Being  an educators  the  ability  to  adjust  to the  different kinds  of  learners  created  a   another  task  of  knowing  who are your  learnings  recipients.  The  ability  to  understand  the  learners  differences  can be  a  great  help  to  teachers  in  planning  the  lessons   for  a   day.

Learning styles are classified into three categories: visual, auditory and kinesthetic. Teachers need to understand these styles to provide learning that is most comfortable to their pupils.

 

Visual learners usually need to see the process of a concept before they can really understand how or why it works. A person who has this style is someone who understands a concept through the use of visual aids such as pictures, diagrams or videos.

 

Auditory learners grasp thing easier when they are explained verbally and when they get a chance talk things out. They learn better listening to lectures, discussions and listening to tone and pitch.

 

Kinesthetic learners understand ideas better when they are fully involved and are actually performing the task or concept. They grasp concepts with hands on style of learning as kinesthetic.

 

Identifying learning styles is vital in the teaching and learning process. Teachers may use this as a basis for the strategies that they will utilize in optimizing pupil’s development.
