Very well written and structured. A psychology of learning from social constructivist point of view. That is to learn adjusting to our personal meaning and values and also learn from social interactions. Also, I like the notion on learning foreign language is to adapt to that culture, and also about strategies, metacognition, that is learning about learning.
