PhD study - participants required

22 January 2018 (Heriot-Watt University)

A PhD student at Heriot-Watt University is currently selecting Spanish speaking and Catalan speaking families with limited or no English proficiency. Families should have school age children (primary or secondary) who speak English better than their parents. She is looking for families where Dad, Mum, grandparents etc. have help from their children when they have to communicate in day-to-day tasks, such as speaking to teachers, doing the shopping, etc. until their English skills improve.

If you are interested in participating, or know of someone who would be, please download the attached document for further information.
