Understanding Your Learners

Is it important to understand your learners? Learners are individuals and bring their own needs and experience to the learning environment. To be an effective teacher, it is necessary to appreciate the importance this knowledge plays in creating a successful learning experience for the student. How can we understand our learners?

Learning Styles

A student's individual learner characteristics will determine the way they respond to both formal and informal learning environments. By understanding learning styles, you can develop techniques and tools which cover the various learning styles of your students.

Access information and tools on learning styles at the VARK

 

Personality Type

Appreciation and knowledge of personality types is another way teachers can prepare for, manage and understand learners. Learning about personality types can be a useful teaching tool. The International Teacher Training Academy provides professional development opportunities for Myers-Briggs training with certified MBTI trainers.

Inclusive Teaching

Get to know your students, one of the most effective ways to understand and engage students is to be interested in them. The media, national leaders and the education community are currently very focused on what makes a great teacher.

Read the comments of individuals who share their personal memories of the qualities they remember about their teachers that made their learning experience special under the "Teacher Testimonials" heading on this page.
