This article examines the impact of gender on language learning and explores how gender-related factors influence language acquisition, motivation, communication styles, classroom participation, and academic achievement. Gender has long been considered an important social variable in educational research. Studies indicate that male and female learners often demonstrate differences in learning strategies, interaction patterns, and attitudes toward language learning. However, these differences are not always determined by biological factors alone; social, cultural, and psychological influences also shape learning outcomes. This article reviews theoretical perspectives and empirical findings concerning gender and language learning. It discusses the influence of gender on motivation, learning strategies, classroom interaction, and second-language performance. The paper argues that educators should create inclusive learning environments that recognize individual differences rather than relying on stereotypes.
