The present study sought to investigate the preference of Korean high school students and college students towards integrated and isolated form-focused instruction in learning English language forms. It also attempted to examine whether their preference towards the two different types of form-focused instruction differs depending on student variables (i.e.,,levels of schools and grammar knowledge) and language variables (i.e.,, difficulties and types of language forms). To this end, 180 high school students and 180 college students were asked to complete a questionnaire and a grammar test. A series of statistical analyses showed that the students generally preferred integrated form-focused instruction to isolated form-focused instruction. It also suggested that the preference for isolated form-focused instruction differed in terms of the students’ levels of schools, and that the preferences for the two types of form-focused instruction differed depending on the types of language forms.
