There have been several studies conducted which correlates

higher IQ level with learning language. However, I think a high

IQ probably helps to learn somewhat faster, but is not central to
learning languages. Most of the people I know within the
language learning community are very intelligent (a lot of them
are an absolute pleasure to chat with precisely because of that)
but what strikes the strongest impression about them is not how
intelligent they are, but rather how ingenious and habit-driven
they are, traits driven by completely different types of intelligence
than sheer processing power.
There's a regrettable lack of research on learning past second
language acquisition, so most literature on the effect of
languages on the mind is built on experiments with bilinguals. In
any case, what little I've read on this topic points out to IQ not
having much of an effect, as opposed to heightened cognitive
functions.

No matter how smart a person is if his understanding to language

doesn’t sit in easily, maybe because they struggle improving their
verbal capabilities of a new language. Some people with high IQ
are extremely introverted, mostly unable to verbalize their
thoughts, emotions, and ideas. Some are more adept with other
areas of intelligence and would prefer complex sciences, math,
and even programming. Language learning uses different
approach; hence, intelligence alone does not guarantee that one
is a good language learner.

Having high IQ is just a plus factor since this intelligence can help
learners to process, to comprehend, have the retention to
remember and put together new information quickly compared to
slower ones. But with the integration of those qualities I
mentioned above, learning a new language will come easy. In
every language for fluency to takes place, practice and dedication
are needed to achieve it.
