The last 29 years of education in the democratic system in Romania have shown that the use of mastery learning strategies is not present in our nowadays teaching-learning process. Even though studies were carried out to show the effectiveness of these strategies teachers still feel reluctant whether to implement a mastery learning model or not. The subject emphasized in this paper is related to the implementation of a mastery learning strategy during the teaching of English as a second language in a public school in Bucharest, Romania.
