The desired outcomes of educational systems necessitate higher levels of quality in
the structure of each undergraduate degree programme of the higher education
institutions. Assessing the quality of the departments on the basis of reconciled
terms in accordance with the national objectives necessitates a systematic internal
evaluation procedure for the programme components as a crucial asset for
improvement and maintenance of quality. In terms of the quality in the foreign
language teacher education programmes, raising qualified language teachers have
an increasing value over the improvement of the learners’ language profiles since
the teachers substitute a critical asset in arousing interest of learners, raising their
competences and attainments towards languages. This master’s thesis aims to
evaluate the efficiency of English language teacher education programmes in
Turkey with sets of principles through preservice teachers` perceptions. The study
was conducted at 4 undergraduate English Language Teacher Education
programmes in Turkey with 116 preservice teachers from Hacettepe, Ufuk,
Sabahattin Zaim, and Sakarya University. Throughout the mixed method research
design, the quantitative data was collected with 4 questionnaires designed by the
researcher while for the qualitative data, in-depth interviews were utilized. The
quantitative results indicated that most of the preservice teachers were satisfied with
the efficacy of their departments` curriculum, its training in knowledge and
understanding, strategies and skills, and values. On the other hand, the qualitative
findings proposed some suggestions like rearranging the proportion of theory and
practice, increasing connections with other departments and encouraging teacher
educators and school mentors for professional development.
