This article explores the language-learning experiences of two adult Uzbek women, Anvara and Rakhima, foregrounding identity, motivation, and investment within Second Language Acquisition (SLA). It shows how social background, gender, learning style, and personal circumstances shape their language learning process. Drawing on the frameworks of Darvin & Norton and Dörnyei, the paper analyses each learner’s strengths and weaknesses and outlines implications for teaching practice.
