You´re reading this because you want to learn about you skills,
specially to discover the type of learner you are. First I invite you to know
more about the learning styles.

you as visual, auditory or kinesthetic learner allows you to access information
in terms you are comfortable with. It will increase your academic confidence.

What is a learning style?
We can understand the learning style as a group of characteristics ,
attitudes and behavior that define our way of learning.
Different styles influence the form you learn, how
teachers teach and how is the interaction between you and your teacher.
Learning preferences
They

take notes and write the instructions.
Nadia, the article you have written is very attractive and interesting. It caught my attention the challenge to figure out my learning style (I even took the test). Now, I feel like sometimes as teachers we can forget that students learn differently and that we have to take their needs and learning styles into consideration and not just make things simple for ourselves. The material that you presented is very helpful because it’s a great resource to see what the different learning styles are like and helps to give ourselves an idea of how to implement them in our everyday classroom. I also liked the different colors and pictures you added to your post, it made it very attractive. :)
ResponderBorrarThank God for human diversity as it helps us learn from each other. I also belive that we all have a little something of everything and talking about types of intelligence is exactly the same, but there is always a part that overcomes the others. When teachers are able to identify the types of intelligence of his class, it helps him set activities and strategies that makes learning easier for his students. As teachers, we can not be selfish and believe that our students learn the same way we learn. And fortunately, nowadays there is a lot of information about this topic that makes understanding easy and we can find many activities to work with each type of intelligence. Education has advanced and we can not lay back and not consider all these theories and material.
ResponderBorrarThank you for reminding me how important this is. I do love your post and I also think that as teacher we need to be very careful when monitoring our students and we need to understand that if we like to be view as a good teacher different from other teachers, but good teachers. There are also students that are good students different from other students, but good students.
ResponderBorrarAs teachers it is always challenging all the process about identifying the learning styles and the types of intelligences, but once we do, we can use those wonderful styles to create amazing things, and of course it is also an opportinity for us to learn in a professional manner and to improve our classes and techniques.

ResponderBorrarSpeaking about types of intelligence, is really important, because it is a topic of great impact for professional development in teaching process, in this time we all learn from everyone and even more with the impact of digital marketing that has exceeded expectations.
ResponderBorrarReally, I think we all have a little bit of each learning style, since we have all the tools to learn and develop our knowledge to its concrete base of understanding.
But, our challenge as teachers is to design strategies which implement the use of all styles to make the students capable of analyzing through mathematical criticism although his or her method is visual.
