I thought that new – and veteran – readers might find it interesting if I began sharing my best posts from over the years. You can see the entire collection here.
In 2011, I posted The Best Videos Illustrating Qualities Of A Successful Language Learner.
In it, I listed the qualities that researchers have found most important in…successful language learners, and included short videos illustrating each one. I use them in lessons that can be found in my books on teaching English Language Learners.

An appetite for learning, perseverance
Being willing to take risks
Being willing to make mistakes and learn from them
Wants to help and teach others
We all need to be like Gus in this video:
