Use Learning Styles to Improve
Your Child's Learning

When my oldest was learning the multiplication and division facts, I knew she learned through pictures (visual-spatial learner) but only knew of the flashcard method for drilling those facts into her head.

After much drudgery and not a lot of progress, I went to Google for a solution. I found Memory Joggers which uses stories and pictures to teach the facts. She learned the facts in 4 weeks and still remembers them 3 years later!

THAT is the power of learning styles!

Why Bother With Learning Styles?

It takes effort to teach how your child learns.

But, consider the alternative. If your child's learning strengths don't match how you're teaching, the result can be:

  • underachievement
  • frustration (for everyone)
  • low self-esteem
  • learning difficulties

There are children (in public, private, AND home schools) struggling because there is a mis-match between the education methods and how they learn best.

Don't let this happen to your child!

Use Your Child's Modality - Learning At It's Best.

There are two types of visual learners. 
Knowing your child's type makes the difference between struggling or success!

Can your child do math problems in her head, but barely pass a written exam? Does your child not pay attention while seated at the table, but can quote you verbatim while listening on the floor with a pile of legos in front of him?

These are examples of how your child processes information. Some children remember everything they hear or do. Others learn easily through words or pictures.

Your child's learning is more efficient (and enjoyable) when you provide lessons and activities that match his modality.
