Enormous changes have taken place in second and foreign language learning over recent decades
(Rossi-Le, 1989). Currently, there is a growing interest in the factors that influence the learning of
the four language skills. This accepted interest is especially reflected in the field of Applied
Linguistics, which has shifted its emphasis towards learners and learning (Cook, 2013). In order to
prosper in this complex process, students need to get over some obstacles. However, the way they
face these difficulties in the classroom setting seems to vary among them due to the different ways
they usually perceive information (Skills, 2007). Hence, this final postgraduate dissertation
examines the learning strategies that allow foreign language students to deal with the problems that
may arise during their learning process, which may be influenced by their learning styles. In
particular, it focuses on direct reading strategies and more specifically with their manifestation in
the assorted sensory preferences in English as a foreign language context. Then, it aims to prove
that perception varies among individuals and therefore, learners do not use the same learning
strategies when they are reading. Finally, the results of a small-scaled study are shown with the
intention to provide some evidences that seem to demonstrate conclusively that learning styles have
an impact on the direct reading strategies that learners use. [-]
