I am a 37% auditory listener, a 34% kinesthetic, and a 29% visual learner. I personally like to listen to a book rather than reading them in my head or I like to read out loud. I was also taught to read out loud rather than in my head, my mom would not let me read in my head because she thought I would learn better and become a better reader by read out loud and ever since then I have always like to read out loud. Being a 37% auditory listener you might like to listen to auto-books, podcasts, hum or talk to yourself while you are studying, and enjoy reading out loud. Some study tips for auditory listeners are:
- Record yourself reading your notes and listen to them
- Talk to someone about the topic
- Repeat the information with your eyes closed
- Listen to recorded media related to the subject
A tip to being a kinesthetic listener is to take breaks while talking and make slight gestures to when you read and talk to others.
- Use flashcards
- Study short pieces of work at a time and have breaks
When you are a visual learner you could:
- Close your eyes during class and visualize
- Underline or highlight main topics
- Create an image in your brain to help you imagine the situation
- Turn concepts into charts and diagrams
