Natural ability：In class，how much do you feel about learning English? Is it easy or difficult? Outside of class：How much do you use English in real life，learning things outside of class? Being abroad：Did you travel to English-speaking countries? How much time did you spend? Findings Academic performance helps, up to doubling your vocabulary size.
