摘要:Abstract This study investigated the relationship between learners’ two major needs (preferred language skill and preferred language learning material) and their patterns of strategy use. The data for the study were collected in two phases with two self-reported questionnaires. First, a needs analysis survey form designed by Nunan and Burton (1985) was administered to 150 students. Based on the results of this questionnaire 120 students were selected and divided into four groups. Then Oxford's Strategy Inventory for Language Learning (SILL version 7.0 for ESL/EFL learners, 50 items) was administered. The results of study showed students preferring different language skills used language-learning strategies in different ways. Results also indicated students learning language through different materials, employed different types of learning strategies.
