A Key to Learning

Good study habits are a great skill to master at any age. I didn't learn any study skills until my junior year in high school. A good friend who was a straight A student taught me how to study. I still use some of the skills she taught me as well as some tips I have picked up along the way. Part of the learning process and developing good study habits come with knowing what kind of learner you are. There are those who are auditory learners (learn by hearing) and those who are visual learners (learn by reading or seeing). There are also kinesthetic learners (learn by touching or doing). The best learning (studying) takes place when all of these methods are used.

In her book, Home-Life: The Key to Your Child's Success at School, Cheri Fuller writes about the different learning styles. She tells how to determine which learning style(s) you or your child has. She also gives activities and methods of studying that fit each style of learning.

Tips on how to study are coming soon.

Have a great day,Robin
