Yabancı Dil Olarak Türkçe Dinleme ve Konuşma Becerilerinin Gelişiminde Filmlerin Kullanımı

The main purpose of foreign language teaching is communication and socialization. Listening and speaking skills come to the fore compared to reading and writing in ensuring communication and socialization. As no production takes place without raw materials, no speaking occurs without listening. Films are one of the most essential materials enabling the development of listening and speaking skills. The purpose of this research is to explain how teachers of Turkish as a foreign language should use films to contribute to the development of their students' speaking and listening skills. In this study, the data was obtained through document review, which is one of the methods of qualitative data collection. It has been concluded that films, which appeal to more than one sense, are fun, interesting and mirror the everyday language, are effective in providing both motivation and continuity of linguistic messages in teaching Turkish as a foreign language. This indirectly supports the development of listening and speaking skills. Key Words: teaching Turkish as a foreign language, listening and speaking skills, material, film.
