An investigation into the low achievers of primary English learning: Causes and countermeasures

The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the causes for low achievements of low achievers in primary English learning, and to provide some suggestions that can help in alleviating the low achiever problem at schools. For this purpose, 78 experienced primary school teachers specializing in primary English education at the postgraduate level were given a delphi-type questionnaire that required writing up their responses, and asked to give their frank opinions about the low achievers they experienced at their schools. Their stated responses were carefully analyzed and categorized and discussed, to reveal the true picture of the low achiever problem, and to offer some helpful suggestions to mitigate the graveness of the low achiever problem in primary English education.
