摘要:Language learning strategies (LLSs) play important roles in learners’ language learning. The study investigated the use of LLSs employed by English-major pre-service teachers in Midwest China by enjoyment of English learning. The modified SILL was used to collect the data. ANOVA and Post Hoc Scheffe Test were performed for data analysis. The results demonstrated that a significant variation in their pre-service teachers reported frequency of overall strategy use, all the four categories, and 41 out of 48 individual LLSs. Pre-service teachers with higher enjoyment of English learning use more strategies than counterparts with lower enjoyment of English learning. Implications of the findings for English teaching and learning were discussed.
