INTRODUCTION
The most important focus of this assignment report is to identify and reflect on the
experiences learning obtained while preparing for achieving personal, academic and
professional success in university. With the help of this assessment, different aspects of
evidence will be considered for demonstrating different areas explored while preparing
for success at University. This report will explain various discussions that were
demonstrated during the preparation of success at University with the help of 12 points.
Evidence 1: VARK Learning Model

Summary
The VARK Learning model can be explained as a learning model that allows an
individual to improve and enhance the realities of studying with the help of different tools
and techniques. VARK is an abbreviation for visual, auditory, reading/writing and
kinaesthetic abilities of an individual to grab information, knowledge, and learning
around them (Mirza and Khurshid, 2020). These are mainly the embedded software in
the human body and brain that helps them to incorporate and gain new learning,
knowledge and skills. According to the questionnaire I have obtained the result as a
1

multimodal learner in kinaesthetic learning. Those who are classified as the multi-modal
learners have the ability to learn new things by different means which could be helpful in
gaining success at University.
Evidence 2: Reflection on my experience of learning
Throughout my years of academic practice, I have exercised on enhancing my
knowledge and skills and expanding my abilities to the greatest extent since the starting
so that I could achieve greater performance. Accuracy and diligence can be considered
as the most important factors for growth and success within the academics / University
(Semple, 2018). Since my childhood my parents have always focused on making me
habitual to studies and focused on my everyday learning, due to which I have developed
a priority for daily studies. Through the experience of learning I had understood that, as
students we need to develop knowledge and skills to get success which is a very
important aspect in the university. I would recommend that the students do not need to
study every day for lengthened hours. It is integral to devote a small part of a day to
focus on studying seriously to achieve desired results. As a student, I have identified
that it is integral to modify the assignments and works that I have already done. I have
developed this habit of revising and reviewing the completed chapters that was helpful
in preparing for the examinations by eliminating unnecessary pressure and wastage of
time.
Evidence 3: Reflection on my experience of learning
Cornell's method of taking notes is a highly effective technique for evaluating and
implementing different types of learning and note taking, consisting of recording videos
and auditory learning. I have understood that it is very important to analyse the best
style of learning through not taking so that performance can be improved. The note
taking is a very helpful activity that can help to organise and summarise the concepts in
organised formats so that learning can become easier (McGann, 2019). Note taking
helps the students to wisely write down the lessons and study materials in the form of
