Abstract

Promoting learner autonomy in the language classroom is crucial as it
empowers students to take ownership of their learning journey. By encouraging
autonomy, students become more self-directed and motivated, leading to increased
engagement and better retention of language skills. Autonomous learners are better
equipped to set their own learning goals, choose materials that suit their learning
style, and monitor their progress effectively. This fosters independence and lifelong
learning habits that extend beyond the classroom setting. Additionally, promoting
learner autonomy helps students develop critical thinking skills, problem-solving
abilities, and a sense of responsibility for their own learning outcomes.
