Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı, İstanbul, Türkiye’deki vakıf kâr amacı gütmeyen, özel üniversitelerinin İngilizce Hazırlık Programlarında çalışan İngilizce Okutmanlarının duygularının iyi olma durumlarına etkisini bulmaktır. Karma yöntem araştırma tasarımı olan bu çalışma, spesifik olarak yabancı dil olarak İngilizce öğreten okutmanların en çok hissettikleri duygu durumlarını pozitif ve negatif , deneyim yılının duygularını ne ölçüde etkilediklerini ve son olarak da katılımcıların duygu durumlarındaki değişikliklere yönelik görüşlerini araştırmayı hedeflemektedir. Nicel veriler toplam beş farklı İngilizce Hazırlık Programı’nda görev yapan 66 İngilizce okutmanından Chen 2016 tarafından hazırlanan Öğretmen Duygu Ölçeği aracılığıyla toplanırken, nitel veriler katılan okutmanların 28’i tarafından yazılan duyguları hakkındaki görüşlerini bildirdikleri yansıtıcı metinlerden alınmıştır. Çalışmanın bulguları; katılımcıların çoğunlukla pozitif duygular hissettiğini göstermektedir. Ek olarak, kıdem yıllarının da katılımcılarının sadece neşe duygusuna olumlu bir etki yarattığı bulunmuştur. Ancak, öğrencilerinin, özel yaşamlarının ve iş yerlerinin de okutmanların duygularını ve iyi olma durumlarının etkileyen önemli faktörler olduğu bulunmuştur. Sonuçlara göre, hazırlık okullarında pozitif duyguların gelişmesine yönelik öneriler çalışmanın içinde sunulmuştur
