dc.description.abstract“The purpose of this study was to identify the problems ELT students face while writing their thesis project during the COVID-19 pandemic and how students and teachers overcame those problems. In addition, it was also important to investigate the interaction between the teacher and students in a distance learning context. The research was carried out at a public university located in one of the biggest cities in central Mexico. This university has an undergraduate program in English Language Teaching where students are trained to become English teachers. Interviews using the technique of stimulated recall were used to collect the data. The research findings have shown that academic writing, difficulties in finding sources of information, recruiting participants for the study and the change of the Research Seminar professor from Seminar 1 to Seminar 2 were some of the problems that the participants faced when they wrote their thesis. The participants pointed out that some of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic were changing topic, the settings of the thesis project were closed, procrastination, lack of feedback, lack of motivation and tiredness of being in front of the computer. Those experiences helped them find some solutions: change topic and start writing the first three chapters again, use different ways to approach the participants (social media, personal connections, university resources) and ask for the Research Seminar professor’s help. The teachers supported and gave feedback to the students. More results and implications are described within this thesis”.
