Learning involves more than being in a classroom and in front of a teacher. Whatever their reasons for learning they have, it is sometimes tempting to see all students as being more or less the same. Yet there are marked differences, not only in terms of their age and level, but also in terms of different individual abilities, knowledge and preferences.
I will try to explain what aspects of their learning the following learners attend to.1. - I think one problem for me and perhaps everyone else learning a language is you have to be stimulated to learn.
Lack of motivation is what this student has. Various studies have found that motivation is very strongly to achievement in language learning (e.g. Gardner and Lamber, 1972; Garner, 1980). this comes from different sides, influenced by a number of external factors outside the classroom such us the attitude of society, family and peers or by a number of internal factors inside the classroom – this is the kind of motivation students bring to class and is activated by the teacher’s methods, activities, etc. H. Douglas Brown says motivation is something that can, like self- esteem, be global, situational, or task-oriented.
