VARK Reflections

According to my VARK questionnaire, my preferred learning style is Read/Write. I would agree with this assessment, because I am usually most comfortable with learning when it involves skimming texts, studying books and taking notes, for which I nearly always simply write everything I need to know down- the act of writing nearly always allows me to recall most of my notes without actually reading them. This contrasts slightly with previous learning style tests I have taken, all of which classified me as a visual learner- whilst I think that this is true to some degree, as I do also find graphs, diagrams and other visual ways of representing data very helpful, I think that read/write is probably a more accurate category. Auditory is my weakest style, and I would say also my least favourite, but I find that most learning is not particularly auditory, so I am not particularly concerned by this. If I wanted to improve my auditory learning however, I would probably focus on my ability to retain information I hear, without necessarily having to write it down in the process.
