Abstract

Pre-service second language teachers often keep in mind and orient themselves by their own experiences and beliefs acquired as learners during second language classes at school. The paper offers a presentation of experiences and beliefs of 25 Polish early childhood education students and identifies which of these beliefs changed after the students attended the second language teaching methodology course. Two areas where the change of beliefs occurred are discussed: a) attitude towards errors and their correction, and b) attitude towards the use of language in class. From the didactic point of view it is argued that university students should be confronted during their professional education with their own learning experiences as well as those of others, and that their false beliefs should be modified in order to, on this basis, train them to be reflective teachers.
