Both frequency and patterns of English learning strategies use were found to be significantly related to language proficiency. The present investigation aimed to investigate a) an overall strategy use of postgraduate students in southwest China; and b) to examine the relationship as well as patterns of variations in frequency of students' reported strategy use with reference to their gender and field of study. The subjects of this study were 200 postgraduates in the universities of southwest China. A written questionnaire based on the Strategy Inventory for Language Learning(SILL) was adapted and biodata was added for background information. The findings of the research showed that the postgraduates, on the whole, reported medium frequency of use of English learning strategies. The results of the data analysis also demonstrated that frequency of postgraduates' reported use of English learning strategies varied significantly in terms of gender and field of study. The implications, limitations and recommendations for further research were also discussed.展开更多

The emphasis was on the influence of L2 (second language) proficiency on learners' strategy use, aiming to look at how proficiency affects the use of LLS (language learning strategies) among postgraduate students learning EFL (English as a foreign language), and to reveal some distinctive features in postgraduate students' use of learning strategies. Findings from this study have suggested a number of implications for the classroom teaching. Teachers should recognize that some strategies might be more suited to some learners than to others due to individual differences. Learners needed further training in the use of all learning strategies展开更多

Total Physical Response(TPR), as a new language teaching method, is an effective way of English teaching. TPR can help and encourage learners to sustain their interest and attract their attention. TPR also can help the teacher to create contexts in which the language is useful and meaningful.展开更多
