Due to the phenomenon of globalization, an increasing interest in learning
languages has recently arisen. As a consequence, many scholars have devoted
their efforts to the study of linguistics. One of the most relevant outcomes of
this concern about language is the emergence of differential psychology, which
is the study of learners’ individual differences and their impact on the
language learning process. Nevertheless, although a great number of
investigations have been conducted on this field, the findings are still
miscellaneous. With the purpose of having a better understanding of this
intricate area, a review of the main variables affecting language learning is
developed in this study. The focus has been placed on affective and cognitive
factors, and special attention has been given to a particular variable.
Concretely, language learning strategies are actually the core issue of the
present project, which aims to provide knowledge about such a complex
aspect. Thus, the main target of this study is to give an overview of the most
relevant approaches and hypothesis in relation to the factors previously
mentioned. In order to achieve this goal, an analysis of the major taxonomies
of language learning strategies has been presented, together with the
description of the main factors that affect the use of strategies. Taking into
consideration the theory reviewed, a teaching proposal has been designed
which includes activities in order to help teachers to implement the use of
language learning strategies in the classroom. [-]
