Greetings! At this point, I am more than halfway there towards completing my research proposal so for this entry, I would like to look back on all the progress that I have done so far regarding the three chapters and the study as a whole.   There are some amendments that I have decided to make concerning my study.

Therefore, all TESL undergraduate students except for first year students in UiTM Puncak Alam
