Therefore, there are other ways for a child to acquire knowledge besides simply matching the learning style to the methods of instruction.
Language fluency and reading ability have a significant impact on learning. The abilities mentioned can either assist a child in learning or determine whether or not a child will learn. Both reading and language fluency are necessary skills (Brown, 2014). Without these two abilities, a child may struggle to learn even more complex things. Reading, for example, is ubiquitous. To correctly identify things, a child must read the time, signage, labels, books, and everything else around them. As a result, if a child does not know how to read well, the child will suffer because the child will be unable to process information. Language fluency, on the other hand, is essential too.
