According to Bhagavadgita there are five types of Yogas:

  1. Rāja Yoga
  2. Karma Yoga
  3. Jnana Yoga
  4. Bhakti Yoga
  5. Hatha Yoga

These various Yogas are the methods to realize the supreme spiritual oneness and cannot be separated and practiced, but the practitioner (Sādhaka) is known by the method of Yoga that is most dominant in their practice.

What are the four yogas of Hinduism and how do they contribute to spiritual growth and self-realization?

The four yogas of Hinduism are Bhakti (devotion), Jnana (knowledge), Karma (action), and Raja (meditation). Each yoga focuses on a different path to spiritual growth and self-realization. Bhakti yoga emphasizes love and devotion to a higher power, Jnana yoga focuses on knowledge and understanding of the self and the universe, Karma yoga emphasizes selfless actions and service to others, and Raja yoga focuses on meditation and self-discipline to achieve spiritual enlightenment. By practicing these yogas, individuals can develop different aspects of themselves and progress towards self-realization and spiritual growth.

What is jnana yoga?

Not totally sure about all it entails. Trying to learn all this myself; religion class can be rough. I know it is one of the four "paths" to god. The four "paths" is a comparison used when describing the four different types of "yogas," pursued in the Hindu religion, that will attain "liberation." Liberation being the goal of all these different yogas. Jnana is the path of knowledge. So in turn, through knowledge you make your way to liberation/god. Good luck my friend.
