Identify your preferred VARK learning style (visual, auditory, reading/writing, or kinesthetic).
Create a post in the appropriate section that details your study strategy and why it works for you.

As an Auditory learner, I connect more with the information by actively hearing and listening. If I want to learn something, I tend to listen carefully, and if it is necessary, I like to repeat it as many times as I need.

When it comes to studying something, one of the things that has been helping me the most is reading out loud the information that I want to take in, sometimes, I write down the main ideas as well.

When it comes to presenting something, I usually feel confident and it is just easy for me to talk with others even if I have never seen them before.

One of the things that I struggle with is graphics and diagrams; I prefer to read an article or watch a video instead.

Kinesthetic is THE learning style for me. I feel that I never fully grasp a concept/activity until I get the chance to try it hands-on. Whether its math or Karate class, the most improvement I get is when I go through the task physically. This is the reason I favored "Poster" assignments in High School. I'd be given the chance to personally fetch information, and lay it out in a more or less unique way. Looking back, this way of sourcing info and products on my own, helped reinforce learning concepts the best in my head.

Let's take it to the dojo. A student must perform a karate move hundreds or thousands of times to master it fully, regardless of how perfect it is shown to them. I know this fact well, as I have been doing martial arts for nearly a decade.

Once completing the VARK quiz, I wasn't overly surprised by the result stating I am a strong kinesthetic learner. Some of my best learning experiences in the past have been hands on and taking the risk of doing it incorrectly. I have found that I learn just as much from my mistakes or if not better than accomplishing a task immediately. When applying kinesthetic learning techniques to my current and very new experience of attending university classes, I can anticipate that I will try a few methods of study before I find one or two that best suit me.

Visual learning

Visula learning includes using maps, diagrams, pictures or videos to understand and remember the information. We use it because it makes easier to understand or remember and recall .

using objects to help us visualize the problems more and help us understand it better, example color coding notes, highlight certain areas that you could visualize more, videos, or even podcasts

Kinesthetic Learners - Group 2

As our group is kinesthetic learners we learnt from past experiences, seminars and from real life assessments. Certain situations such as hands on group projects helps us better understand the topics better. It keeps us more focused.

Most of our break out participants like the use of flashcards while incorporating movement such as pacing or walking. teaching was brought up as a kinesthetic approach to learning. if the body moves, the brain moves.

Auditory Learner

I like to listen and repeat things in my head a numerous amount of times until i can remember. I listen to audio recordings of different things that i am learning about while i do chores in my house or whilst i workout. I feel confident to talk for some presentations, i say some because I can freely talk and come up with what to say on the spot when it is about something that interests me. It is harder for me to talk about things I don't know about right away or things i am not interested in.

Kinesthetic Learning

Most of our group had discussed how we like to rewrite our notes by hand instead of typing them out. Some members said they like to write out their notes by memory and study what they forgot.

using the colour coding in the assignments.
watching videos with instructions.
Using flowcharts that show the steps and procedure.
using flash cards with images.

I always prefer to be able to have a conversation and bounce ideas back and forward if not just listening it's just what works best in my opinion.

I like to listen and repeat things that works the best for me. Simply reading or just watching the visuals doesn’t work for me i need to listen and understand i think that has worked the best for me

Most of our group talked about how we prefer learning by actually doing the work, hands on work, projects, working on something and learning from mistakes etc. More hands on rather than listening.

Our group is very hands on with learning new information rather than just listening or reading.

We prefer to create posters, have projects, and write out the notes by hand to have a better understanding of the material.

Group 1 - Visual Learners

2025-09-10 22:05:54 UTC

Visual learning helps us to recall information, understand, and also visualize what we are learning. That's includes videos, making diagrams, and drawing out images that correlate to our topics in our courses.

Hands-on learner seeing people do it, then trying it out ourselves. Look at examples of the task that we have at hand, looking at diagrams and mind maps. We enjoy taking physical activity breaks, whether it’s just in between lectures or listening to lectures while going for a walk.
