 In our survey, we had successfully invited 11 language teachers (with at least a year of
teaching experience) as our respondents. Their experience and discipline provided us the
advantage to achieve the goals of our survey — to determine the top 10 skills for language
learning — because they already have considerable amount of knowledge on the texture,
style, and nature of language learning which makes them reliable sources of information for
the survey per se.

 In our survey, we had successfully invited 24 students as our respondents. The reason why all
of the respondents were third-year English major students was because they are the ones
directly related, familiar, and exposed to language learning. In other words, the survey can
extract rich and relevant information from the respondents.
