#5 Learning Styles (freewrite, 10 minutes)

The learning styles have pointed out that I am very visual learner in which I have scored 9 out of 10. It is not surprising because of my deafness. I had to learn by seeing my whole life. I rather look at pictures, graphs and charts that explained the concepts. I learn faster when things are explained visually. In fact, when I am in class and explanations are given verbally, I do not understand it so I go home and teach myself the subject. Because I am a visual learner, it helps to learn things in a sequential manner. Again, this visual and sequentially learning needs to have a strong facts and practical information in which sensory comes in.

Again, not surprisingly, I scored really high on Naturalistic (67%). I love being outdoors with nature so learning about ecosystems, species of animals, natural processes and physical geography come easy to me. It is said that people with Naturalistic intelligence should become scientist and that is exactly what I intend to do. The next highest score was logical-mathematical learner (56%). This fits the bill because I am always curious about how things work, especially with environment, weather, and earth processes. This goes with my sensory learning abilities to look for rational explanations with concrete facts. Other learning styles that I have scored are Bodily Kinesthetic (8%), Musical (0%), Interpersonal (44%), Intrapersonal (46%), Visual-Spatial (25%), and Verbal-Linguistic (25%).
