Abstract (2. Language): 
This study aims to evaluate linear algebra course from students’ perspectives. Within this scope, students’ difficulties related to the linear algebra course, benefits of the course, the most and the least interesting topics in the course and suggestions for effective linear algebra instruction were considered in the study. Qualitative study conducted with 72 students enrolled in the primary mathematics teaching departments showed that students lived different problems in linear algebra; the course had positive effects on student’s different skills; the most and the least interesting topics were matrix and vector spaces. Some suggestions were given about effective linear algebra teaching.
