Middle School is the first time in a student’s academic career that a preferred learning style becomes salient and begins to impact study habits, comprehension and retention.
As we progress through our academic careers, learning styles become second nature. Students will often adapt their study habits without even realizing what learning style they prefer, and why they’ve chosen to study they way they have. However, for a young student, this is not always so obvious at first. If you can identify your child’s learning style, you can help them get ahead by framing homework and study skills in a way that makes sense for him or her.
