Abstract


English has definitely been acknowledged as the language of modern global communication by the national authorities. Its introduction and existence in the school and university curricula in our country is an obvious confirmation of its importance as a tool for personal, social and professional communication. This survey was designed to establish the students’ estimates and predictions about the role English is going to play in their future lives. The results are supposed to help in the design of the teaching materials primarily but also in the improvement of the overall goals of foreign language instruction.
