Many experts believe that we use one of our senses more than the others when we learn. This idea comes from the fact that we learn best with one of these four ways: visual (seeing),auditory (hearing), kinaesthetic (moving) or tactile (touching) ~ read on ...
Visual learners
...enjoy looking at pictures and graphic displays
...use lists to organise their thoughts
...recognise words when they see them displayed
Tips for the visual learner: -
- Draw pictures of vocabulary words and diagrams of grammar rules
- Use flash-cards to review new words
- Visualise a conversation with the new words you’ve learnt
- Watch sections in films/movies and do simulation activities of those scenes
Auditory learners
...enjoy listening to dialogues and discussions
...like to hear spoken instructions
...use rhythm and sounds to help remember information
Tips for the auditory learner:
- Sing vocabulary words, memorise songs or make rhymes to remember grammar rules
- Read out loud as much as possible
- Record yourself speaking English and play back the tapes for review
- Focus on the listening activities, conversation classes and voice chat rooms
Kinaesthetic learners
...find it difficult to sit in front of the computer for long periods of time
...learn best when trying something for themselves
...use movement as a memory aid
Tips for the kinaesthetic learner:
- Don’t sit at the computer for too long
- Take breaks often
- Chew gum while you’re studying!
- Mentally review your lessons while exercising
- Stay active by attending conversation classes regularly
Tactile learners
...enjoy working with their hands
...remember words by writing or typing them on the keyboard
...learn well through practical activities like projects and games
Tips for the tactile learner:
- Participate in role-playing and drama activities as much as you can
- Use objects to help you remember vocabulary words
- Use flash-cards and take them with you when you’re out
- You learn by doing, so practice English as much as you can!
What’s your learning style? Do you combine two or more styles?
