Learning Styles

Why Learning Styles Matter

Everyone learns differently. What works for one child might not work for another child. When children aren’t taught in the way that they learn best, learning can become frustrating. Rather than developing a passion and love for learning, the child begins to resist school. That’s a situation we all want to avoid. That’s why at Bridgeway we believe in discovering your student’s learning style–visual, auditory, or kinesthetic (what we call watcher, listener, or doer)–early in their educational journey and then using curriculum that teaches to that style. Because when you teach to your child’s learning style more of their brain is engaged, the learning experience is deepened, and learning becomes more enjoyable and fun.
