Match or Mismatch? Learning Styles and Teaching Styles in EFL.

Peacock, Matthew

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, v11 n1 p1-20 2001

Investigated Reid's (1987) hypothesis that a mismatch between teaching and learning styles causes learning failure, frustration, and demotivation. Data were collected through Reid's questionnaire, interviews, and tests using 206 English-as-a-foreign-language (EFL) students and 46 EFL teachers at a Hong Kong university. (Author/VWL)
