Abstract

The study aimed to reveal the level of English language ‎teachers' use of metacognitive skills while teaching. The study ‎sample consisted of 141 teachers to whom the MAIT scale was ‎applied (Balcikanli, 2011). The results showed that the level of ‎teachers' use of metacognitive skills was 3.23. Regarding the ‎dimensions, the mean averages were distributed as follows: the ‎monitoring dimension had a low level mean of 2.39, the ‎evaluation dimension had an average mean of 3.22, and the ‎planning dimension had a high level mean of 3.80. The results ‎also revealed that there was no difference in the mean averages ‎of the English language teachers' ratings on the instrument as a ‎whole due to gender, that there were differences in the mean ‎averages of the English language teachers' ratings on the ‎instrument as a whole due to the years of experience and in ‎favor of those (from 10 years and more), and that there were no ‎differences on each dimension of the instrument due to the ‎study variables.‎ (Keywords: Metacognitive Skills, English Language Teachers, ‎Planning, Monitoring, Evaluation)‎
