My Learning Style After examining the Kolb learning styles, I have decided that the style best suited for me is a cross between Easygoing and Divergent. The Kolb online learning inventory, which I participated in, gave me an almost equal score in both areas. It was surprising how accurately these styles describe how I learn. The description associated with these styles was exactly how I perceived myself. Easygoing individuals are individuals whose strength lies in pursuing projects and experiments and engaging in new experiences. They are risk-takers and excel in situations that require quick decisions and adaptations. In situations where a theory or plan doesn't fit the facts, they tend to discard it and try something else. They often solve problems instinctively by trial and error, relying heavily on other people for information. They are easygoing with people but are sometimes perceived as impatient. Their educational background is often in practical fields such as business. They prefer jobs such as teaching, marketing or sales.
