning environments and experiences activities vary according to individual
differences. It is obtained that out of class activities change according to
individual differences. To improve their
language skills they used TV series, movies, music, and communicating with
Turks. They prefer to use social media for their writing skills. Out of the
