Learning the students preferred learning style early on will help them be successful. Blending students with different learning styles in group activities could assist on peers assisting with eachother grasping concepts.
Knowing and understanding each learning style and incorporating each in your teaching can help reach each student. In also will help with my/your teaching abilities and helping the students learn the information needed.
It is important to identify what learning styles the students prefer. I think it would beneficial if there was a survey on the preferred learning styles of my students so I can cater to the student group as a whole.

Determining students learning styles in the first few classes gives you the information needed to select different learning approaches that you can use to deliver content. Student participation is necessary for the student's success. Students will need to removed from their comfort zones so they can learn how to learn in diverse ways, because many time learning content is delivered in the simplest way and may be weak on context, in other words the student may have to make something out of nothing or truly little. When students can adjust to the different modes of instruction student confidence increases, ultimately; giving the student a sense of “I Got This”.

This will help reach most if not all of my students stay engaged by switching styles.
I would like to know each students preferred learning style from the beginning of the class. I will include it durinng the initial class introduction.

So far I have learned the many different stratagies to better address the different styles. I have also come to realize that my learning style has changed or maybe one style has become more dominant over another. In the past i needed to see for myself however now I am quite comfortable with auditory and would jot down anything that I feel need more clarity.
The different learning styles are appropriate to reaching students in their learning ability to comprehend the material. I will be touching on all learning styles and incorporated the one that is more apt to reach the students.
Understanding of different learning styles can help you structure your teaching methods.
Not all students learn at the same pace or in the same way, some are listeners others visual or hands on. You have to be able to adjust as a instructor to meet all the different styles.
