Abstract

This study aimed to investigate out-of-class language learning strategies (OCLLSs, henceforth) used by six English majors in Indonesia. The data used in this study were the students’ journals written for seven days and email-based interview results. The study found that the two most common strategies used by the students when learning English outside the classroom were strategies related to writing and reading skills. Students reported using writing and reading skills related strategies to work on their undergraduate thesis and prepare the teaching materials for the teaching practice. The study also revealed that the students tended to use tools when performing OCLLSs. It was also found that the modern technology-affiliated tools (e.g. computer, Instagram) were the most favourite tools chosen by the students.
