| Comments | English is now the most spoken language in the world, and there are many learners all over the world. However, unlike one's native language, which is acquired unconsciously, English, as a second language (L2), does not improve rapidly in proportion to the time and effort spent, and there are considerable individual differences. Why? I am interested in this puzzle. Such L2 mystery would be ascribed to learners' psychological aspects and learning environment. In particular, I have researched learner identity and language ideology within positioning theory and language rights. Recently, my research interests include English-medium instruction and internationalization of higher education. |
