Chapter 6: Using Your Learning Style
If you are a visual learner, be sure that you look at all study materials. Use charts, maps, notes,
videos, and pictures. Practice visualizing or picturing words and concepts in your head. Write out
important things for frequent and quick visual review.
If you are an auditory learner, you may wish to use audio. Listen and take notes, and review
your notes often. Adjust yourself and your computer so you can hear well. After you have read
something, summarize it and recite it aloud. Talk to other students about course material.
If you are a tactile or hands-on learner, you trace words as you see them. Facts that must be
learned should be written several times. Keep a supply of scratch paper on hand for this purpose.
Make study sheets. Associate class material with real-world things or occurrences. Practice what
you are learning by doing it.
