This document outlines a study conducted by Ali Karakaş at Southampton University that examined lecturers' perceptions of their own English abilities and language use at English-medium universities in Turkey. The study surveyed 33 lecturers across 3 universities using an online questionnaire. The results showed that lecturers generally rated their English proficiency as good or excellent, though some reported difficulties with speaking fluency. Lecturers' goals for academic language skills emphasized competence over native-like proficiency. They viewed Turkish students' English abilities less positively than non-Turkish students'.
