Useful as a getting to know you activity in a first lesson. Students do a questionnaire about how they learn best then think critically about the notion of learning styles or multiple intelligences.

An extract from the worksheet:

Do you agree or disagree with the statements below?

Circle the appropriate number (1 = strongly agree; 4 = strongly disagree).  Then discuss your answers with a partner.

  1. When I try to recall a word or a grammar explanation, I remember what my class notes looked like or what the explanation looked like in the book.

1    2    3    4
  1. I learn successfully on my own.

  1. I learn successfully by interacting with other people.

  1. I’m good at solving logic puzzles and at working out the ‘rules’ or patterns of a language.

Have you used this resource?

I plan to use it to help my adult students understand why they may be having problems with feeling "comfortable" at the start of a new academic year, with a new teacher.

Very helpful to be used at the start of a course to find out what type of learners we have and how to approach their learning style.!
