Today it's all about learning. How do I learn better? What ear, eye, hand or leg is dominant? If I answer these questions I can find out what profile I am. My profile is LL. This means that I can get distracted easily, I need activities to keep up in the lesson and I need some quiet time when I'm stressing out.
Someone with a LL profile is a kinesthetic learner, that means that it helps for him/her to learn when moving or doing activities. This is something that I really recognize in myself.
I learn best when I am doing activities or I can actually touch/feel/do it myself. When I can relax when doing my homework or class work I don't get distracted easily and I get it done faster. I also learn faster when I'm having fun, so sometimes I do my homework with friends so we can discuss what we have to accomplish and what is right and wrong.
I need to sit in an angle to the front of the class. This makes me more comfortable in my chair. This can help me learn because I’m comfortable and if I have enough space to move I can concentrate better. For me it doesn't matter if I sit at the front or the back of the class, either is good.
The strategies that help me in my learning are to do exercises before a test, for example stretching my hands. During a test, I like to stretch my legs a bit to keep myself going. When learning about I new subject, I like to experience the story myself in a way so I can imagine it better. Or drawing on the board as an example is also a way to help me imagine the situation.
I would like teachers to know that I like music for assignments like writing blogs and such. I also can get distracted easily when I hear zippers and pencils falling on the table. When I hear something like that I always look up to see what happened, and it makes it harder for me to carry on with what I was doing.
I hope this was an interesting blog for you to read. Good luck with finding your learning profile!
