Summary/Abstract: The present descriptive research has as a main aim the identification of students’ opinions on the necessary conditions in order for them to be interested in learning and obtaining good results in either Mathematics or English Language Teaching Methodology, with focus on the teaching-learning methods and techniques used while teaching these two subjects. The descriptive research was conducted on 120 students, aged 20- 21 years, in their 2nd year of studies at ‘Transilvania’ University of Brasov, enrolled in the Teaching Methodology classes. The teaching-learning methods varied from traditional, modern and specific to either of the two subjects. The conclusions drawn, after analysing the questionnaires and the school results showed that both their interest for the subjects and their learning performances rose in direct proportion to the variety of teachinglearning methods used for each learning unit.
