(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2024) García Perez, Leonardo Andrés; Gordillo Muñoz, Greisy Andrea
This work proposes a literature review about the way adult EFL learners learn through the andragogy principles, self-direct learning and the role of extrinsic and intrinsic motivational factors. The purpose of this study is to examine the key elements that affect the learning experiences of EFL adult students in oral production. This is a qualitative study carried out under the epistemological paradigm and focused specially on a conceptual review and some background check. The methodological paradigm of this study is hermeneutics. The analysis is a semi-systematic review. An epistemological chart is the instrument that will be used to identify, compare and analyze information. The study’s findings suggest that educators need to embrace a learner-centered approach rooted in andragogical principles. By cultivating self directed learning, understanding motivational factors, and taking advantage of innovative andragogical strategies, educators can create inclusive learning environments that empower adult EFL learners to achieve their language learning goals
