A five Likert scale questionnaire, consisting of 36 items was classified under four strategy categories was administrated to 466 participants from the Duhok University. The Statistical Package of Social Science (SPSS, version 20) was used to analyse the obtained data. The results of the descriptive statistics showed that Duhok university students were medium strategy users. The study also found that the cognitive strategies were the most popular strategies among the learners. Social strategies were found to be the least preferred strategies. The results of the t-test showed that in general, the scores of female learners regarding the use of VLSs were slightly higher than male learners. Moreover, ELT learners were found to be more strategy users than ELL learners. The results of ANOVA revealed significant differences regarding the use of VLSs and grade levels.
