Individual differences play a significant role in EFL groups. These differences can greatly impact academic success or failure. The importance of individual differences is most evident in formal education, where obtaining an education is a primary pursuit for many individuals. Each person has their own unique way of responding to symbol systems and social cues, which they have developed over time. This individual aptitude for different situations is known as "individual differences".
