Abstract

If the classroom teaching-learning practices are based on the learning style preferences of the learners of EFL/ESL, the language learning can take place effectively. However, in this regard learners’ learning style preferences have to match with teachers’ perceptions about the tasks and activities to be done in the classroom. In Bangladesh the classroom teaching-learning practices, which are now followed to teach English as a foreign language, are not based on proper investigation of learners’ learning style preferences. Consequently, expected results are not found from classroom teaching. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the learning style preferences of the EFL learners of Bangladesh and take appropriate measures accordingly. Taking this point in view, the present researcher has attempted to investigate the learning style preferences of the EFL students at higher secondary level and then provide some suggestions in the light of the findings.
