The beginning of the school year is a great time to assess your learning style.  (Or your child’s learning style.)  Knowing the best way you learn can help you create an environment in which you can be successful.  Not everyone does their best sitting in silence at a desk or table.  Some children might need to move around as they study and others may need the interaction of another student to do their best. At edutopia.org  click on the link to Learning Style Quiz.   It will take less than 5 minutes to answer the 24 questions and I think you will find it helpful.  After the quiz you can read a description of each learning style as well as tips for implementing your style with your studying.  Check it out.
