Autorenporträt
I have been fascinated by the role of the mother tongue in language learning since my BA in English Language and Literature from the University of Tartu, Estonia. However, this research was done only during my MA program in Applied Linguistics at the University of Bedfordshire, UK. I hope this book will generate some more research on this issue.
