Not bad, lower than what I’d have expected, which gives some merit to the test’s usefullness. I would have appreciated an analysis on what specific areas need improvement.

Yep, sounds reasonably accurate. I think these things are pointless; answering the test questions is the same thing as guessing what VARK scores you’ll get. Shrug.

A little bit more interesting. But these tests put you in an artificial world; life isn’t yes or no, it’s an anologue system of greyness. The results are next to useless.
I don’t personally find much joy in filling out long forms, I think the form would be most efficient if kept as succinct as possible. i.e. Does nationality really matter? I don’t see this greatly effecting teaching methods. Similarly the “languages” question; as long as the student is reasonably literate and fluent in English, I see no problem.
Perhaps some common examples on the more ambiguous questions could help; “Do you know your preferred learning style?” could prove open to interpretation. Also, “What are your desired outcomes…” seems a trifle unnecessary to me.
The second page is good; communication method and previous negotiations are good things to have a record of.
Well. We have blog. Brace yourselves, this will not be pleasant.
