needs to be understood better. In order to get the hang of this procedure and
understanding how people learn languages, there have been many theories of
learning with principles. These principles are used to choose the suitable
learning tools and strategies in learning process. Each theory has its own
principles. Behaviorism, for instance, has its base on stimuli-response
associations.  To shed light on this
topic, this study, which was carried out by means of literature review model,
