The article aims at emphasizing the importance of language learning strategies in development of adult learners’ autonomy. In the theoretical part, it presents the background of language learning strategies, defines the concept of a language learning strategy, and provides the taxonomy of language learning strategies proposed by various researchers. The paper also presents the concept of learner autonomy and points to the link between language learning strategies and learner autonomy. The empirical part of the paper is a presentation of the research in which late-starters of English in their mid and late fifties were exposed to language learning strategy training in order to develop their language learning autonomy.
