Due to the number of options based on distance education, it is aimed to provide a higher quality to service users. One of the important methods to increase the quality of distance education services is SWOT analysis. SWOT Analysis enables organizations to see their strengths (S) and weaknesses (W) and position them according to Opportunity (O) and Threats (T) that may occur in the external environment. The method of this research is phenomenology, one of the qualitative research methods. The study group of the research was selected by purposeful sampling technique. The analysis forms were collected from the lecturers via digital mail on a voluntary basis. Therefore, the study reached 48 instructors teaching Turkish as a foreign language in different regions of Turkey. In the research, a SWOT analysis form (4 questions) was used to understand distance education practices. The data were analyzed using content analysis and descriptive analysis technique. According to the results, the strength of teaching Turkish as a foreign language in distance education is “flexibility in time and place” with a ratio of 58% . Again, \"flexibility in time and space\" was evaluated as an opportunity with a rate of 42% . The weakest aspect of teaching Turkish in distance education seems to be\"technical problems\" with a rate of 29% . The instructors rated the “lack of the classroom environment” as the biggest threat with 30% . Finally, it can be asserted that the findings of the study sheds light on distance education practices in the Covid 19 pandemic process in terms of teaching Turkish to foreigners.  \nKeywords: Distance Education, SWOT Analysis, Teaching Turkish as a Foreign Language  \nDOI: 10.29329/epasr.2020.334.8  \n1Mete Yusuf Ustabulut, Assist.

Roland Christensen. SWOT analysis emerged in 1982 in Heinz Weilrich's article titled \"The TOWS Matrix, a Tool for Situational Analysis\" as the initials of Strength (S), Weakness (W), Opportunities (O) and Threats (T) to examine internal and external factors as a new analysis method in strategic planning (Weilrich, 1982, p.54) .  \nS: Strength (detecting strengths / superiorities)  \nW: Weaknesses (detecting weaknesses)  \nO: Opportunities (expressing opportunities)  \nT: Threats (expressing threats and dangers)  \nThe main function of the SWOT Analysis as a strategic analysis phase is to eliminate weaknesses (W) with strengths (S) and threats (T) with opportunities (O) by revealing the strong and weak points while evaluating the current situation (Öztemel, 2001, p. 158) . The factors emerging as a result of the SWOT analysis (Luo & Qin, 2012, p.254; Panigrahi & Mohanty, 2012, p.41; Büyükalaca et al., 2009, pp.29-31) are as follows:  \nStrengths: It is the answer given to the question of what we do well by making the active use of resources to achieve goals, objectives, assets and capabilities that have superiority/power over competitors and must be protected and be at the forefront. With strength aspect, answers are sought for questions such as ‘What are our advantages and strengths?, What resources do we have?, What are the differences that distinguish us from others?, What are our advantages and strong point from the outside?  \nWeakness: The economic resources lost as a result of deficiencies, weaknesses, mistakes and constraints in achieving the goals and objectives, competitive advantage a","cbCaiu2tVJTjTPNb","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiu2tVJTjTPNb","pdf",456772,14,"English","# Introduction\n## SWOT Analysis framework (S, W, O, T)\n## Strengths\n## Weaknesses\n## Opportunities\n## Threats\n## Purpose and use of SWOT analysis in strategic interpretation","[{\"question\":\"What method does the study use to analyze distance education practices?\",\"answer\":\"The study uses SWOT analysis combined with phenomenology, a qualitative research method.
