We all learn to read and do math using oral, visual, and kinesthetic methods. Some of us favor one method over another, and for the most part group teaching depends heavily on oral/aural and visual methods. Hence, pupils who need kinesthetic instruction don't get enough of it - they don't get the time, supervision, and emphasis they truly need. Very very few individuals who are basically kinesthetic learners choose teaching as a profession at the elementary school level. Most teachers choose teaching because they did learn easily how to read as oral & visual learners, and they sorely need a recipe book to guide them in the appropriate use of kinesthetic teaching methods. They need a recipe book that teaches the teacher how to teach the kinesthetic learner step-by-careful-step! | A Recipe Book for Tutors by Cynthia Parsons, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
