Week Three: Identify you Learning Style




Working at Black Forest Bakery, I've learned that in the culinary profession you should pay careful attention because there is little room to mess up. If you screw up, you have to start over, and that would be wasting supplies. The people I work with are really welcoming, although, at five in the morning, most of us are a little grumpy. The most positive experience I've had was when I mixed peanut-butter cookies and baked them by myself. Of course they came out perfectly, and customers were told that i was the baker that day. The only negative experience I've had were burning a batch of cheese wheels. As I said earlier, I had to start completely over, and I wasted a lot of dough. I look forward to working at the bakery during the summer and being able to learn how to decorate cakes and cupcakes. My learning style could greatly benefit me in this career because as a visual learner I can learn how to make pastries by seeing what's going on rather thanjust following oral instructions. I also get to read recipes which work well with my learning style.
