The Good Language Learner
1. Do you think that there is such a thing as a "good language learner"? To what extent do you think it is possible for people to become "better" language learners?
I do not think that good language learners are born; I think that they are developed. They are developed through autonomy, extensive practice, willingness to learn, and motivation of any type. Moreover, whether they are good or not is also determined by the goals they have established themselves for learning the language. In addition to these factors, their personal characteristics also influence their language learning process.
I believe that there is no extent; the learners decide how to become better and when to stop building their effort to become good language learners. However, there are some things that they can do in order to continue improving their learning. For instance, they may change their learning styles and learn more learning strategies, or they may also change their beliefs about learning.
