Introduction
The pandemic situation that all of us are facing at the moment may change how you learn
but it will not hold back your education in any way. You will continue to gain knowledge and acquire
skills, perhaps in an unconventional method and environment, but you can still learn.
As a learner, you will get to see the significant connection between your learning style and
your study habits. You will also be more deeply aware of your study habits by answering a Study
Skills Questionnaire that will help you assess the level of your study skills. You know by now that
developing effective study habits is one great way of ensuring academic achievement.
Keep in Mind
There are seven (7) different types of learners and while most of you have a combination of
different learning styles, you can say that you have a preferred method of processing information.
Each learner has a dominant learning style.
Since you are presently learning from home and not attending face-to-face classes, it is
important for you to get acquainted with the different learning styles, strengthen your dominant or
preferred learning style, and cultivate good study habits connected to the said learning styles.
There are many types of learning styles. It would help if you can identify yours so you can be
mindful how you learn best.
• Visual is a learning style where students acquire knowledge when the lessons are presented in
pictures, images, directions, and diagrams. This is often called as spatial learning style.
• Auditory is a learning style where students learn best when audio, music or sounds are being
employed in the learning session.
• Kinesthetic is a learning style where students are keen on utilizing their sense of touch and
hands to learn well. Kinesthetic learners learn most when they move.
• Logical is a learning style where students use reasoning, logic, and systems as they gain skills
and information.
• Verbal is a learning style where students learn well through the use of words in writing and
speech.
• Social is a learning style where students are inclined to learn with other people or in groups.
Understanding the learning styles should not be confined in the four corners of the classroom.
By knowing which style is suited to which learner can surprisingly impact how lessons are
comprehended and how teaching is ascertained. The term learning style speaks to the understanding
that every student learns differently. Technically, an individual’s learning style refers to the
preferential way in which the student absorbs, processes, comprehends, and retains information.
Your learning style should fit or match your study habit so that you can continue to create an effective
learning environment for yourself, mainly since you will be learning from home for now. If you know
your preferred learning style, then you can be particular on the strategies to incorporate in your study
habits. However, bear in mind that learners possess multiple learning styles or a combination of
different learning styles. With this, there is no single type of learning strategy that you can use to
learn effectively because everyone has multiple learning styles.
Additionally, here are good study habits for students that you can use, especially at this
time of pandemic, to enhance your study habit practices.
