ABSTRACT 

The study intends to present a review of the literature on the learners' beliefs and learners’ strategies by analysing a number of researches conducted on a similar topic area. The study analyses the beliefs held by learners, what constructs their beliefs, and how the belief systems of learners have an effect on learning a second/foreign language. The study, in addition, presents the strategies that the learners develop in their given cultural and social backgrounds, how the beliefs and strategies differ from one learner to another, and also the implications of the strategies in learning; particularly, English language learning. The study also presents how the concepts: of learner beliefs and learner strategies are interrelated like the two sides of the same coin and how they contrast. The study follows the qualitative method in reviewing and presenting an overview of some conceptualized beliefs and strategies discussed in different research articles and books. 

Keywords: Learner beliefs, Learner strategies, Construct, Implication, Inter-relation and contrast.
