V is very low when looking at test scores. But she can learn! Because English is a second language for her it helps her to hear a passage and then repeat back what she wants to record or what she thinks is important. She is definitely an auditory learner. I wonder how much her scores on tests reflect her ESL aspect or her actual academic ability. I know she has learned something when I work with her the next day and she can recall the facts and statements she wanted recorded the day before. This ability to recall will be very useful in college. How as a teacher can I help her with the other ways to learning though. There is still visual, kinesthetic, and oral learning. As a teacher should I still help her improve her skills in those ways of learning?
