摘要：Abstract This study investigated the difference between monolingual (Persian) and bilingual (Turkish and Persian) speakers as EFL learners in terms of use of language learning strategies. A total number of 160 EFL students at Urmia Payam Noor University as Bilinguals and Tehran Payam Noor University as Monolinguals took part in the study. They were asked to fill out Oxford's Strategy Inventory for Language Learning (SILL) questionnaire. The results of the independent t-test revealed that there was a significant difference between the two groups in their strategy use. The results of Chi-square test also indicated that there was a significant difference in the strategy use for some individual items between the two groups. The use of separate t-tests for the six categories of the SILL indicated that the strategy use was again statistically significant in favour of bilinguals. The results of this study indicated the evidence of significant difference between monolingual and bilingual EFL learners in terms of using learning strategies, which might have implications for EFL teachers as well as learners.
