Have you got a learning strategy?
Learning is a lifelong process, but it happens in stages
(circles) and looks more like a spiral than a straight line. Look
at this diagram showing how learning happens.

Learning Styles What helps you learn and remember things better? Most people
have one main/favourite learning style, but some people have a
more balanced mix of three styles.
- People with the visual learning style use things that they can
see, such as pictures, diagrams, demonstrations, films, flip-chart,
etc, to learn more effectively.
- People with the auditory learning style style use things that they
can hear, such as audio recordings, lectures, songs, etc, to learn
more effectively.
- People with the kinaesthetic/physical learning style use
physical experience - touching, feeling, doing, practical activities,
etc, to learn things more effectively.

What does ‘learning English’ mean?
A good knowledge of vocabulary and grammar is
essential if you want to speak, write and understand
what you hear and read. But how can you improve
your vocabulary and grammar? Just listen, speak,
read and write! ☺

What does ‘learning English’ mean?
• Reading and listening help you learn to notice new words
and grammar; they also help you understand how new words
and grammar work in communication.
• Writing and speaking help you use the words and
grammar that you know to communicate with other people.
• You need to learn language (vocabulary and grammar) to
be able to practice your skills (listening, speaking, reading
and writing). One doesn’t work without the other.
