While language learning primarily focuses on developing communicative skills for real-life interactions, incorporating lessons on learning strategies, critical thinking, and cultural awareness is equally valuable. Learning strategies help learners acquire the language more efficiently and can make the process more enjoyable. By improving vocabulary retention, adapting study methods to personal styles, and fostering self-assessment, these strategies help students stay motivated, monitor progress, and achieve lasting language proficiency. Moreover, critical thinking enhances learners’ ability to analyze, interpret, and respond thoughtfully in different social contexts, improving their communication skills. Cultural awareness fosters an understanding of diverse perspectives and customs, which is essential in navigating multicultural environments. Together, these elements provide a well-rounded foundation for learners, equipping them with skills that go beyond language proficiency and support more meaningful and effective communication.

Although some people may see lessons on cultural awareness or critical thinking as irrelevant, they are actually essential in real-life communication. Firstly, people from different cultural backgrounds perceive aspects of communication differently. For example, when it comes to distance between speakers, Americans generally talk at arm-length, while Europeans might be more comfortable with close distance. Having a grasp of cultural knowledge, therefore, can enhance communication efficiency, avoiding discomfort or misunderstanding. Secondly, critical thinking is indispensable to communication. Knowing how to think critically allows people to understand the logics or complexities of the conversations. This will allow them to make appropriate responses or arguments to express themselves and achieve the targets of communication.

While communication skills are crucial in real-life interactions, other factors such as learning strategies, critical thinking and cultural awareness should not be dispensed with. Firstly, learning methods determine the effectiveness of language acquisition. This is because each learner has their own strengths and weaknesses. Therefore, appropriate strategies based on one’s strong and weak points can optimize the learning process. Secondly, critical thinking allows learners to evaluate the texts to grasp the underlying messages. Hence, they would have a comprehensive, rather than superficial, understanding of their learning materials. Thirdly, cultural awareness assists in effective real-life communication. Everyday conversations involve colloquial and idiomatic expressions that require good cultural knowledge in order to comprehend

Although learning how to apply languages to real-life scenarios is crucial to a certain extent, other aspects such as learning strategies, critical thinking, and cultural awareness should not be understated. When tasked with analyzing a foreign piece of literature, such as Hamlet by Shakespeare, which was set in the 14th century, students need to gain a deep insight into the piece itself. First, since the piece of literature was set in an old social structure, which is inherently different from today's society, students need a comprehensive cultural understanding of that epoch to analyze it correctly. Second, since those pieces are typically long and often hard to follow, students require learning strategies to effectively memorize and deeply engage with the values conveyed. Critical thinking in language learning helps them to interpret and associate the lessons delivered by the author with today's world.
