Candidate X has scores of V=10, A=2, R=2, and K=2. Candidate Y has scores of V=10, A=7, R=8, and K= 8. The two candidates should be using only Visual strategies for their learning.

Our VARK modal preferences are mostly determined genetically.

People have preferences for learning in the same way they have preferences for food, cars, and friends.

People with a very strong single preference (say Kinesthetic) should use only that preference to learn.

Learners should choose to use VARK’s Helpsheet strategies based on what their VARK learning preference is..

You can find out all about your learning style by filling in the VARK Questionnaire.

Older people tend to prefer VARK's Read/write strategies more than younger people.

VARK uses many different combinations of its four modes to describe people's preferences. The most common combination is where all four modes are almost equally preferred.

From VARK's database, a majority of people have Read/Write included in their preference.

Most learners have multimodal preferences and Kinesthetic is the most common single VARK preference.

According to VARK's definitions, Kinesthetic is mainly about learning by doing.

Learners with a single preference for Kinesthetic strategies benefit from moving around when they are learning.

Different cultures have different proportions for their VARK preferences for learning.

VARK can be used for free if you are employed in an educational institution working with learners.

The most important contributor to learning is the match between the learner's preferences and the teachers' or trainers' preferences for learning.

So that all learners in a group understand a new concept, a teacher (or trainer) should use all of VARK's four modes (Visual, Aural, Read/write and Kinesthetic.)

Watching YouTube videos is really helpful for learners with a Visual VARK Preference.

Women are more inclined to have Aural preferences than men.

VARK uses different algorithms for research and for its online questionnaire.

Learners cannot effectively learn if material is presented in a mode that they don't prefer.

The VARK Questionnaire should only be used with people over the age of 12.

The four scores that come from using the VARK Questionnaire are all that are needed to define my preferences.

A person's VARK preference for learning will be the same as his/her VARK preference for teaching or training.
