A learning style is a way that a person approaches learning. If you know your child’s learning style, you can help him learn more effectively. There are three basic styles: visual, auditory, and tactile/kinesthetic. If you understand your child’s learning style, you will be able to teach him, help with his homework, and explain your child to his teacher in a more effective way. You don’t need to take your child to a psychologist to have a young child’s learning style assessment done; it can be easy to determine your child’s learning style by simple observation and answering a few questions.
