Embracing Different Learning Styles in Homeschooling

The idea of different learning styles started to gain popularity in the mid-70's. Since then, the notion has influenced the way education and learning is perceived. Just like there are different teaching methods, many individuals also believe there are different ways to learn and understand new information.

Despite facing many challenges, many parents started looking into the different ways of learning and assessing their child's preferred learning method.

How do Children Learn?

Every child has different learning preferences. Some prefer to learn by seeing or hearing, others by doing, some by reading, and others by asking questions. One thing all students have in common is that they all learn best when they incorporate items and topics that interest them into their studies.

While your child may fit more than one learning style, you may notice patterns in their learning preferences. For example, a visual learner may also be a very social and verbal learner who prefers to learn especially difficult topics using their primary communication skills.

Understanding how your child learns is one of the best ways to gain the most from their homeschool experience and choose the best curriculum for your family. As new homeschoolers get started, we recommend going through what's called the deschooling process, a transitional period that allows you and your child to hit the 'reset' button and let go of any preconceived notions of what learning should look like. Additionally, you can take this time to understand your child's learning style.
