ELA- final (survey)
Greetings of Peace!
I am Arianne Patricia D. Onte, a Senior student from St. Scholastica’s College- Westgrove. I am currently conducting a research on the effects of different family environments to the children. This serves as my main focus for my thesis this year; a requirement for all graduating students of SSCW, under the subject English Language Arts.
In line with this I would like to ask for a few minutes of your time, to answer the survey presented below. Rest assured that all data that will be collected from the survey will be kept confidential. You are not obliged, though, to answer the following questions should they place you in an uncomfortable position. However, if you do answer the survey, I will appreciate it very much as it will help greatly in the improvement of my thesis, and the statistics I will present in co- ordinance with this study.
Thank you for your cooperation and time.
Respectfully yours,
