Abstract: Julian Fox, originally from Australia, has been teaching English at the Pacific Regional Seminary and at Corpus Christi Teachers’ College in Suva for the past few years. He has completed three of the four required courses for the Postgraduate Diploma in Linguistics and expects to graduate in December 2001. In The distinctive case of the Samoan learner of English: metacognition, learning style and culture, Father Fox combines his knowledge of Samoan students and the Samoan language with his interest in the role of culture in second language acquisition.
