Among these, there is a traditional distinction between external and internal factors according to the learner perspective (Ellis 1994). Thus, external factors include input and instruction, whereas internal factors refer to individual learner characteristics such as age, gender, motivation, aptitude, learning strategies, learning styles, and personality.
