Abstract

Learning what strategies are and their use is essential to form more critical and autonomous foreign language learners and pre-service teachers. Thus, the objective of this study is to describe the perception of pre-service English teachers on strategies applied to teaching and learning languages. In this research, the participants were 30 students of the Teaching Practice in English Language course from the Arts English Language and Literature Department that took part in this study. The data collection consisted of the application of a Metacognitive Questionnaire about the use of strategies for teaching and learning English. The results were analyzed qualitatively and showed that participants have a broad awareness of their learning and the use of strategies. Moreover, results point to a positive conception about their use of strategies and a theoretical basis to teach this content to future students in the teaching career.
