Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

Language Teaching Research focuses on the pedagogical aspects of second and foreign language education. It examines instructional methods, including innovative approaches like Photovoice and AI-driven systems, and their impact on language skills such as writing and pronunciation. The journal also investigates factors influencing language learning, such as self-efficacy, academic buoyancy, grit, and self-regulated learning strategies, often within English as a Foreign Language (EFL) and English as a Second Language (ESL) contexts.
