It is generally acknowledged that language classroom is an important environment for the learners and the efficiency of classroom may influence students’ performance and learning outcomes. In the classroom international environment, understanding gender and personality-related differences is important due to their potential relationship to interaction and educational outcomes. What is more, students’ behaviors in the classroom are strongly related with their academic achievements.For the past two decades, a lot of studies have been done to explore the learners’ individual differences in learning process. Among these studies, only a few have focused on the individual differences in classroom behaviors. Few studies have been conducted to explore classroom behaviors and gender. The test is focused on relations between students’ performance and learning outcomes.Methods were evaluated with Eysenck Personality Questionnaire(EPQ) and Classroom performance questionnaire by the designer of Elisabeth Hayes(1992:377) in the report. The present study is intended to track the differences of learners’ classroom behaviors and investigate the relationship between classroom performance and their academic achievements. Additional there are significant differences between academic record and classroom performance in “Verbal participation”, “Learning orientation”, “Support-seeking”, “Self-disclosure” and “Self-assurance”. The data of the study were primarily collected via a questionnaire survey of fifteenth middle school students in Guiyang city.Based on the discussion of the above results and findings, some tentative suggestions were put forward for both teachers and students. For students, they are advised to make full use of the classroom environment and seek helps from peers. It is better for them to be well aware of their own characteristics and advantages and develop an effective way of learning. For teachers, due attention should be paid to individual differences of students and it is of great importance to generate a supportive and comfortable classroom environment for better learning outcomes. Limitations of the study and suggestions for further studies are finally provided.
