<p>High school students of today frequently come into contact with the English language through</p><p>radio and television. Many students even manage to read instruction manuals and understand</p><p>how technical devices work, such as, for example, computer games. However, most teachers</p><p>underestimate their students’ ability and persist in using Swedish to explain how the English</p><p>language works. I have analysed how high school students manage when they take an English</p><p>grammar test in English. My results show that the students manage very well. Learning is</p><p>rather about the meta cognitive ability of the students which, is what both teachers and</p><p>students should spend more time on in order to achieve successful learning.</p>
