Depends on what I'm reading. The books I enjoy probably have a lot less descriptive info than what many others enjoy. Even with fiction, I'm more interested in how characters interact and think, and in how a story unfolds, than in imagining settings and such. I read heavily as a child and always tested above-level. I learned during a test for a high school program that I'm a self-taught speed reader.

I think if you're going to teach, you should be careful how your theories might limit your ability to teach. I've done some teaching, and I've observed that there's no one approach. With a class full of people, I try to engage as much as possible in a group, but note that some people just learn differently. With them, it's important to find alternatives, or you might lose them.
