Abstract
The study investigates vocabulary learning strategies of ESL students of
Pakistan with a consideration of their performance in order to identify; the
vocabulary level of the students and the most frequently and least frequently
used strategies. The research design was quantitative and the participants
were Pakistani ESL students of intermediate level. The SILL (Oxford, 1990)
was administered to assess the strategy use while their performance was
determined by the result of vocabulary test. The findings demonstrate that
Pakistani ESL students are medium strategy users with the frequent use of
meta cognitive strategies while with least use of affective strategies.
Moreover, vocabulary learning strategies show moderate correlation with
students’ performance. It is demonstrated that there is found a significant
positive correlation with vocabulary learning strategies and students’
performance.
