Language learning strategies have been considered to play significant roles in foreign language learning. The present study focuses on how learners perceive their use of learning strategies and also determining the relationships between language learning strategies. This study employed the classification of learning strategies by Wenden and Rubin (1987) namely Cognitive Components and Metacognitive Self-Regulation. This study also includes Resource Management strategy to complement the main strategies. The instrument used in this study was a questionnaire that was distributed to 239 students from various discipline backgrounds. The findings revealed that there are strong correlations between the three main strategies. It was also found that Resource Management strategy was the most used strategy by the students, specifically the Help-Seeking strategy.
