This article presents the results of the Research Project entitled “Creation of a New English Language Learning Culture”. The authors have the hope that English study at the university can be improved with the formation of a new leaning culture that made the students excellent learners. Theoretical and empirical methods allowed the analysis and characterization of the problem: the learners do not know how to learn English, as well as the elaboration of the New Culture and a strategy for its application, directed to achieve better learnings for the communicative, interactive and intercultural competences. A system of actions was designed and put into practice with students from Foreign Language Studies at the University of Pinar del Rio. The teachers and the students themselves are the mediators to achieve to learn to learn the language. The results reflect the transformations made in the students’ traditional culture in favor of the new one where enjoyable, motivating, dynamic, faster and more efficient learning take place.
