Η γνώση της τοπικής γλώσσας είναι απαραίτητη για τον πληθυσμό αυτό, προκειμένου να επιτύχει τη βελτίωση της κοινωνικοοικονομικής και επαγγελματικής του κατάστασης. Στην Ελλάδα, τις προηγούμενες δεκαετίες υπήρξε πρόνοια για την γλωσσική εκπαίδευση μεταναστών/ριών από δημόσιους φορείς και ταυτόχρονα από πρωτοβουλίες εθελοντικών ομάδων. Ωστόσ… Show more

“…One participant also mentions the lack of teaching materials (English books) as an obstacle ("there is no corresponding material in essence"), which, on the one hand, is identical with the results of the research of Kantzou et al (2017), and on the other hand, conflicts with other participants who claim to have at their disposal all the necessary equipment.
