REFLECTION FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE LANGUAGE LEARNING Motivation Does the language apply to daily life? Can students see the importance? Do students feel forced to learn the language? 15

SUPPORT Is the language spoken at home? Where else can students hear the language? What is the level of exposure? 16

TEACHING STRATEGIES AND COMPREHENSIBLE INPUT Are different learning styles considered? Different levels of comprehension? Does the student understand? Does the curriculum reach the student at their level with activities just a level beyond? 17

AGE Pronunciation and intonation can be acquired with ease during childhood up to the age of 12. By the onset of puberty language acquisition is said to have solidified and it becomes increasingly difficult to learn a new language. 18
