Language learning requires various strategies to be successfully followed to obtain proficiency. This study aimed to ascertain how students actually learn, exploring six types of language learning strategies used by students in Davao City. This presentation will explain the differences in the frequency of strategy use across grade level and gender. The six learning strategies compared were metacognitive, social, cognitive, compensation, affective, and memory. The Proportional Cluster Random Sampling Technique was used for 500 respondents from 2,178 students. A two- way ANOVA analyzed any significant differences in the strategies used across grade level and gender. One of the main results implies that for those more exposed to English, metacognitive strategies are preferred, while those with less experience favor memory strategies.
