CARDONA PUELLO, Sindy Patricia; OSORIO BELENO, Alexander Javier; HERRERA VALDEZ, Amalfi de la Cruz e BEDOYA SOTO, Sonia Isabel. English Reading Habits of Pre-Service English Teachers. Folios [online]. 2022, n.55, pp.241-262. Epub 22-Jul-2022. ISSN 0123-4870. https://doi.org/10.17227/folios.55-12167.
This paper shows the results of a research carried out at a university institution In Cartagena (Colombia), to analyze the reading habits in English of students in advanced semesters of a Bachelor's Degree in Blllngualism program. In this research, we used quantitative and qualitative data collection techniques (mixed approach] to determine what the reading habits of students in this program are like in English. According to the results, most of the students (78,6 %) are occasional readers, and only 9,2 % of them are frequent readers. Furthermore, reading is associated with academic obligations rather than an intrinsic motivation towards reading in a foreign language.
