Dear All,
My name is Peter Lauer. I am a teacher of English at Noszlopy Gáspár Primary and Basic Art
Educational School, Marcali, Hungary. I currently am a post-graduate university student 'fighting'
for my MA in English Literature and Linguistics at the University of Pécs, Hungary. This is my final
year at university and I am about to write my thesis. I am planning to write about learners'
motivation and their attitudes towards reading in English. In order to accomplish this task I need
data. I am posting this message to ask you to fill in a questionnaire. The questionnaire consists of 22 '3-option' questions, with extra data on gender and age group.(see below) Hopefully, this way I would be able to receive enough data to work with. I would appreciate
any help.
Thank you very much for your co-operation in advance.
Cheers,
Peter Lauer
