    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.
