Inside the classroom, some learners seem to take advantage of what is going on more than others. Aware of this, teachers will frequently say that successful students possess some or all of the following characteristics.
1. A willingness to listen: good learners listen to what is going on – not just in the sense of paying attention, but also in terms of really listening to the English that is being used, soaking it up with eagerness and intelligence.
2. A willingness to try new things: many good learners are not afraid to ‘have a go’. They are prepared to try things out and see how it works. Of course, not all successful language learners are extroverts, but the urge to use the language (loudly or quietly) is an important one.
3. A willingness to think about how to learn: good learners bring or invent their own study skills when they come to a lesson. They think about the best way to memorize vocabulary, the best way to read a text (slowly, translating every word? Or quickly, trying to get a general understanding?), the best method of drafting and re-drafting a piece of writing.
4. A willingness to ask questions: although some teachers can become irritated by students who are constantly asking difficult (and sometimes irrelevant) questions, the urge to find out why is part of a successful learner’s equipment.
5. A willingness to accept correction: good learners are prepared to accept corrections if it helps them. They are keen to get feedback from the teacher and act upon what they are told. But this only works where teachers are able to offer constructive criticism. It involves teachers in judging their students’ responses to correction so that they can act accordingly.
(Jeremy Harmer. How to teach English, 1998. Adaptado)
The 5 items listed by Harmer about the good language learner together point to the fact that good language teachers
- are good at teaching the best strategies for developing oral and written skills.
- focus on students’ personal qualities and respect individual learners’ styles and pace of learning.
- rely on fresh ideas about how to deal with students’ avidness and urge for learning.
- grant students opportunities for exploration, experimentation and questioning.
- encourage the learning of the various language skills for both present and future language needs.

Comentário do professor
Os cinco itens de Harmer destacam disposições do aprendiz que só florescem quando o professor estrutura a aula para permitir ação do aluno. Assim, a alternativa correta aponta que o docente deve conceder oportunidades de exploração, experimentação e questionamento, criando condições para que essas atitudes apareçam.
Na prática, isso significa propor tarefas abertas, atividades de tentativa e erro, momentos de reflexão sobre estratégias e espaços seguros para perguntas e correções. O professor também precisa oferecer feedback construtivo e orientar a reescrita ou nova tentativa, em vez de apenas corrigir.
Esse conjunto de práticas promove autonomia e aprendizagem significativa, porque transforma o aluno em protagonista do processo e incentiva o uso real da língua. Portanto, a alternativa d resume com precisão o papel do professor sugerido por Harmer.
