Abstract

Considering the significant role of English Language Teacher Education (ELTE) programs on future English teachers’ teaching skills and eventually on the English proficiency of future generations, the present study investigated some statistics concerning the academics and students of these programs. All the statistics were gathered from YÖK Atlas, a website initiated by Council of Higher Education (CoHE) in Turkey. The data were analyzed to find out the differences between public and private universities’ ELTE programs, and to find out correlations among various elements of the ELTE programs regardless of the type of universities. The findings revealed the superiority of the ELTE programs at public universities over the ones at private universities on various aspects. However, students’ decreasing number of ELTE program preferences in recent years at both public and private universities were among the major findings of the present study. Moreover, some positive correlations among the variables were reported. The findings were discussed in the light of the related literature.
