SURVEY RESEARCH
This paper looks at the effects of globalisation in the area of English Purpose
Language Teaching (ELT) with specific reference to Turkey. It begins
with a conceptualization of the globalisation phenomenon in general. Research
We then move to how it relates to linguistic concerns and its impact on questions
how the English language is conceived. Here we deal with issues such
as English as an international language (EIL), the question of ownership
of such a language, the status of the native speaker as opposed to that of 5 issues
Three types of context are relevant for this study. They are:
- Globalization phenomena of English in the world in general. (P54-56)
- The environment of ELT in Turkey (the linguistic, cultural and teaching
environment). (P56-57)
- Institutional Context: ELT Department of 12 different universities in Turkey.

In conclusion, this questionnaire was conducted quite well despite no title in it.
The questionnaire was designed quite clearly and scientifically. The line spacing is
wide enough for the students to read and write. The questionnaire items all relate to
the direction.
The interview was conducted with our M.A. classmates to investigate their
teaching methodological preference. The interview took place lecture hall 401.
Three M.A. students were asked to answer some questions relating to their English
teaching methodologies. All of the participants have had at least 1-year experience
of teaching English as a foreign language. All of the participants are working in
Hanoi now. They all work at schools or universities in Hanoi. Their students
English proficiency ranged from Elementary, Pre-Intermediate, to Intermediate.
When being interviewed, all the M.A. students were willing to answer the
interviewers questions. Sometimes and some of them hesitated and wondered but
all were honest and frank when giving the responses. Although the answers from
the M.A. students were not the same, they preferred using CLT method in teaching
English language. Besides, the GMT and CTM were also added, but not preferred
as much as CLT. The data were collected and analysed by note-taking)
