Vark styles and Myers Briggs types

1. Write a post to your blog of ~500-750 words. In this post, use both the Myers Briggs types and the VARK styles to try and characterize the personality type and learning styles preferred by the professors with whom you are doing the best and the worst this semester. Use your analysis to try and gain insight into what it is about the professors in question which allow you to learn from them (or not). Be specific, what kinds of learning styles do these professors favor in their teaching? What does the presentation of their material tell you about their Myers Briggs personality type?


According to the Vark styles and Myers Briggs types, my learning style is aural, meaning that I learn better discussing the topic with other people, listening one thing many times and going thru the material over and over again. My other learning style is the kinesthetic which is based on going to field trips, feeling real examples of abstract concepts, applying information, viewing exhibits, samples and photos of the material helps a lot, labs are also very helpful, using all my senses and doing things to retain the information. Personally I would like to have the read/write learning style, I just think this style is more common in the college experience and it would be easier to learn and put in practice everything I learn in my classes.
This semester, my second one, I am taking four classes, they all are different and I think all four professors are very different learning wise. I am taking English 111, SDV 100, Architecture: Materials and Methods of Construction II , and Math 04. I think I am doing good in my math class, my teacher uses very detail examples and most of the homework is online where I can go and see other examples of certain exercises, it also brakes down the exercises step by step so I can have a better view to what I have to do and what process I have to use, I like the online learning method because it gives me many options and I have all the time I need to get my homework done. Miss K, my math professor is very patient and this fact helps me get the information I need easily. In my perspective I think that miss k’s learning style is visual because she draws on the board every single example or word problem to explain the material.
I think I am doing well in my English class; the only thing that is giving me some kind of problems is my English teacher teaching style, which is obviously a read/write style. His homework and assignments are all writing and reading, just the instructions to do the homework are extremely long. This is an English class, it is going to be all about writing and reading which can help me with my skills and progress in English but for me is already hard enough since my first language is not English but all this practice is great for my process of learning, I know I can only get better. It is hard sometimes just to stay focus when I am writing an essay of 500 words or 750 words, I lose my thoughts and do not remember what I was writing about or the idea I had. For this kind of problem my teacher is teaching us how to become a better writer, some techniques we could use like brainstorming and mapping my ideas, these are some of the strategies to focus and get better results in our papers, classes, college and life itself.
