Hello, I am a multimodal learner. I like to explore different strategies while learning, so I think I use all the VARK methods. I’m a practical person. I mostly like to demonstrate things and view them practically, but it also depends on the situation and its demands. For example, if I’m doing math, i would like to practice and learn, but if it’s an essay or something else, I would like a visual aid.

I am a multimodal learner. It’s very effective when it comes to my studies. Writing, watching videos, and doing practical work improved my marks.
Brenda said:
Hello!
I am a Multimodal learner, I learn differently, and it also helps me find strategies in each different way to learn. I learned more about myself with VARK preference.
Bridgette S said:
I am also a multimodal learner, and I love to learn in a detailed, sensing, visual fashion. It helps, it works, and it is ME!
Santa said:
I am a Multimodal learner. I feel my results are head on and that it shows where my strengths are which are writing and kinesthetic. I feel I’m more into this element when it comes to essays, brainstorming, and even being present for activities and better learning.

I am a Multimodal learner, and I feel that the results were pretty accurate, but I feel like I am more hands on which makes me Kinesthetic, but I will definitely use this again.

WAYS OF STUDYING (that help me)
I’m a multimodal learner. I mostly learn and keep things in my head by taking notes of the subjects and adding diagrams and enumerations and many other visual helpers. Keeping my notes dynamic helps me concentrate. Another way I remember things is by answering questions on the subject right after taking notes of it. I also mostly learn by myself that way and I go really fast (so I can do my homework In class) but I also like to ask questions and have a solid proof that I understand the subject. I also study for exams that way. Hope this helps people trying to find a way to study!

Hello! I am a multimodal learner. This is true. I do enjoy learning in various forms. This experience & method helped me understand that more. It also helped me to learn that each way of learning has more to it than the obvious. I liked how the V.A.R.K. method went in to detail & elaborated on each form of learning.
Draigon said:
I was not surprised to learn that I’m Multimodal (all of the learning types; VARK), but I was most definitely surprised to see it all in written form — the methods of learning that apply to me the most and the ones I use most often. I think that I’m either a strange case or a common one with no in-between! I think my favorite method of learning is a combination of all of the methods so that I can listen, visualize, read, and then practice what I’ve learned with my own two hands. This quiz has definitely been incredibly insightful for me and I’m eager to learn more.
Jaskarm said:
The V.A.R.K method makes sense .Being tagged as a multimodal learner is great!!
That being said, I think I lean more towards kinesthetic learning.
Rashmeet kaur said:
Hi there! I identify as a multimodal learner, and that’s definitely accurate. I truly appreciate acquiring knowledge through different methods. This experience and approach deepened my understanding of that concept. It also revealed to me that each learning style encompasses more than what is immediately apparent. I appreciated how the V.A.R.K. method provided detailed explanations and insights into each type of learning.
Taline said:
I found out I am a multimodal learner. But I have higher points in kinesthetic which makes sense because I tend to understand more when I do something instead of passively listening. However, I use a combination of all strategies to understand a concept better.
Kaylan Amacker said:
The V.A.R.K method explains me very well. You don’t have to ask me. Just read the results. Overall, I like it. It gives you the motivation to work or improve learning skills. Sometimes we get lacks or not motivated but when we see our test score, we be like “Oh. O. Oohhh. I really need to put in the work so I can get the next big score.” So, the results should wake everybody up. Either you are going to improve or you’re going to continue your journey.
Morgan said:
I’m a multimodal learner. Writing down concepts helps me remember what I’m reading but I feel like I most benefit from using hand on techniques. I like reading about what has to be done and then trying it myself. I do find that some videos that show more diagrams that are explained also help me better understand concepts.
Nathan said:
Interesting approach. I feel like different types of learning simply require different learning styles. The stuff I’m doing is highly conceptual, and usually talking ideas out and engaging in a lengthy exchange of ideas – usually using some kind of applied illustrations, metaphors, etc – will do the trick. My preferred way is that – so, visual and auditory – but if I’m learning how to do something, I want to be more multimodal. If I’m trying to do something in Photoshop, I’ll watch a video and follow along kinesthetically. If I want to understand some sophisticated theory, I’d rather hear and discuss the ideas. Some of these kind of seem to be mixing apples and oranges to sum you up, which might be why I ended up “multimodal.” Maybe I’m wrong, but who wants to learn how to use a program without actually using it in the process? The very idea seems strange – but hey, nothing wrong with different strokes.
Nkosenhle said:
I am a kinesthetic learner. It’s all about practise for me, trying no matter how I fail, communicating with my friends about my failure in order to get comfort and strength. I talk to others while learning which helps my memory. The VARK method is useful because it made me realise that am not just a kinesthetic learner, I am also a visual and realistic which I use to study my exams and all tests.
Herjus said:
Interesting results. I was feeling quiz was horrible because I had to tick off all 4 so many times. Thinking, isn’t more information better.
Not sure about the special case questions, like if I need more information from a doctor I don’t need a 3D illustration “will I die” is enough. Or if you’re having trouble assembling furniture, but didn’t read the instructions. And the board game question; I prefer asking experts to save time, but in board games everyone claims to be an expert at the rules – read the law page!
Heather Lander said:
Many people with a “VARK” preference feel the need to process new information in all of the modalities before they really feel they “get it”, while others have the flexibility to just choose one modality according to the circumstances. If you think about some learning situations you’ve been in, you’ll know which is the situation for you.
Dana said:
Me too!!!! I was like oh my gosh I tried so hard to narrow them down but I use them all!!!
Erica M McMasters said:
Another faithful multimodal learner here. I find I learn best when the information is spoken, illustrated, with some hands-on experience, and finally I have to write down what I’ve learned.
DeeDee said:
I am a multimodal learner. I love to learn new things and in different ways as I am more of a hands-on person but I love to use other methods while learning.
Emma said:
I got multimodal learner too, I love being hands-on and can adapt to other forms of learning, I have strengths in physical movement and with visual learning.
Luani said:
I am also a multimodal learner. I am almost even with all four and don’t have a particular preference. Honestly, it depends on the situation, and sometimes on my mood. For example, I can learn math just by watching or doing it. Hearing alone doesn’t always help, but I can combine all three or just one depending on how I process the information.
Lillian said:
I am a multimodal learner. I believe that these preferences and methods were somewhat helpful, though I find that I do not need an evaluation to know that I need multiple methods to learn.

I love this, it gives you insight on what you need to do to study. Options of choices to help you learn.
Brina Williams said:
I’m a multimodal learner. Before my lecture I pre-read. During lectures I pay attention to key concepts and different terms that I need to know. Right after lecture I read through my notes again and identify any areas that I’m unsure about. Then I go to youtube and look up those things, looking for someone reading about it or explaining it to me so I can get a better understanding of the concept.
Jose said:
I am a multimodal learner. I love to watch, listen, and physically do what I need to do in order to get something done or to learn something new.
Destiney said:
I am a multimodal learner. I feel like I use all of these methods in some way with my learning. I find the V. A. R. K method is very useful and I will continue to use it throughout my college career. Probably the rest of my life as well.
