Is the good language learner someone who is a high achiever as described above? As long as we have enough data, it does at least appear so from the evidence before us as teachers or researchers. They seem to be doing better than others even though they have received, and are receiving, the same language learning experience. It is therefore likely that what they are doing with their learning experience, their strategic behaviour, is something quite special, especially if their achievement is sustained over time.

A conclusion that can be drawn from this body of research is that while (small) individual strategies are present in most skill-based tasks, the way that they are used will vary according to the amount of challenge that the task poses, this in turn being very likely dependent on the linguistic knowledge of the person doing the task. Once again, the evidence points to individual strategies being used in clusters with metacognitive judgements being made about when, how, and how often to deploy an individual strategy within a cluster.
