This article presents a description of the process of adapting the toolkit to the Kazakh language, dedicated to measuring attitudes towards the professional status of a teacher in a sample of teachers working in secondary schools in the city of Astana.The process of adapting the toolkit included the following steps: 1) scale translation; 2) application of the scale on the sample; 3) the use of confirmatory factor analysis and interpretation of the obtained values.Translation of the scale from the original into the Kazakhwas done by thirteen doctoral students and researchers studying in Turkey and have fluent academic Turkish at the C1/B2 level. To translate the scale into Kazakh, a traditional scale adaptation approach was chosen. The scale, translated into Kazakh, was carried out for a sample (n=614) of the study.Confirmatory factor analysis was used to confirm the factorial structure of the scale translated into Kazakh and to check the compatibility of the model with the collected data. The values of conformity and factor loads obtained from the confirmatory factor analysis were studied using the AMOS 24 program. A chi-square test was studied. However, since a chi-square test is affected by sample size, it is necessary to decide whether the model data are consistent. Therefore, the analysis uses the ratio χ2/sd rather than the value itself. Confirmatory factor analysis took into account measures such as root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA), comparative fit index (CFI), Tucker-Lewis index (TLI), and good fit index (GFI). The fit values of the model as a result of the confirmatory factoranalysis are as follows; χ2/sd = 4,36; RMSEA = 0,062; CFI = 0,90; TLI = 0,89 GFI = 0,90. As a result of the confirmatory factor analysis, it was found that the measuring tool retained its structure from the original form and is a valid and reliable scale consisting of 25 elements with three factors, adapted to the Kazakh. In conclusion, recommendations were given on the use of a scale adapted to the Kazakh language for conducting research on the attitude of teachers and future teachers to the professional status of the teaching profession.Key words: teacher status; measuring the status of the teaching profession; adaptation of the scale to the Kazakh.

In foreign language instruction, the dynamics between educators and learners, along with linguistic and emotional factors, significantly influence the effective teaching of the target language. It is recognized that the linguistic variable, particularly the native language, influences students' writing performances during the instruction of Turkish to Kazakh learners. It has been observed that Kazakh students typically exhibit mistakes in their written expressions that are rooted in their mother tongue. Contrastive analysis is a method that increases the acquisition of the target language by focusing on interlingual linguistic aspects and emerges as a solution to these issues. This study examined the impact of the contrastive analysis on Kazakh students' writing performance and the development of linguistic consciousness. A mixed method design combining quasi-experimental and focus group interview methods was used to achieve the study's goal. The research group consists of Kazakh A2-level students studying Turkish as a foreign language at Abai Kazakh National Pedagogical University. The quantitative design of the study involved 66 students, whereas the qualitative design included 20 students in the focus group. The writing component of the Turkish Proficiency Test and a semi-structured interview form were utilized to collect data. The study's findings were analyzed using SPSS 23 and the MaxQDA 24 programs. The study's findings demonstrated that the contrastive analysis improved students' writing performance, and the combined effect of group and measurement was significant. Furthermore, the related method enhanced students' language awareness, awareness of mistakes, ability to monitor the writing process, and knowledge of interlingual vocabulary and grammar. Additionally, students had positive attitudes regarding this method. These findings are essential for creating teaching materials using the right process and transforming the curriculum. Key words: Contrastive analysis method, writing skills, language awareness, teaching Turkish to Kazakh students, mother tongue.
