A learning strategy is the "ay in "hich the learner selects# ac$uires# organi%es# or integrates ne"

"ocusing on adolescents
For this group o- learners "e -ound that cogniti0e strategies are ,ore e--ecti0e since they tend to
interact "ith the ,aterial either ,entally or physically/ As (illennials# they li&e to experience the
concept# apply it to the,sel0es so that it can be related to the,# and that they do it by using
,anipulati0e or technology/ It is true that at the beginning they rely on repetition# translation and
trans-er but later on they ,o0e to in-erence '8(alley and Cha,ot# 1))5 as cited in (adrid and >all#
n/d/+/
7he social a--ecti0e strategies are also i,portant -or this group o- learners# since at that age# "ith the
physical and e,otional changes they are going through and their short attention span# they ha0e a lot
o- $uestions# needs -or explanations and reassurance not .ust about the language# but also about the
"orld "ithin the,sel0es and the "orld around the,/ 7eachers should create a classroo, at,osphere
that -osters the disco0ering and de0eloping o- /
We need to learn about our students4 learning styles/ I- "e de0elop strategies that help us recogni%e
these styles in our students# "e "ill get tips about the "ay they learn/ :ecogni%ing "hich learning
strategies our students use and being clear about "hich ones they need to learn is essential -or the
process o- language ac$uisition/ >esides# "e should al"ays re,e,ber that a healthy# sa-e# and

7eenagers ha0e peculiar characteristics that teachers constantly need to ta&e into consideration/ We
strongly belie0e that a supporting en0iron,ent at school is highly bene-icial -or teenagers= they need
