LANGUAGE LEARNING STRATEGIES
¨NINA SANTOS¨
INTRODUCTION
Nowadays it is essential to learn the English language.
Every day it is used more and more in all areas of
knowledge and human development. It is the language
that unites everyone. Professionals, students,
institutions, companies of all types. are directly or
indirectly affected by it. Therefore its possession is
aobvious need. And so, taking into account the
importance of the English language, has been included in
all resumes. And based on this need, we provide some
simple methods to learn English.
02
EFFECTIVE STUDY TECHNIQUES
Immersion
Immersion is one common way to help boost learning of
all kinds, but it seems to work particularly well for
languages, by situating the student in a context, away
from the classroom, where they are instead embedded
in an environment where the studied language is spoken.
Distributed practice
Instead of dedicating one day a week to your English
studies, better to do half an hour every day: this
technique of spreading your practice over a period of
time, broken into small chunks, is more likely to reap
results. Tests found that the longer you want the
information to remain, the longer the intervals should
be; so when it comes to reviewing large chunks of work,
take your time!
Practice tests
practice tests ask an activity of the brain which is
different from when we are simply absorbing
information – it challenges the brain’s ability to recall
and dig up information previously stored and put it
together creatively.
You can practice by completing units in your courseware,
or set yourself a task of practicing the vocabulary
you’ve learned each week by writing a small text without
consulting any of your materials. 03
Social learning
This is excellent for those wishing to improve their
conversation skills and get a sense of culture. Learning
through making friends and doing can be some of the
best techniques to follow if you have a love for meeting
new people and best pick up a skill by copying and
adapting

Challenges in learning English
¨DAYANIS PEÑA¨
INTRODUCTION
International students who do not speak English face
multiple pressures that
can affect their academic performance. The most
important of these
pressures is your level of English proficiency. They find
that their class
instructions are accelerated not only by language and
communication styles,
but also by other cultural and social differences.
12
What are the difficulties and problems in learning
English grammar?
Learning English grammar can be a challenge as there
are many exceptions to
the rules and native English speakers tend to be a bit
lazy when it comes to
following them correctly. Some of the most common
problems include: Verb
tenses: In some languages, tenses don’t even exist. Some
words can have
many meaning.
What are the pronunciation challenges that English
learners
experience?
Listeners will easily misinterpret what the speaker
means if these sounds are
not pronounced correctly. Students are used to
pronouncing sounds in their
native language. As a result, they have difficulty
controlling the muscles and
sound-producing parts, such as the lips, teeth, and
tongue, to pronounce
English correctly.
13
Challenges related to access to quality English
learning resources and how to overcome them
#1 LEARNING METHOD
Among the challenges when learning English, perhaps one
of the most
important is related to the learning method. It is not
about there being an
infallible method, but about avoiding dependence on a
single technique.
Many people refer to learning through a book, a podcast,
among others. The
truth is that in this context you need to master writing,
know how to speak
and listen, with this you will be able to understand
correctly.
#2 SHAME OR FEAR
The fear of failing can also impede good language
development, but being
criticized or embarrassed doesn’t just happen when
speaking English. It is a
part of a process that, no matter how difficult it may
seem, will be
progressively reduced.
14
No one wants to make mistakes or feel disapproval, but
we are not perfect
and you should not seek perfection. Just do your best,
practice and stay
committed to continuing despite mistakes.
Embarrassment is possibly one of the most sobering
challenges when
learning English. You know why? Being afraid of speaking
in public, making
mistakes and trying again a thousand times more, helped
you gradually
overcome the fear.
#3 CONCENTRATION
The main factor to master English, concentration; It is
affected by various
circumstances around us. This usually happens when your
efforts to learn are
diverted and you do not have the best conditions to
study. For example, a
place that is very noisy or full of distractions disrupts
learning.
#4 THINK IN SPANISH
This is a very common mistake and one of the biggest
challenges when 15
learning English. It is because you are used to speaking
in your native
language and structure a different language in the same
way.
Therefore, thinking in Spanish and literally translating
into English is not
recommended. English has a different grammar that,
although there may be
similarities, is another language with its own rules.
#5 AGE
Time should never represent a barrier for you to grow,
learn or discover. It is
true that as children, we have the ability to absorb
information more easily
and more quickly.
However, not learning due to age is just a myth that we
invite you to debunk.
Our experience in learning English tells us that, as you
are older, you are more
aware of situations that you did not perceive before.
#6 MONEY
Among the challenges when learning English, one of the
most mentioned is 16
money. However, recognizing this factor as an expense is
the biggest mistake
you can make. Because?
Learning English represents an absolute investment that
will translate into
more than a financial return for your life. Think, who
speaks English? Is the
majority of your social circle bilingual? Do you want
better job opportunities?
Taking charge of your future requires making changes,
being willing to fail,
and, most importantly, learning and evolving.
#7 TIME
In previous times, the tools to learn English were not
functional or effective
regarding work schedules. Today the story is different.
While it is true that you must dedicate time to studying
the language, be
consistent and organize your agenda, you also have
experts.
17
CONCLUSION
English learning could be challenging for many EL
learners. Based on the
results, most students admit Having a hard time learning
English but can
actually use the language well. These difficulties may be
Associated with the
complex system of English language per se. Moreover,
efficiency in language
learning Is attributed not just through theoretical
inputs from school but most
importantly, through constant application Outside the
school.

society worldwide.

friendshipand cooperation. It can help create a more
peaceful and harmonious world.
