This book analyses the role of writing as an integral part of communicative competence in the teaching/learning process, particularly in TEFL at Slovak primary schools. The author chooses primary schools in the Nitra Self-governing Region in Slovakia as the sample, with an intention to find out if primary school learners in Slovakia understand the instructions to the written exercises they are given. He analyses the mistakes/errors they usually make, and judges the criteria for reaching the expected level of writing proficiency in English. Using the very same methodology, he compares a previous research with the current situation, taking all aspects into account.
Pavol Burcl is an assistant professor of English at Jazykové centrum, Filozofická Fakulta, Univerzita Konštantína Filozofa, Nitra, Slovakia. He is specialised in the Theory of Teaching English Language and Literature as well as in Translation Studies.
