If you are a visual learner, you remember things you've seen.
If you see it, you can understand it. A visual learner:
Remembers information in pictures, charts, or
diagrams more easily than the same information presented verbally.
Visualizes things as he learns them, often looking
into the distance as if he's "seeing" the information.
Is able to "read" people by their body language,
knowing what they're really thinking, even as they say something else.
Takes copious notes, even when his lecturer
promises to provide handouts.
Tends to be quiet and often need to be coaxed into
answering questions.
Can easily remember where things are and, can as
well assemble most things without help from printed or pictured instructions.
Easily recognizes if he has worked on or seen a
page of material before.
Makes it a priority to look neat and be colour-
coordinated.
Doodles on paper when talking.
Is easily distracted by anything that catches his eye.
If given a choice, he would most likely watch TV
or read a book in his spare time.
If the above applies to you, here are some strategies to help
you while studying:
Create pictures of concepts.
Work with illustrations, graphs, videos, or models
of study materials.
Make notes or diagrams of your reading materials.
Use highlighters, different colored pens to color-
code different concepts. As well, circle words, underline.
Study where there are no distractions, nothing that
will visually catch your eye.
For exam preparation, use post-it notes with key
concepts on your computer, mirror, fridge, and walls. The above nuggets are extracted from the book: The Firstclass You. For more, you can download the book at: https://payhip.com/b/bupt
