What is a Learning Style?

To put it simply, your learning style is the way you tend to learn best. It involves your preferred method of taking in, organizing, and making sense of information.

Learning styles do not tell us about a person's abilities or intelligence, but they can help us understand why some tasks seem easier for us than others.

There are several benefits of thinking about and trying to understand your learning preferences:

• people learn most effectively when the strategies used are closely matched with their preferred learning style
• sometimes we can improve our learning by knowing what our strengths are and then doing more of what we're good at
• often we can improve our learning by knowing what our weaknesses are and trying to enhance our skills in these areas
• different situations and learning environments require different learning strategies, so it's best to have a large repertoire from which to draw
