Abstract
This research study aimed to measure and compare the MI profile of urban and rural primary school students to understand the relationship between intelligence type and English language learning. A cross-sectional research design was adopted to solve the query, and using purposive sampling techniques, two (02) of the schools, one each, i.e., urban & rural, were selected, and twenty-six students from each school were included in the study sample. Both genders were given equal representation. A standardized test was used to measure the participants' MI; later, a test for grade-five level students was constructed to measure their proficiency in all language skills, i.e., listening, speaking, reading, and writing. The standardized and language proficiency test results were compared, showing a relationship between linguistic-verbal Intelligence and language learning, and has ultimately proved the theory proposed by Harward Gardner.
