In this study we made an arguments review that support the socio-affective strategies use in second language acquisition, in order to extract from them the applicable characteristics in foreign language learning. Then, with that information we recommended which of those strategies could be put in practice in a foreign language learning class. This is not a conclusive study. It lets some light in the possibility to study this kind of strategies in a actual class’s situation
