INTERESTING FACT
Dr. Howard Gardner of Harvard University proposed that there are several types of intelligence: naturalist, logical, mathematical, musical, interpersonal, spatial or linguistic (many theories include eight or even nine types). The type of intelligence differs in everyone and is largely a natural phenomenon. Naturalists can easily find the difference between natural things like clouds, animals, plants, etc. Whereas mathematically intelligent people are quick at calculations, propositions and hypotheses. Musically intelligent persons are able to discern rhythm, tone or pitch and can identify sounds which a normal human being might easily miss. Those with spatial intelligence have a unique quality of thinking in pictures. On the other hand linguistically intelligent ones use words for imaginative activities.

I think the best bang for your education buck comes from imparting lessons with synergistic exercises.
And substances?
This is because scientists actually say a lot more than just what is written at the top of this page. If you read their papers, you will find that while you may have known the outcome, you had no idea of how it actually happened. That is the essence of science. For exaple, it is obvious that you get sunburn if you stay in the sun for too long, but without scientists figuring out why this happens, we wouldn't have suncream or know much about skin cancer. So while you may know that we are intelligent in different ways, I'm sure the details are just a little bit more complex than that; and touch on more scientific areas than mere common sense.
