Does your student get more from a story when he sees it in print or when he hears it read aloud? Does he need to draw or act it out to really understand it? Each child has his or her own learning style—a unique way of taking in and processing information.
Most teachers naturally use their own learning style when communicating with students. But, if you adapt your assignments and instructions to your students’ varied learning styles, it can make a big difference. Most kids use all of their senses for learning, but favor one over the others.

The school system in my city really push the learning styles teaching method. But from the research I’ve been reading, it seems like all kinds of learners no matter what their style learn the most when the material is presented visually unless it’s more specific to the activity e.g. learning a dance is best done kinestetically.
Do you have studies that show that teaching to each learning style, which requires a teacher to teach to all of them, is the best use of the teacher’s time?
