New paradigms of teaching and learning have emerged which have a relevance in formulating quality parameters for the 21st century English learning globally. Determining the influence of different psychological variables in English instruction may be considered as one of them. After a fruitful study of the inter-relationship between Emotional Intelligence, Achievement Motivation and Parental Involvement and their impact on the achievement of English learners, the authors of this text offers solidly research-grounded strategies empirically related to the positive outcomes in learning English rather than the common anecdotal suggestions for good teaching found in other books.
