Taking into consideration that individuals have different learning styles, and that as an instructor it's important to provide multiple methods of learning. 

The importance of teaching to the various learning styles has been around for decades and is important today as it ever has been. Students are individuals with individual learning styles and instructors must adapt to them individually in order to capitalize on these distinct differences. 

mixing styles helps everyone including the instructor

By understanding the four categories of learning styles, I can ensure that my course material is diverse in delivery methods across the written, verbal, visual, and kinesthetic. 

learning styles are all different among students from young to older. build confidence in your students by uplifting and empowering their participation.

Every learner is different and unique with preferences, behaviors, interests, and attitudes. 

I’ve learned about the different learning styles and that it is important to create lessons that approaches each style for each student 

I learned that with the different learning styles, there are different approaches to studying and conveying information that can be more effective than others depending on which learning style preference the students have. 

Incorporate as many learning styles into group activities as possible

I completely agree with you. Recently, I have been listening to audio books and I find that I really enjoy it. The particular book I am listening to has the same author actually reading her own book, so it means so much more to me. It is as if, this author is jumping straight out of the book and into the the space that you are in. It totally helps to be immersed into the content of the book. 

Learning acquisition have been under research for 30 years to understand how individuals develop students’ individual learning styles. This greater knowledge will help instructors and students develop greater ability to learn and retain new information according to each individuals innate and preferred learning styles.  

I have learned that there are different teaching styles and they can be mixed to reach each individual. 

Most relevant, different approach to get diversify of views.

Ideally, learning styles, assumptions, classifications and conditions should intertwine with an instructor’s technique(s). For example, an instructor that is teaching a class in an auditory fashion might not get the message through to a student that learns and retains information best from visual instruction. The same could be said as this relates to emotions and problem solving. When combing these variables the instructor has to be a sort of a chameleon when disseminating a lesson plan among a variety of students with as many varying learning styles. 

Being able to be flexible in changing learning styles can change the feel and beat of the room there by keeping students engaged and interested in the subject matter and more retention of subject matter.

I see alot of benefit in this understanding of learning styles. I will try to use alot of these small changes to hopefully have a student benefit of better retention of subject matter  and a more at ease feeling with learning all content.

This is the first time i have seen where learning styles are identified.  This will help me see what a particular students needs to help them progress in their learning.

Various teaching styles can and should be implemented during a class. Take the different styles and integrate them for a more advanced approach to comprehension. 

Adapting to new ways of teaching can ensure 100% of your class stays involved you must create a climate where students feel empathy so they actually want to learn. 

Presenting a variety of learning styles allows students to discover their learning styles, helping them with future classes and study habits.
