Any classroom will include learners of every persuasion. As teachers, we must try
to reach each of the seven learning styles in our instruction: visual, verbal,
physical, aural, logical, social and solitary. Though it is challenging to meet all of
these styles, it can be done. Here are some practical ways to teach to these styles
in your ESL classroom.
1. 1Visual
Visual learners learn best through what they SEE and are probably the
easiest to connect with through typical classroom instruction. By writing
words on the board or having your students read information in their textbooks or
on the internet, they receive visual input and are able to absorb the material you
present. In addition to these traditional learning tools, using pictures in class will
help meet the needs of the visual learners among your students. As it happens,
these methods all work well with language instruction, and your visual learners
may be some of your strongest students as a result.
Verbal
Verbal students learn through WORDS, both spoken and written, and
probably learn languages more easily than other types of learners. Since
verbal learners will be naturally drawn to language learning, you may find many of
them in your ESL classes. Incorporating both speaking and writing activities into
your classroom, something that almost every ESL teacher must do, will give these
students the types of input that will help them become not just second language
learners but also second language acquirers ???. Since ESL classes are verbally
focused and purposed, these may be the students who learn most easily in your
class, no matter what types of activities you do.
