This study is to provide insights into how second language learners of Chinese develop their vocabulary learning strategies and explore the differences among beginning, intermediate and advanced learners. The results of investigation indicate that the advanced learners have a wider range of strategies. We also found that learners from different cultures have some specific preferences in using vocabulary learning strategies.
