And also to discuss the correlation between perceptual learning styles and English learning strategies. Furthermore, the predictability based on perceptual learning styles and English learning strategies were analyzed. This study was conducted through the questionnaire-survey method. Subjects were 875 elementary school students from Miaoli County. The total samples are 910, from which 875 are effective. The effective rate is 96. The questionnaires were evaluated by Perceptual Learning Styles Scale and English Learning Strategies Scale. The data was analyzed by t-test, one-way ANOVA, product-moment correlation, and multiple regression analysis. The results of the study were as follows: (a)The students in Miaoli preferred Kinesthetic/Tactile styles and Cognitive strategies to Compensation strategies. (b)There were significant differences in the different background variables of the elementary school students concerning perceptual learning styles and English learning strategies. (c)There were significant positive correlations in terms of perceptual learning styles and English learning strategies. (d)Perceptual learning styles could significantly predict English learning strategies. The study suggests that teachers should change the teaching plane with different styles of students of different backgrounds.
