VAK Learning Styles


I just completed a VAK learning style self-assessment and figured I would share the results on my blog. To start, VAK represents the three learning styles assessed in the questionnaire…(V) visual, (A) auditory, and (K) kinaesthetic.

After answering the thirty questions, I totaled up my answers and had the following results. I selected 13 visual responses, 7 auditory responses, and 10 kinaesthetic responses.  Based on these results, I have a preference towards a visual learning style. However, there was only a six point spread between my lowest score of 7 for auditory response and a three point spread between my secondary learning style of kinaesthetic. I tend to agree that I can learn a lot through visual observation; however, I also learn a many processes by jumping in and doing them, so it makes sense that I also selected a lot of kinaesthetic responses as well.  I also find that I can learn well from listening to someone explain a process, but would prefer to learn by either watching or doing. At the end of the day though, I feel that I am able to learn using any of three methods discussed in the VAK self-assessment, but the results show I have a preference to either visual or kinaesthetic learning.
