Human beings have various different kinds of intellectual strengths. These strengths are very important in how kids learn. An education that treats everybody the same way is actually a very unfair education. Startlingly, I learned that a typical American classroom was really only set up to meet the learning style needs of 20% of the class. That meant that 80% of a typical classroom of students were either falling between the cracks or forced to make their own accommodations.
