Our VAK profiling service is a powerful tool for understanding your unique learning style. We recognize that everyone learns differently, and that’s what makes each of us unique. Our assessments help you discover whether you’re primarily a visual, auditory, or kinesthetic learner. By identifying your dominant learning style, you gain valuable insights into how you absorb and process information most effectively.
What is VAK?
The VAK Learning Styles Model was developed by psychologists in the 1920s to classify the most common ways that people learn. According to the model, most of us prefer to learn in one of three ways: visual, auditory or kinesthetic (although, in practice, we generally “mix and match” these three styles).
Visual: a visually-dominant learner absorbs and retains information better when it is presented in, for example, pictures, diagrams and charts.
Auditory: an auditory-dominant learner prefers listening to what is being presented. He or she responds best to voices, for example, in a lecture or group discussion. Hearing his own voice repeating something back to a tutor or trainer is also helpful.
Kinesthetic: a kinesthetic-dominant learner prefers a physical experience. She likes a “hands-on” approach and responds well to being able to touch or feel an object or learning prop.
In essence, VAK learning styles are simply different ways of perceiving information, depending on an individual’s preferences for learning.
