Who I Am As A Learner Analysis

After answering questions from Learning Style Inventory I found out that I am a visual learner. Which means I like to organize work to avoid distractions. Makes sense to me I hate to work where all paperwork is all over the place, I actually have to organize it so I won’t be distracted. I like as well to use flash card, visual strategies to improve memory. I also like to do list, to make sure I did everything I was supposed to do today. I also learned that as teacher we have to learn what type of learner our students are so we can use appropriate strategies that will help them in their learning

I always thought I was more of a visual learner and more hands-on learner than a verbal learner

After taking the learning styles assessment it was found that I am a visual learner most of all followed by tactile and auditory. This meaning that I like to see what I am learning, I am able to understand things and later recall what I have seen. I honestly have to say that I do not agree with these results; I say that because after reading and just knowing how I am, I believe my best type of learning is through tactile, I have been this way since elementary school. When you are a tactile person you like to learn and pick up the information best through touching and doing things, you are very hands-on. Versus someone who is a visual learner just needs to see it or read it. Some of the characteristics a tactile person has is completely me; such as I am always doing something, I like to be hands on, when I talk I move my hands sort of like I am trying to act out what I am saying, I always have my legs going or am swaying side to side, like flashcards to study with, and am always chewing gum.

After hard work I finally found out I am a kinesthetic, right brained learner. To begin, I used many tools to figure it out including a computer test and survey sheets. My favorite one was the computer test, it said i was a kinesthetic learner. On the characteristic worksheet it stated that I am mostly right brained. That made me confused because for left brain it said, “Good at math” and I’m very good at math. I am right brained because of the way I can be successful. I am better by having a partner to help me work. I always work better with a partner because I can talk through things. I love to learn when I can do it having fun. I can finish work quickly if I focus on the work. If I do my work around tons of noise I can’t do my work. I use

A kinesthetic learner learns best by moving their bodies to activate their large or small muscles as they learn. This definitely fits me to the T. I never sit still; my hand and mouth have to be constantly moving in order for me to focus and retain any information. It also explains why my first grade teacher sent me home with multiple letters stating that I needed to be put on Ritalin. But that’s not all. I also learned from

I’m mostly on the internet , which is bad I know but everyone likes the internet. I love to go on adventures and explore new things or places with my friends. One thing that I like to do is take pictures of anything artsy that I see. I feel that I am a visual learner. I like to look at examples. Looking at examples helps me better than the teacher just telling us what to do but not showing us examples. I feel as if it helps me more. I’m also an auditory learner. I like to hear some noise when i’m working. It helps me contrast better.Like listening to music makes me focus even more. Even if it’s the littlest of noise. It could be any kind of noise. When my teacher told me to take a test about what kind of learning styles it said I was more auditory than visual. At first I was arguing with it but now I am more auditory than visual. I am both but i’m more

Who am I as a learner? I am an Auditory Learner. Which means that I learn way better if I listen to music or if I am listening to my teacher tell me exactly what to do. I really do not like to work with other people. Especially with horrific group projects, like last year I worked with eight people for our trail project. I am used to working alone, so, I took my work home and finished exactly what only I, Karlee Olson could do. Which was my speech. I really hate when I have to read my instructions because I am not a bad reader at all but I just do not like it. Unless it's a good book I LOVE reading, but if It’s not that... Heck no. I would really rather listen to someone read me a story, then me having to read it myself because stuff just makes

I learn best by actually finding something interesting or fun to learn about. I do not really learn by writing things down because sometimes you write something down and it is way more different than the real subject. Listening does not not help me learn also because I daydream a lot and then I do not pay attention to what is being read. Looking at pictures does a bit of the job because it helps you see things and then you will memorize them. Looking at pictures is a better way for me to learn because it is more easier to just see the pictures memorize them and then just go along with the next things. Writing things also helps me learn a bit more by just having at least relocatable notes that will help you with something later on. Sometimes I work fast and slow in my classes, it sometimes depends on how I am feeling because if I am feeling down then I do not feel like doing no work at all and if I am feeling energetic or happy i do my work and i do it very well.

I learned hand dexterity from elementary all the way to high school. I have always had fine motor skills when it came to my hands. I write neat and it has always been that way. I learned to observe from family. They have always taught me to watch my surrounding and be very observant. When I use to out into public my family showed me how to observe and watch out for danger. They taught me that I have to listen and be more in tune with my environment to protect myself.

For the results of my quiz, I found out that I am fifty percent auditory, forty percent visual and ten percent tactile. I agree with the results saying that I am primarily auditory and visual with my learning style. I do not receive any benefit from tactile learning experiences. For example, when in animal science class, I understood what we were doing when he explained the directions, compared to when he let us explore the lab before explaining. I appreciate when I hear directions compared to being allowed to have a hands on experience with no direction. I gain a greater understanding when I can hear what I need to do before I have to go complete a task. One strategy I believe would be effective is studying by reading new materials out loud.

I am advanced in math but I get excellent grades in art too. I am very musical, I will agree with my quizzes on that. I love music and I tie an emotion to about every song I hear so I can feel exactic, angry, sad, weird, and crazy. Some aged songs that I heard with a kid take me back to when I was 5 and I remember how I danced to that song. I have a spectacular memory, so I can remember seeing things more than remembering them. I remember people’s faces more than I remember their names. I am tactile; however, I don’t necessarily need to touch something to remember it if I really know about it but it can help significantly. I have a gecko and I could see how different it’s skin was from a snake or something and an expert could describe it for me, but I couldn’t really know how it felt unless I felt it for myself. Someone could describe how their project looks and feels but I would have to see and touch it to really understand for myself how it looks and feels. I can learn by hearing, but it is not my strong suit, if Mrs. Burdick or a math teacher tried to explain how integers worked just by telling us, I most likely would have trouble remembering it and knowing what she was talking

One learner trait that I am weak at, and I need to be honest about is I am not hugely

Everything in life you have to think about even if you want to sit down or not so knowledgeable l is in everybody, but I think I use knowledgeable about baseball more than anything. If we never thought about things we wouldn't be living right now. I am also a visual learner because if I can’t see the stuff I do its kinda hard to do. The reason why i’m a visual learner is because I like to look at stuff and what i’m supposed to be doing. I am a kinesthetic learner because I like to know what’s going and I like to touch stuff. Im also a partner type of guy i’m a social learner but I also like to work by

What does this piece reveal about you as a learner? What did you learn about yourself as you worked on this piece?

Spending a whole year in your class should be pretty amazing. Considering you seem like a laid back teacher. I just hope my predictions are correct. Not only are you going to see me almost every day for about 7 months, you are going to see me on my bad days, good days, and I just don’t want to be at school days. So take a seat and get ready to read an essay that only shows most of who I am. In this essay you are going to figure out who I am as a student, and how my life at home is, and what I expect you to do as a teacher this year.
