There are many learners who enjoy learning foreign languages and meanwhile also experience various benefits of mastering a foreign language; however, there are also others who find language learning frustrating and even impossible to undertake. There are too many learners who could do much better at learning languages, and knowing how to study languages and which techniques and strategies to use can help them reduce or even avoid a great deal of frustration and failure, and can also help become successful no matter what the previous experience or aptitude. In the thesis, fundamental principles of successful language learning, and an overview of a study of multiple research works carried out in the field of second and foreign language learning are presented. The thesis gives concrete suggestions, and presents and explains various strategies on how to become a more effective and successful language learner, how to face problems in language learning, and how to approach the study of a foreign language in a meaningful and productive way. The thesis also tackles the area of the role of the learner, and studies other factors that influence language learning, such as the development of the intrinsic motivation. Meanwhile, it strives to help learners develop responsible learner attitudes, skills and techniques that they will be able to use anytime they will need to do so, and keep improving their foreign language even without the help of a teacher and outside the context of formal instruction. There has been a growing interest in learning strategies ever since interest shifted from "what" students learn or acquire to "how" students gain the knowledge so that the process of learning and acquisition can actually occur. Learning strategies are the main focus of the thesis. There are various theoretical classifications of learning strategies presented, such as the ones made by Chamot and the co-researchers (1999), Oxford (1990), and Willing (1989), studies of successful and unsuccessful language learners, the comparisons of their characteristics and use of strategies, and profiles of a good and bad language learner. A study of multiple research works in the field of second and foreign language learning was carried out with the purpose of helping learners that are not (so) successful become better learners by providing them with different possibilities and means on how to learn a language more efficiently.

English for Successful International Communication (B2), specially designed for young adults studying Business English at B2 level in Spain, is divided into fifteen 10-page units. Each main unit is divided into three sections: Reading, Listening and Looking at Language, while Put it into Practice tasks, involving students in research and presentation projects, are intended to conclude each unit in a meaningful way. In addition to the main units, after every three units there is a Revision & Extension section, where students revise and further develop their understanding of important vocabulary and language items previously dealt with. Interspersed throughout the book are five Business Skills mini-units and five Work on Writing mini-units. In the former, students are introduced to a topic, given advice from experts in the field and then asked to practice each skill through role plays and informal presentations; in the latter, students are provided with writing tips and asked to analyze a work‑related text type before being given the chance to write a similar text of their own. English for Successful International Communication (B2) was born out of ESIC’s 5 Cultures Program, which incorporates the areas of Service to Stakeholders, Excellence, Responsibility, Diversity and Innovation. The innovative content and subject matter of each unit was selected with Business students —specifically, ESIC stakeholders— in mind, and is intended to reflect material they deal with in their degree program coursework. The diverse range of topics is designed to help students not only to further develop their linguistic skills, but also to think more critically about the world around them. In an effort to promote increased excellence, E.S.I.C. (B2) includes professional guidance and practical insights into emerging topics in the world of Business, Marketing and Advertising (e.g. Corporate Social Responsibility, Big Data and Influencers).

JANET W. LERNER This timely volume explores issues pertinent to the emerging subject of college education for adults with learning disabilities. The inspiration for the book was a conference held at Barat College in Lake Forest Illinois on April 7, 1990, entitled College Students with Learning Disabilities: Reviewing the '80s and Planning for the '90s. The occasion was the celebration of the tenth anniversary of Barat College's program for college students with learning disabilities. Papers presented at this con ference, plus several additional invited chapters, and those of the co editors are included in this much needed publication. Only a few years ago, college was out of the question for most adults with learning disabilities. It is heartening to note that this situation has changed substantially over the last 15 or so years, with great strides in opportunities for adults with learning disabilities to acquire a college level education. From a slow beginning with programs such as the one at Barat College, there are today programs and support services in a variety of settings at a growing number of colleges and universities. Many indi viduals with learning disabilities can look forward to experiencing college and better preparing themselves for the future. The collection of papers in this book offers a comprehensive review of this exciting and challenging field.
