Abstract	One of the most important factors that influence the teachers' work in the classroom is the understanding of their own beliefs and emotions about teaching. This paper focuses on the research that was carried out at the University of Osijek. The aim was to identify pre-service teachers’ beliefs about teaching English to primary school children. The instruments employed were a questionnaire and a structured interview. The pre-service teachers were asked to complete a questionnaire related to some aspects of teaching English as a foreign language in primary schools, in particular the nature of early foreign language acquisition, teaching methods and techniques. Additionally, a structured interview was conducted with some of the respondents who took part in the elective course Teaching English to Young Learners. The results show that the pre-service teachers have already had a formed and consistent set of beliefs about teaching and learning, probably influenced by their previous experiences. Finally, some questions for future research are raised and some constructive guidelines for teaching practice are suggested.
Abstract (croatian)	Jedan od najvažnijih čimbenika koji utječu na rad nastavnika u učionici je razumijevanje njihovih vlastitih mišljenja i osjećaja o poučavanju. Ovaj diplomski rad opisuje istraživanje koje je provedeno na Sveučilištu u Osijeku. Cilj je bio istražiti mišljenja budućih nastavnika o poučavanju engleskog jezika na osnovnoškolskoj razini. Instrumenti koji su korišteni bili su upitnik i strukturirani intervju. Budući nastavnici ispunili su upitnik koji se odnosi na neke aspekte poučavanja engleskoj kao stranog jezika, točnije na razvoj engleskog jezika u djece osnovnoškolske dobi te na metode i tehnike poučavanja. Dodatno su intervjuirani i neki od polaznika izbornog kolegija Nastava engleskog jezika u ranoj školskoj dobi. Rezultati pokazuju da budući nastavnici već imaju oblikovan i postojan skup mišljenja o poučavanju i učenju, na koji su vjerojatno utjecala njihova prijašnja iskustva. Na kraju, predložena su neka pitanja za daljnje istraživanje te ponuđene konstruktivne smjernice za praktičnu primjenu u nastavi.
