I think it is important as an educator to become practiced at using your observation skills in combination with your knowledge of the various types of learning preferences and intelligences, to provide a variety of instructional strategies in order to more effectively reach and teach your students. I think the first, most important step is to discover and better understand your own preferences/intelligences, if you haven't already, in order to have a better appreciation for how being able to effectively use strategies attuned to your strengths, benefits your ability to learn.
