Bu araştırmanın amacı, üniversite eğitimi almak için Türkiye’ye gelen yabancı uyruklu öğrencilerin, Türkçeyi öğrenirken nasıl bir süreç yaşadıklarına dair bilgi sahibi olmaktır. Bu çalışma, nitel bir araştırmadır. Araştırmanın örneklemi belirlenirken ölçüt örneklemeden yararlanılmıştır. Bu araştırmanın ölçütünü, 2013–2014 eğitim öğretim yılında Gazi TÖMER’de Türkçeyi temel seviyede öğrenen Tanzanyalı öğrenciler oluşturmaktadır. Araştırma verileri, doküman incelemesi ve odak grup görüşmesi ile toplanmıştır. Yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme ile toplanan veriler tümevarımsal kodlama tekniği ve betimsel analiz yöntemiyle çözümlenmiştir.
