摘要：Due to the complexity of learning in general, as well as second language learning, it is very important for language teachers to create a classroom environment where their students can achieve their maximum during the given period. The first part of this paper gives an overview of the literature dealing with the differences between cognitive and learning style, as well as learning strategies. It was found that learners achieve the best results in learning when learning circumstances are appropriate to their cognitive and learning styles. Language learners are found to be influenced by different methods of learning not only by their cognitive styles, but depending on their age. Research in sla associated with the styles and learning strategies did not confirm that all relevant differentiations for learning in general play an important role in language learning (e.g. field-dependence research in sla is not conclusive). However, findings are useful for language teachers, hence they should, among other things, be instructed to identify the cognitive style and learning style typical of their students, to offer them a variety of ap- propriate activities. Therefore the second and the third part of the paper offer some basic characteristics of analytic and global cognitive styles, as well as audio, visual and kinesthetic learning styles, along with some useful activities for Croatian L2 learners with each of them.
