Information on science teachers’ methods of teaching and learning has been gathered by an interview protocol consisting of six open-ended questions, with a numerical scoring analysis: Teachers Pedagogical Philosophy Interview. The results report that the majority of Bulgarian teachers surveyed rank in the middle of the scale which is an indication that they blend teacher-centred and student-centred style of instruction. A previous our research based on a different survey instrument led to similar conclusions. In addition, the survey reveals that teachers show attitudes to change their teaching methods and classroom practices towards the constructivist approach.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">184-193 </style></section></record></records></xml>
