MAIN BODY
It is identified that every person has their own perception and learning style. Every
person has brain but use of brain is in the hands of person and it depends on their own style. It is
very important for a student that they know their own learning ways because it help in effective

person to person. One thing that should be clear in the mind that learning style is not same as the
multiple intelligence (Reynolds and et. al., 2021). It is analysed that every person thought that

their target with the use of learning. Multiple intelligence is the intellectual abilities whereas
learning styles is the particular way of learning. Multiple intelligence is broader term it includes

which helps to understand the learning style.
Honey and Mumford learning style developed by Peter Honey and Alan Mumford in
which they identified mainly four styles such as Pragmatist, Activist, Reflector and Theorist. Its
is identified that these styles are helpful in understand of own style. The main purpose of this
theory are to understand learning style and find out the opportunities to learn these styles. It is
