There are three different learning preferences (visual, auditory, and kinesthetic), with two types of visual learning preferences. Visual-spatial learners like to see information displayed in a more graphic form. Visual-linguistic learners retain information better if they can read it. Study tactics for visual learners would include developing visuals for course materials (diagrams, charts, outlines, and timelines), highlighting your lecture notes and your text book using a color coded system, such as green for vocabulary, yellow for main ideas, and so forth, creating flash cards, watching YouTube videos, and developing a written practice test and taking it. Auditory learners prefer to listen or talk about a topic to learn about it. These learners depend on hearing or speaking as their main way to take in information. They learn better by listening rather than looking. Study tactics for auditory learners would include sitting where you can hear the lecture clearly, reading your lecture notes aloud so that you can hear them, get a study partner or join a study group so you can discuss and test information aloud, develop flashcards, and using CDs, podcasts, and audiobooks as available. Kinesthetic learners tend to remember and learn best when they are engaging physically or interactively with the subject matter. They prefer to study in a free-flowing, kinetic way-allowing yourself to move about the room as you study. Study tactics for kinesthetic learners would include taking notes on your laptop, studying where you can move about freely, engaging in hands-on activities to learn the material, studying notes on flashcards while walking or on an exercise bike, and using tangible items to help you remember concepts, such as a globe or model. I am I visual learner. If I see something I am more likely to remember it than I would hearing it from something or someone. This information can be used in the classroom by knowing what works best for
