Learning Styles

I thought it would be fun to take some type of test to determine my learning style and thought some of you might like to as well. Here is the link for the quiz:

You Are an Intrapersonal Learner

Your mantra: To thy own self be true.

Intrapersonal intelligence has been said to be the road to achievement, learning, and personal satisfaction. You are connected to who you are and how you feel, and you know your own limits and abilities. You often set goals for yourself, self-manage, and reflect on results.

Those with intrapersonal intelligence do well in careers where self-management is important, such as being a writer, a teacher, a counselor, a police officer, or a pilot.

Tips for the way you learn:

Study alone in a comfortable yet quiet environment.
Set goals for yourself, and monitor your progress regularly.
Reflect on what you have learned, and think through new material.
Create a connection between new material and subjects you already know, and gain understanding by finding their similarities.

What a surprise! :laugh: Not sure how accurate this test actually is, but the one that came out on top seems a reasonable bet...

You Are a Musical Learner

Your mantra: That sounds good to me!

You probably sing to yourself while walking down the street. Keep it up! Musical intelligence is associated with enjoying music, singing (vocalists), making music (composers), and playing an instrument (instrumentalists). You are sensitive to sounds and the emotions music conveys. You have a unique ability to know when something is off key.

Tips for the way you learn:

Listen to music while you study to connect its patterns and sounds with the subject you are studying. Replay the same song just before a test.
Create a rhyme, song, or chant for material you would like to memorize.
Associate what you're learning with a song you like.
Use your ability to distinguish sounds as well as hear the beat, tone, or chord in a song by learning an instrument or mixing sound.

I'm so glad you did this V-Tog! I wondered if you'd get musical when I read about it - how you talk about singing and musical instruments

I think this would actually be a great help if it was in the IP for masters to choose an apprentice...

You Are an Interpersonal Learner

Your mantra: I understand what you mean.

Interpersonal learners thrive on social interaction. Friends often ask you for advice because you are understanding and in tune with the people around you and their motives, emotions, perspectives, and moods.

Your ability to manage relationships helps you understand situations and take a leadership role when necessary. You enjoy teaching and sharing your thoughts.

Careers that require insight and the ability to read what someone else is thinking or feeling -- such as teaching, psychology, or sales -- would be a great match for those with interpersonal intelligence.

Tips for the way you learn:

Give and receive feedback.
Talk out problems.
Work on large-group projects so you can use your social abilities to divide up tasks and understand all aspects of the project.
Be a part of active learning through mentoring, tutoring, or an apprenticeship. This activity will reinforce your own knowledge or abilities.

Yea not bad, but I think it under represented Bodily-Kinesthetic for some reason... maybe I need to 'dance' more :S

I suppose this makes sense; I do like to help people.

You Are a Naturalistic Learner
Your mantra: Let's investigate the natural world.

Naturalistic learners often understand the patterns of living things, and they apply scientific reasoning to the world. You recognize (and can classify) different types of plants or animals. You also empathize with animals. Some well-known careers for those with naturalistic intelligence are farmer, naturalist, animal behaviorist, and scientist.

Tips for the way you learn:
Observe and record data.
Create a "living system" for the material you are trying to learn. Imagine the new material as an ecosystem or a pattern for you to figure out.
Write about nature, daily life, or people as a topic so you become engaged in your assignment.

You Are a Logical-Mathematical Learner
Your mantra: Why? Well, because it's logical.


Logical-mathematical intelligence is often what we refer to when we call someone -- such as a mathematician or an engineer -- smart. You possess the ability to understand complex problems, both logical and mathematical. This intelligence asks questions, finds solutions, and reflects on the problem-solving process.


Tips for the way you learn:
Think about what you are trying to learn as a puzzle or a formula.
Ask questions and allow yourself to experiment with your own hypotheses to find solutions or new answers.
Concentrate on symbols, designs, and words to bridge mathematical and verbal logic.
Create an outline to understand your subject step by step. Doing so will allow you to stay organized and track what you're learning in a logical sequence.


N.B. This quiz probably asked the wrong kind of questions for someone like me. Hence why my scores are so low

You Are a Verbal-Linguistic Learner
Your mantra: Tell me in words -- written or spoken -- and I will understand.



Verbal-linguistic intelligence (along with logical-mathematical intelligence) is often associated with doing well in school. You have the ability to use words effectively for reading, writing, listening, and speaking. The poet has been described as the epitome of verbal-linguistic intelligence.



Tips for the way you learn:
Use words to explain complicated subjects.
Ask questions.
Engage in the Socratic method, digesting information through a question-and-answer exchange.
Hone your native ability to tell a story.

It seems kind of unbalanced, I posted my two highest.
