Warming-up
What is your learning style and strategy?
There are many categories of learning styles, and here are some of them.
Visual learners learn best when information is presented as something such as a picture or a drawing. Do you do best in classes in which teachers do a lot of writing on the blackboard and make full use of TV?
Auditory learners learn best when information appears as sounds. Do you seem to learn best in classes where teachers speak more? Does listening to tapes help you learn better?
Tactile learners learn best in hands-on learning settings in which they can use something or play with it in order to learn about it. Do you learn better when you touch or handle things?
Read the following learning activities and think about what you often do in your daily learning routine.

By making mind maps.
3.Does Li Ming like to keep a learning diary? Why or why not?
Yes, he does. Because it helps him plan his learning and what needs to review for exams.
Amy: Hi, Li Ming. Ready for the test? Do you have any study tips for me
Li Ming: Not really. I just listen to the teacher and take notes.
Amy: Oh, group work is my favourite way to learn. I`m an outgoing person, so I like to discuss things. Talking to others helps me remember things
Li Ming: I,m not very good at group work but I have other ways of remembering things. I like using flash cards. They are really effective
Amy:Hmm... Notes and flash cards.. I think you're a visual learner
Li Ming: Yes, I guess so. I learn best when I look at pictures, so I make mind maps to organise my thoughts. I keep a learning diary, too. I write down what I've learnt and my thoughts. It helps me plan my learning and what I need to review for exams
Amy: Ah, that's a good idea. I want to try that! My friends and I have a study group. We talk about what we're learning and help each other. Why don't you join us?
Li Ming: Sure, I'd like that

One possible version
As we all know, English is becoming more and more important and there are many different ways to learn it. Now, it’s my great honor to share my learning strategies with you.
In my view, the Internet is a good platform for us to learn English, where we can listen to English songs and watch English movies. Besides, learn words from English books and use them in communication as possible as we can. Remember, don't be afraid of making mistakes. In the long run, the more we speak, the fewer mistakes we'll make. In addition, it's a good idea to keep an English diary every day, which can enlarge vocabulary as well as improving writing skills.
In a word, as long as we do more listening, speaking, reading and writing, we will learn English well.
