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