Resumen

Este reporte de investigación tiene como objetivo principal compartir los resultados de una investigación cualitativa, realizada por un estudiante-maestro, bajo la supervisión de dos maestros-investigadores. Dicha investigación se enfocó en las percepciones de estudiantes universitarios, hacia el impacto de la relación maestro-alumno sobre el aprendizaje del inglés como lengua extranjera. Para la recolección de datos se realizaron entrevistas semi-estructuradas en tanto que el análisis concurrente de la información se basó en aspectos de la teoría fundamentada. Los resultados revelaron que tanto el sentido de bienestar de los estudiantes como sus actitudes y voluntad de aprender, mejoraron cuando la maestra les demostró empatía, interés en su desarrollo como alumnos, y respeto.
