How Best Do You Learn?

How Best Do You Learn?

Last updated on November 27th, 2020 at 05:46 pm

Have you ever wondered why some people are so attentive in a class, while others, as much as they try, can hardly stay awake?

The answer lies in the differences in the way you learn.  There are 3 main types of learning styles out there.  Some experts go as far as explaining 7 different styles.  But for the sake of this post and introducing you to the basics, we will look at only the 3 main types.

  • Auditory learners

  • Visual learners and

  • Kinesthetic learners (Hands On)

Auditory learners are the students in your class who need absolute silence  because their ears are crucial to learning. You can spot them out because they are the ones asking everyone to “Be quiet!”. They learn best by hearing the lesson.
 
Visual learners are easily identified because when working on a project, they are the ones who create the beautiful charts, diagrams and power point presentations. Visual learners learn best by sight. As long as a visual learner can read through the lesson, they may need little to no explanation from a teacher.
 
Kinesthic learners are the students who is usually the most bored in the classroom setting traditionally used in the Bahamas. He or she must touch and feel the lesson.   Sometimes it is best if this person stands up  and walk around the class in order to take in the information better.   Field trips are an excellent way to learn the material. Unfortunately, our school system in the Bahamas does not cater strongly to the need of the kinesthetic learner.
 
Discovering your learning style empowers you to excel in your lessons. It relieves you from being entirely at the mercy of the traditional way of teaching.  You may find that you have a combination of learning styles but are stronger in one style over the next.
