  - Here I learned the main characteristics of a learner, so I can have a better idea of how am I going to teach or what strategies am I going to use with a person according to his/her learning style, and age
- I really liked the topic ralated to learners characteristics because with it I got an idea of how can I do it well as a teacher,. if I was a teacher I would use all these things so I can teach the most to my students.
