The article is an attempt to show the relationship between teachers’ sensory preferences (represented by the VAK model) and the degree of acceptance, level of application, and form of
work with new media. The article presents the results of pilot studies, as well as the results of the proper research conducted in 2019 in a group of 367 teachers. The research referred to was carried out in the Kujawsko-Pomorskie Voivodeship (Poland). The selection of the research group was random. The research was quantitative, and additionally supported by qualitative analysis. The statistics presented were determined using the χ2 test, as well as using the Cramer V coefficient. The conducted research shows, that sensory preferences of respondents do not remain indifferent to the learning process. They determine the activities of teachers and directly create a working environment for students.
