8. 1. Provide opportunities for the students to explore the various language learning strategies practices by successful language learners. 2. Expose different strategies to the students for their life-long learning. 3. Create awareness on the importance of effective language strategies used for their overall achievement in learning the language.

9. In conclusion, this research indicates that the good language learners would employ variety of language learning strategies in improving their skills in learning a language. Each individual is unique and they would use different kind of strategies to learn reading, writing, speaking, listening, grammar and vocabulary. By having the chances to explore and experience the different strategies of language learning, they are able to decide of their own preferences in learning a language to improve their knowledge, thus maximizing their understanding to be excellent language users.
