Abstract :Nowadays, the usage of nonlinear regression models is common. However, non-linear models are more difficult to teach than linear models. The ordinary least squares method is effective in teaching nonlinear regression models. In this study, it is aimed to teach the subjects of non-linear regression in statistics for students. Transformed models are used for this. The ordinary least squares estimators of models are obtained and the comparison of these is made. Besides, an explanatory application is made on this subject.Keywords : linear model, non-linear model, ordinary least squares, estimate.
