This finding showed that high motivation, level of language proficiency, and learning style have strong relationship with the use of students’ language learning strategy. The result also suggests that various of teaching strategies in the classrooms should be considered by the language teachers since the students have different preferences to learn. Highlighting the importance of learners’ metacognitive strategies is also recommeded without ignoring out the other strategies.
