Learning styles

Did you know that there are 293 different combinations of pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters, 50-cent pieces, and dollar coins that could be used to make change for $1.00?

Just as varied combinations of coins add up to $1.00, there are various methods people may use for learning. Different people will have distinct preferences for learning methods.

And, as no combination of coins is bad (unless you don’t care for the weight of 100 pennies in your pocket 😊), no Learning Style is better or worse than any other, just different. Knowing and understanding your learning style can help you learn in the most effective way. And, if you are a parent, knowing and understanding your child’s learning style can help you assist your child in learning more effectively.

This workshop will:

  • Introduce different learning styles,
  • Identify some typical characteristics of persons with each learning style.
  • Suggest approaches to successfully help people with a specific preferred learning style to learn more effectively.


Learning Styles

We all have our own ways of doing things. This includes everything from the most mundane, repetitious, everyday tasks to things we only do occasionally. How we study and learn new things is no different. In this presentation, we will look at different learning styles and how we can best take advantage of them for ourselves and any children in our lives.

Frequently asked questions

Since this is about Learning Styles, will my children be permitted to attend?

Not recommended. The workshop is designed for adults to be able to assist their children and for the adults’ own self-edification and education. It is up to the parent to determine how much of the course content to share with their child. Handouts of the material covered will be provided.

The workshop is to help adults assist their children in their studies. Should both parents attend?

Yes. It is highly recommended that both parents attend. To encourage both parents to attend, I am offering a number of two-for-the price of one (2 for 1) registrations.

Is this only for parents? What about grandparents or other family members?

Grandparents and others will also learn from this and may, if the parent wishes, be able to support the parents in assisting their children. And grandparents and other family members may learn for their own self-edification.

I don’t have any children. Will this workshop be of any value to me? Why would I wish to attend?

Yes. This workshop can be of value to everyone who is interested in continuing their education, even if only for self-edification and personal enrichment. Individuals, or couples, without children are welcome to attend. They may learn more about their strengths. And they may just enjoy the event.

Will this be simply another lecture where we sit and listen to someone drone on and on?

No. I have always found lectures where the presenter drones on and on to be very boring and difficult to stay focused and to pay attention. So, I attempt to avoid doing the same thing. I make my workshops and presentations as interactive as possible and encourage attendee questions and participation

You say the workshop is interactive. What do you mean by that?

I encourage questions and discussion with the presenter and other attendees, as long as we remain on topic and keep aware of the constraints of the time available. Additionally, I may ask questions of the attendees to determine if anything needs further explanation.

Will food and drink be available?

Yes. Refreshments will be provided. There will only be non- alcoholic beverages provided.

Is parking provided? Where can I park?

There is free parking behind the Lodge building. When turning into the Lodge driveway from 27 Mile Road, continue along the right (west) side of the building to the parking lot.

I’ve never been to a Masonic Lodge before. Will I be permitted to tour the building?

No. As with all Masonic lodges, and many other organizations, portions of the Lodge building are not open to the general public. Portions of this building are only available to Masons. It is requested that you honor those restrictions.
