My diploma thesis deals with using learning strategies when learning the English language. To research the learning strategies of students I will carry out a case study in one particular class of lower level of an eight ? year grammar school. The theoretical part is focused on the evaluation of the current knowledge and description and characterization of particular learning strategies. It stresses the importance of learning strategies in the context of the contemporary educational system. I also refer to the role of teachers and students with regard to using learning strategies. The practical part of the diploma thesis deals with the determination of measures in which the students of one particular class use learning strategies. To find out about learning strategies of the students I will use an existing questionnaire called Strategy Inventory for Language Learning (SILL) for my case study. On the basis of the gained data I will determine the measure of using learning strategies of particular students and the whole group. After that I will suggest a set of exercises which support mainly the development and use of the direct learning strategies.
