Every child is different from one another, including the way they learn. Some children are visual learners, preferring pictures and spatial understanding. Others are aural learners who prefer using sound and music. Some children are verbal learners who prefer using words, both speech and writing. Others are physical (kinesthetic) learners who prefer to learn by using their body, hands, and sense of touch.
In today’s episode, I’m chatting with Punam Desormes, a Speech-Language Pathologist with over 15 years of experience and a faculty clinical instructor in the School of Communication Sciences and Disorders at the University of Central Florida. Her experience includes working in a private multidisciplinary clinic, a special needs school for autism, and private practice.
Today, Punam is breaking down the different ways children learn and explaining what we (parents) need to know and look for when it comes to our children’s learning. Understanding how our children learn can help us create more effective learning activities to support their mental growth. Punam has worked with many families and shares her expert knowledge with us.
Here are some links that Punman mentioned during our episode. We hope these help!
