Learning Styles

There are different learning styles that children may favor, including visual, aural, verbal, physical, logical, social, and solitary styles. Each child's learning preferences are unique, but they will likely favor several styles rather than just one. Understanding a child's learning styles helps parents choose the best curriculum and allows the child to get the most from their homeschool experience.

LEARNING STYLES

PRESENTED BY:ELSHANA MUSTAFAYEVA


• How do Children Learn?
Every child has different learning preferences. Among the different ways of learning,
some prefer to learn by hearing, some by seeing, others by doing, some by reading and
others by asking questions. One thing all students have in common is that they all learn
best when they can incorporate items and topics that interest them into their studies, for
example, building blocks, music, fashion, airplanes, etc.

While there are different learning styles, your student will likely favor several styles and
not just one. However, you may be able to see patterns in their learning preferences. For
example, a student who is a visual learner may also be a very social and verbal learner
who prefers to learn especially difficult topics using their primary skills.

Understanding how your student learns is perhaps one of the most important parts of
homeschooling your child. Learning styles allow your child to get the most from their
homeschool experience, and helps parents choose the best curriculum for their children.
Visual (spatial) Learner

Visual learners are those who prefer


learning by observing things. Using
pictures, images, diagrams,
whiteboards and more helps these
types of learners understand
information better. These students
can easily visualize information,
have a good sense of direction and
usually likes to draw and doodle.
Aural (auditory) Learner
Sound and music are a strong suit for
these types of learners who typically
have a good sense of rhythm. These
learners are usually singers or
musicians who are familiar with
different instruments and the sounds
they make. Aural learners are good
listeners who normally learn best
through verbal presentations like
lectures and speeches.
Verbal (linguistic) Learner
These learners prefer using words,
both in speech and writing. They can
easily express themselves and usually
love to read and write. Verbal learners
tend to have a vast vocabulary and
excel in activities that involve
speaking, debating, and journalism.
Physical (kinesthetic)
Learner
Whether it’s by using their body or hands,
these learners are all about the sense of
touch. Physical activities and sports play
a big part in these student’s lives. Getting
hands-on is a must for these learners who
love to tinker and learn best when they
can do rather than see or hear.
Logical (mathematical)
Learner
If there is logic, reasoning and numbers
involved, these learners are sure to
excel. These students function and
solve complex problems by employing
strategies and their scientific way of
thinking. Computer programming,
math and science are usually favored
by these types of learners.
Social (interpersonal) Learner

Learning in groups and working with


others is favored by social learners.
These students know how to
communicate effectively and enjoy
collaborating with others, brainstorming
and discussing ideas and concepts. Social
learners are generally good listeners who
are thoughtful and understanding.
Solitary (intrapersonal)
Learner
These students prefer to use self-
study and work alone. They are
independent and are very self-aware
and in tune with their thoughts and
feelings. These learners prefer being
away from the crowds and learn best
in a quiet place where they can focus
on the task at hand.
