learning stylesScience
• Learn through listening.• Like to read aloud and often like to talk to themselves or create
musical jingles to help them learn new materials.• Like to talk through a problem.• Remember by talking out loud and they like to have things
explained orally rather than through written instructions.
Auditory Learners...
• Learn through seeing.• Like written instructions and prefer to take detailed notes as
they listen to lectures.• Learn best with visual materials such as pictures, charts, videos,
illustrated textbooks, and handouts.• Like to have a quiet place to study and use colorful highlighters
to mark notes and texts.
Visual Learners...
• Learn through moving, doing, and touching.• Need to take frequent study breaks and like to chew gum or to
snack while they study.• Like to stand, rather than sit, when learning something new.• Explorers at heart and like to learn through active participation
in what they are learning.
