How I Learn

SUMMARY

I am a visual learner. I learn best by seeing and hearing something described to me at the same time. I learn well from Khan Academy videos (and similar ones on Youtube) because someone is explaining and showing me the process at the same time. I NEED to take notes to learn; it helps me summarize as I am learning. I like to carry out new skills I have learned in a very methodical and analytical way. I will most likely ask a lot of questions to make sure I understand something before I try it on my own. Sometimes, when I am learning about a new concept/skill, I will focus more on my questions than on the information, and I won't hear what someone is explaining because I am overly concerned with my question. Due to this, I often write down my question for later so that my brain can focus on what I am being told. I am intrapersonal; I know myself and how I learn/function best. I do well in learning situations where I have the opportunity to reflect/journal on what I am learning and how it affects me. I always did well in school because my linguistic and logical intelligences are strong (the two most taught and tested intelligences in public education). Naturalistic and Musical are currently my two weakest intelligences, but I know I can build them. Some ideas I have to enhance these two intelligences include: sing more when I'm driving in the car, put on music more when I study/work, learn to play the guitar/piano, take more walks outside, run/workout outside, go on hikes this summer.
