Tick the statements which are usually true for you. Remember there are no right or wrong answers.
Circle the numbers you ticked:
Visual	 Auditory	 Kinaesthetic emotional	 Kinaesthetic motoric
3, 6, 9, 15, 18, 21, 28, 29	 1, 7, 10, 14, 17, 23, 25, 30	 2, 5, 11, 16, 20, 22, 26, 32	 4, 8, 12, 13, 19, 24, 27, 31
Your preference profile
Put the number of circles in the boxes:
Visual 	 Auditory 	 Kinaesthetic emotional (KE)	 Kinaesthetic motoric (KM)
Now fill in this grid demonstrating your preference profile.
Colour in the number of fields – the number of sentences you circled above – to better visualise your profile.
Discussion points:
c	 Did you tick more answers for one type than another, or did
you tick the same number for several types?
c	 Do you agree with the answers?
c	 How did you judge yourself before doing this survey? Was it
the same or different?
Points to remember:
The actual number in each of the modalities is not important
– it is the relation between the points that indicates learning
style. Therefore, a significantly higher number in one area will
indicate strength in that area, as compared to another area
with a lower number of points.
