methods and techniques. According to Oxford the language learning strategies are aimed activities<br />

that make learning simpler, fast and pleasant. Also it adds effectiveness and ability of transformation<br />

of knowledge to pupils in different situations. It is interesting to review twelve learning strategies<br />

published by Oxford. According to Oxford the main aspects of learning strategies are:<br />

1. Supports achieving the main aim and helps to develop communicational competencies<br />

2. Enables to pupil to manage and control learning process by himself or herself<br />

3. Changes the role of teachers<br />

4. Is focused on problems<br />

5. Consists of special actions, that pupil are using in learning<br />

6. Covers not only the cognitive aspects but other aspects as well<br />

7. Improves learning process by including a direct and an indirect methods<br />

8. In certain cases cannot be monitored or observed<br />

9. In most cases in mind driven<br />

10. It is impossible to cognize them<br />

11. It is distinguishable by the features of flexibility and the simple adaptation mechanism<br />

12. It is multi factorial process<br />

If we analyze the features of learning strategies by Oxford we will to conclude that these strategies<br />

are not only directed to develop language competencies but also general cognitive competencies,<br />

that results in improving of learning capacities of learning in other academic fields as well. In<br />

such situation it naturally raises the interest of studying Georgian as the second language by ethnical<br />

minorities. Especially in conditions when active state reforms have taken place accompanied by the<br />

developing of positive attitude from ethnical minorities toward Georgian language learning. this<br />

trend has been rising in recent years. by the survey of Development Agency in 2011 was revealed<br />

that 92 percent from interview people think that all the citizens of Georgia must know the state language.<br />

Majority of them expects positive feedback from non Georgian citizens towards learning<br />

Georgian language. 82,9 percent from of non ethical Georgians in the region of Georgia Kvemo<br />

Kartli and 62,2 percent in the region of Samckhe Javakheti think that learning Georgian is essential<br />

for them.<br />

Fundamentals of classification of language learning strategies were created even from the 50-70s<br />

of the previous century. This was related to the problems of teaching English as the second language<br />

for nonnative speakers. There are a number of models that use the different classifications of language<br />

learning strategies but are united under one aim of rising effectiveness in language learning.<br />

Let us review some of the important directions of classification:<br />

language learning strategy classification Researcher, period<br />

1. Active task approach<br />

2. Realization of the language as a system<br />

3. Realization of the language as a means for communication<br />

and interaction<br />

4. Management of active demands<br />

5. Monitoring of L2 performance<br />

1. Strategies that directly affect leaning :<br />

� Classification/verification<br />

� Monitoring<br />

� Memorization<br />

� Guessing/inductive inferencing<br />

� Deductive reasoning<br />

� Practice<br />

2. Processes that contribute indirectly to learning:<br />
