The Learning Styles

If you were one of those people who struggled through school, you may have felt like you weren’t smart enough and that you’d never be able to catch up to your fellow classmates.

Sadly, it happens all too frequently with students right through high school, college and beyond.

However, if you’ve ever felt this way, then it’s very possible that you weren’t being taught according to your learning style.

Luckily, you can totally avoid this problem with independent language learning. As an independent language learner, you can tailor your instruction in a way that best suits you.

M.A. Halina Ostańkowicz-Bazan also gives lectures in English on Polish History and Culture for students from all over the world. She has been looking for some inspiration and learning how to teach using new technologies, since 2010.  WizIQ fascinated her since she found the Platform.

In addition to this, Halina is extremely interested in Cultural Diversity. Furthermore, she believes that teaching language using songs is a powerful and enjoyable way of improving communication skills. Her educational approach recommends singing a language, meaning that we don’t speak the language, but we sing it.

Halina is a long-life learner, so she has been working on improving her teaching/learning skills for a very long time.

Additionally, she is for blended learning as well as flipping classroom techniques. She also finds Virtual Classes tremendously exciting and challenging, as they make attendees feel like having a real meeting and discussion. In Halina’s view, Visual quality and non-verbal communication tools, you can share with attendees are particularly significant. Moreover, an opportunity to communicate online with people from around the world is an overwhelming experience as well as an excellent chance to connect for teaching and learning. An occasion to meet and connect with people from the entire Globe is one of the reasons she appreciates online communication, very much.
