Research on perceptions of effective language teaching and learning is crucial for providing EFL practitioners with a better understanding of professional improvement in language teaching practices. It is seen that most of the studies conducted on this issue specifically dealt with foreign/ second language teachers’ or teacher candidates’ perceptions about it ignoring those of learners. So, the present study aims to scrutinize learners’ perceptions of EFL instruction delivered at higher education institutions. Accordingly, two groups of Turkish-speaking undergraduate students attending various programmes at a state university in Turkey were administered a scale composed both of Likert-type and open-ended items. It was primarily aimed to reveal whether students studying social sciences and those studying natural sciences significantly differ in their perceptions of foreign language education. The findings revealed that there is not such a difference between the two groups. The study reports findings obtained from the scale in detail, and implications for EFL instruction, and concludes with a couple of suggestions for further research.
