As we all know, no one has the same mind, no one thinks the same way, and very few people learn the same way. That is when VARK was developed. VARK stands for Visual, Audio, Reading/Writing, and Kinesthetic. these are all the different kinds of learning styles. For me, I am a kinesthetic learner, I like to do hands on activities. Along with many others, I learn best when I am able to physically learn to understand the topic, or when I can visually see what is going on. Just because I learn that way, doesn't mean that everyone else learns that way. And that means that the teacher can't ONLY teach to help me, the teachers have to teach in a variety of ways. Of course, they can't teach all different kinds of ways all the time, so they have to use a variety.
