- Abstract
Communication is a key element in instruction. Teachers and students convey messages by both verbal and non-verbal cues. Since teacher has a dominant role in the classroom; non-verbal cues of teachers have a great influence on the effectiveness of instruction. Therefore, this paper mainly discusses about the effects of non-verbal communication on college English classroom management in Turkey. The research focused on the perceptions of teachers about classroom management and students' reactions against teachers' non-verbal communication strategies. Case study was used as a research design. The study group consisted of 6 teachers. The data gathered through interviews and observations. The results showed that teachers consider the classroom management as a peaceful atmosphere, respect, and non-verbal communication. Teachers use non-verbal communication to prevent or to encourage some behaviors. Students accept or refuse the non-verbal communication. The research was conducted within a Turkish context. So, some pedagogical implications of the results were also discussed
