English serves as the medium of instruction for many subjects in higher education. Good language learners tend to employ a variety of language learning strategies (LLS) according to their preference. The range of language learning strategies adopted by Malaysian primary school pupils could be further explored through reviewing the range of methods employed by these learners. Hence, this research seeks to identify language learning strategies utilised for improving vocabulary, among high proficiency English language learners in a primary school located in Selangor, Malaysia. A quantitative research design was utilised using the survey method to collect research data. Thirty upper primary school pupils of high proficiency level were selected using a purposive sampling technique to participate in this study. The findings indicate that high proficiency upper primary pupils mostly prefer utilising cognitive and metacognitive strategies in language learning, while memory-based strategies were least favoured. These findings will provide primary ESL educators with valuable insights on the implementation of effective vocabulary acquisition strategies to optimise their pupils' learning outcomes.  \nKeywords: Vocabulary, Language Learning Strategy, Primary Students, Chills, Esl  \nIntroduction  \nLanguage is developed more easily and effectively when the learners are young (Ma et al, 2021) . The English language is no exception as many children and students are learning them at home holistically. From parents introducing names of animals in English, until having full blown conversations with them about simple topics. Critical Period Hypothesis suggests with evidence that for language acquisition, there is a certain period in which a child’s brain is the most responsive and attuned to learning language (Dollmann et al. 2020) . Singleton and Le´sniewska (2021) claimed that there is a consensus where the critical period is between birth and puberty.  \nINTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ACADEMIC RESEARCH IN BUSINESS AND SOCIAL SCIENCES  \nVol. 1 4 , No. 7, 2024, E-ISSN: 2222-6990 © 2024  \nYoung children are very good at learning parts of language; sounds, vocabulary, and linguistic structure during that period. A research by He (2024) reaffirmed this hypothesis by proving that children are easier to be successful in acquiring a foreign language than normal adults. Thus, making them have a slide edge in second language acquisition. Language development is in conjunction with cognitive development. Language skills are the foundations of some cognitive processes like reasoning, problem solving and memorisation. The reason is that through language, young children gain an understanding to classify things, to communicate or convey feelings and thoughts, as well as to grasp intricate ideas.  \nBased on research by Botes et al.,(2020), language skills and confidence are closely related to academic success. In school, children need good language proficiency to comprehend instructions, join class discussions, and most importantly read and write. Across multiple subjects in school, language is being used thoroughly to explain complex academic concepts.
