Bu çalışma, Türkiye’de imam hatip ortaokullarında, imam hatip liselerinde ve diğer mesleki ve teknik liselerde yaygın olan tek cinsiyetli sınıflarda İngilizce öğretimine ilişkin İngilizce öğretmenlerinin algılarını araştırmaktadır. Araştırmada nitel araştırma deseni kullanılmış, üç farklı imam hatip lisesinden sekiz İngilizce öğretmeni ile yarı-yapılandırılmış görüşmeler yapılmıştır. Öğretmenlerden üç tanesi kız, bir tanesi erkek, dört tanesi ise ayrı ayrı hem kız hem erkek sınıflarına ders vermektedir. Katılımcı öğretmenlerden toplanan veriler dil öğretiminde tek cinsiyetli sınıfların avantaj ve dezavantajları yönünden analiz edilmiştir. Araştırma bulguları, materyal tasarımcılar, müfredat geliştiriciler ve dil öğretmenleri için pedagojik uygulamalara ışık tutabilir.

This study examines English language teachers' perceptions regarding teaching English in single-sex classrooms prevalent in religious vocational secondary schools, high schools, and other vocational and technical high schools in Türkiye. The study employs a qualitative methodology, utilizing semi-structured interviews with eight English teachers from three different religious vocational high schools. These teachers instruct classes in female-only, male-only, and both male and female classrooms separately. The data collected from the participant teachers was analyzed in regard to the advantages and disadvantages of single-sex classrooms in language teaching. The findings of this study may provide insights into pedagogical implications for policy-makers, curriculum developers, material designers, and language teachers.
