We know from research by Joan Rubin (1975) that the
Good Language Learner:
1. is a
willing and accurate guesser.
2. has a strong drive to communicate.
3. is often not inhibited.
4. is prepared to attend to form.
5. practises.
6. monitors his own speech and the speech of others, and
7. attends to meaning.

So what does this mean? Although this research is a
bit dated and culture specific, we can still learn a few lessons from it.
If students do not feel the need for talking, for enquiring,
for explaining… how can they learn a language to speak?
