surrounding new-language learning. Current research suggests that when

the learners become more efficient and effective learners in the second
language. Teachers also need to be open to a multitude of learning styles among
the learners in the classroom and present instruction in many different ways.
Students need large amounts of meaning-focused practice of the language along
with form-focused instruction at appropriate times.
