description This paper discusses the correlation between young learners’ writing performance and their learning styles when PowerPoint was used in teaching writing skills. This study focuses on the sensory learning styles which comprises visual, auditory, kinesthetic and tactile learning styles (perceptual learning style).

The analysis of results shows that students with various learning styles performed better when PowerPoint was used in the teaching of writing. However, the increase was not statistically significant.
