VAK Learning Styles Questionnaire

This document contains a learning styles questionnaire to help determine a learner's preferred learning style. It consists of 36 statements to which the learner responds "yes" or "no". The learner then counts the number of "yes" responses for each category of learning style: visual, auditory, or kinesthetic. Whichever category has the highest number of responses indicates the learner's preferred learning style. Plotting the totals on a bar chart provides a visual representation of the learner's learning style strengths. Understanding one's preferred learning style can help make learning more effective and enjoyable.
