Annotation: This paper explores the role of self-efficacy and self-regulated learning strategies among English language learners in Uzbekistan. The research compares two groups of undergraduate students—those majoring in English at the Uzbek State World Languages University (USWLU) and those studying English as a supplementary subject at the Tashkent University of Information Technologies (TUIT). Using both a structured questionnaire and interviews, the study analyzes how learners apply self-regulated strategies in developing skills such as reading, writing, listening, and speaking. Results show that while both groups actively use self-study methods, English majors demonstrate higher levels of self-efficacy and employ more advanced strategies. The findings suggest that integrating self-efficacy training into language education can significantly improve learner outcomes. The paper also highlights the influence of motivation, goal-setting, and technology in fostering language acquisition among Uzbek students.
