Abstract (2. Language): 
The purpose of this study is to examine the thoughts, feelings, and dilemmas and to describe how a Turkish teacher aide created or reshaped her professional identity in the light of her experience in an American preschool educational setting. A descriptive case study method was employed in the study to gain in-depth understanding of the issue. Using purposive sampling a Turkish teacher aide was selected to participate in the study. The data was collected through a semi-structured interview. The results revealed that her teaching practice has been heavily influenced by a collectivistic society’s points of view but her current identity has been shaped with the new perspectives she gained in the U.S.

Bu çalışmanın amacı bir Türk yardımcı öğretmenin bir Amerikan sınıfında edindiği tecrübelerin onda yarattığı duyguları düşünceleri, ve ikilemleri inceleyerek mesleki kimliğinde yaşadığı değişikliklikleri ortaya koymaktır. Olay hakkında derinlemesine bilgi edinilmesini sağlamak için betimsel vaka incelemesi metodu kullanılmıştır. Çalışma için, amaca dayalı örneklem yöntemi kullanılarak bir Türk öğretmen yardımcısı seçilmiştir. Veriler yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme tekniği ile toplanmıştır. Ortaya çıkan sonuçlar yardımcı öğretmenin öğretmenlik uygulamalarının kollektif toplum görüşünden derinlemesine etkilendiğini fakat bu uygulamaları ve kimliğini Amerika’da elde ettiği kazanım ve deneyimlerle değiştirdiğini göstermiştir.
