Abstract
Logical/mathematical intelligence is one of eight types of intelligence described in Multiple Intelligence Theory (Gardner, 1983). People with significant logical/mathematical intelligence are good at logical reasoning, problem-solving and scientific investigation. The study included two groups of engineering students attending an ESP course. The first group was taught ESP on activities based on deductive reasoning, detecting patterns, logical thinking and problem-solving tasks. The second group was taught according to conventional language teaching practice. The results show better results for the group which was exposed to teaching that was more suited to learners with strong logical/mathematical intelligence.
