EFL Learners’ Attitude Towards Culture and Cultural Learning

Abstract

Language and culture are complementary, helpful, and inspiring to one another. Especially for foreign language learners, culture is extremely important to understand the social and cultural background of the target language. This study aims to explore foreign language learners’ perception towards cultural learning. In order to come to a conclusion, a quantitative method was adopted by distributing questionnaires to 31 Chinese EFL students. From the perspective of Chinese students, culture and cultural learning are crucial in the second language acquisition process.
