Özet (Çeviri)
The aim of this study is to explore the self-perceptions of NNEST participants on a CELTA course in Turkey. The participants were interviewed to find out where they placed themselves on the NS/NNS continuum; whether their experiences of CELTA or other experiences appear to have influenced their self-perceptions on the NEST/NNEST debate; and whether they perceived any strengths and shortcomings in being NNESTs. Research on NNESTs is growing due to the NNS movement (Braine, 2010) and growing interest in these teachers who are the majority in the world of English Language Teaching (Canagarajah, 1999: 91). Despite the raising awareness on the matter and changes in the field, NNESTs can still face rivalry, prejudice and discrimination (Braine, 2010: 11). Research on NNESTs needs to consider the differences in characteristics of local teaching settings (Llurda, 2006:3), for the NNEST issue may stand at a different point in each context. This study examines the Turkish context where English is a foreign language in order to explore perceptions on being NNESTs in Turkey. Additionally, the study brings the Turkish teaching context and the CELTA course together. CELTA has become popular in Turkey in the recent years and the applicability of the course in an EFL setting with NNESTs may be questionable for this course was originally intended for British NSs (Ferguson and Donno, 2003: 27). Data for this study was gathered through semi-structured interviews via Facebook messaging. 4 Turkish teachers of English who had been CELTA trainees in Turkey took part in the study. The majority of the participants stated not to have encountered issues on the course due to being NNESTs, however, one participant noted discrimination and favouring of NSs. Teaching practices, students' reactions and the CELTA course were mainly listed as the key experiences that shaped participants' thoughts on the NEST/NNEST debate. NNESTs and NESTs were stated to have different strengths and shortcomings which made them different, but not superior. Shared L1 with students stood out both as a problem and as the cause of strengths. Qualifications and education were listed as important factors which determined success in teaching. Further research on NNS CELTA trainees is recommended for this was a small scale research. Additionally, perceptions of NNESTs' in Turkey can be explored as research on this topic in the specified context is limited although it is a growing ELT market.
