Week Two... The Arrrrghh-V.A.R.K Results!

After completing the V.A.R.K questionnaire set for week two, I discovered that my result(s) point strongly towards being a Kinesthetic learner. The result really hit home, almost to the point of being up-set. Based on further research into this style, I've found my past learning technique may not have been solely correct for me, this could be a reason why I've struggled to absorb and concentrate on certain subjects.

Kinesthetic learners seem to enjoy being part of what is 'real', using a pro-active, hands-on approach to their studies. This approach suits me down to the ground and I better change my style of learning sharp-ish!

One thing I've been told over and over by others is that I am an extrovert. I haven't had any formal or informal tests to prove that assumption is true, but I do like to be part of 'something'. I feed from others and turn that energy into motivation. I can also work alone, but sometimes I can fade, taking light years for me to start, once i do start, there's no stopping me!

Now I understand what my style should be, I'm going to invest precious time and effort chasing sound advice and information to insure I make the most of the said learning technique. Anything to make my studying life has easy has possible!
