Abstract

The language of education has taken the attention of many stakeholders in recent years. In many countries, the use of language to teach academic subjects is different. In Central Asia, parents, students and academicians prefer Russian. In Turkey, elite universities have been teaching subjects through English. In Iran, students also opt for studying in English. The literature review has revealed that students prefer not to choose their first language as language of education due to some reasons. In this article, I will explore the factors for this matter.
