Abstract
This review deals with the evaluation of the research study performed as a part of the doctoral thesis at the South East European University (SEEU) in Tetovo, Republic of North Macedonia. This paper aims to give a review of the thesis, which was published as a book, entitled: “Second language vocabulary acquisition and learning strategies. An empirical research with EFL students at the South East European University, Tetovo, Macedonia.” It describes the importance of acquiring English as a second language, especially its vocabulary and learning strategies. This study was designed to find out the perceived use of vocabulary learning strategies — the strategies that the students actually use and their usefulness. This study has practical significance in the field of vocabulary acquisition and provides some new information to both English teachers and students of English in the Republic of North Macedonia and beyond. The results drawn from this research can help learners become more successful in acquiring the vocabulary of the English language. The purpose of this study is to investigate the vocabulary learning strategies used by students at the SEEU, make them aware of the strategies they used to learn new words, and encourage the teachers to think about strategy training and include it in their regular instruction.
