The research field: Each person has a particular approach to learning with which he or she feels most comfortable. In other words, students learn more readily when they process information in their own natural and preferred ways. Styles give general direction to learning behavior . Learning styles are general, broad approaches used to learn a subject. In Reid’s (1995) research, learning styles were defined as “individual's natural, habitual and preferred ways of absorbing, processing, and
retaining new information and skills" (p. 38).Reid (1998) also stated learning styles havebeen used as a focus for assisting students inhigher education to realize their full learningpotential.2.

Some studies revealedstudents' learning styles should be taken intoconsideration when designing teachingmethods and teaching syllabuses (Kolb, 1984;Griggs, 1999) while others discovered thatlearning styles vary greatly among learnerswith different language proficiencyorlearning strategies (Davidson, 1990; Dunn,1998).3.
