Abstract
We live in a globalised and highly technological world, where the importance of knowing a language is a social need, regardless of the age. Nowadays, senior learners demand educational spaces where they can improve their social and personal development to remain active and integrated in the society. The main objective of this study is to analyse the factors that affect the English language learning process of adult learners. To do that, a SWOT analysis has been carried out. The results point out that despite certain physical and cognitive weaknesses and some language and social threats, this language learning process promotes a huge increase in their intrinsic motivation. They highlight the personal satisfaction as one of the key aspects.

Aula Abierta es una revista científica semestral (enero-junio y julio-diciembre) que publica artículos inéditos sobre Educación, de carácter empírico o teórico, en español o inglés, relevantes para los investigadores o los profesionales de la Educación, a quienes va dirigida la revista. Más del 75% de los artículos publicados serán trabajos empíricos, que comuniquen resultados de investigación originales. El resto, trabajos descriptivos sobre experiencias educativas innovadoras o de naturaleza teórica, serán publicados solo por propuesta o solicitud previa del Equipo de Dirección de la revista. El objetivo principal de Aula Abierta es contribuir a la difusión de la investigación educativa de calidad que se realiza en España. No obstante, la revista también está abierta a la publicación puntual de trabajos internacionales, que resulten de especial interés y supongan una contribución relevante al campo de la Educación.
