The input hypothesis sustains that the language information learners receive has nothing to do with the level of their linguistic competence.

The affective filter hypothesis is an imaginary barrier that learners should have high up to learn the target language more easily and effectively.

Homonyms and songs are two examples of activities that teachers can do in the classroom to promote acquisition.

The teacher can create a friendly atmosphere in the classroom and provide pair group activities to develop student’s confidence to help students improve both, attitude and aptitude.

The contrastive analysis hypothesis sustains that learning a second language is easier when L1 and L2 are similar and it’s more difficult when L1 and L2 are very different.

Interlanguage is a term introduced by the linguist Selinker and it refers to a language learning process between L1 and L2

The term intelligence has only one definition: the ability to perceive or infer information and solve problems.

When it comes to language acquisition intelligence does not determine success.

Howard Gardner came up with the idea of multiple intelligences

There are five different intelligences proposed by Howard Gardner

According to research language learners have the same language learning styles.

A language teacher should use a combination of different type of activities to try to cover as many learning styles as possible.

Extrovert students are better language learners in all the skills (listening, speaking, reading & writing) than introvert ones.

Introvert learners are more proficient in written and reading than extrovert ones.
