SAMPERIO, Nahum. Learning Strategies Used by High and Low Achievers in the First Level of English. profile [online]. 2019, vol.21, n.1, pp.75-89. ISSN 1657-0790.  https://doi.org/10.15446/profile.v21n1.68246.

This study tries to identify the possible differences in the types of strategies and their frequency of use in low and high achievers of English in a language centre in a university in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico. Data were collected using a mixed-methods research methodology. The sample consists of 27 students with a high score and 30 with a low score on the achievement test. The results show that students in both categories use similar strategies; the difference lies in the frequency of use and how they use the strategies. Finally, from the qualitative data emerges a list of strategies used by high achievers.

Palavras-chave : High achievers; language achievement; learning strategies; low achievers.
