Oportunidades de desarrollo profesional para los estudiantes de lleei

Abstract

This work is part of a larger research project that investigated the experiences of learning English and learning to teach English in an EFL context. One of the purposes of the main project was to introduce undergraduate students to the different steps in conducting research. Thus, in this section, our main goal, as student-researchers, was to establish the strengths and the weaknesses students were facing whilst they were in their process of becoming teachers. As we analyzed data we encountered some common trends that served as a basis to design professional development opportunities where students can find meaningful strategies for them to adapt into their teaching pedagogies.
