I AM A VISUAL LEARNER


Visual learners




Visual learners attend to information most effectively when they see something, for example, pictures, diagrams, films and videos or demonstrations. Check to see if some of the following characteristics may apply to you.


Behaviours/ characteristics of visual learners:
Remember what they see rather than what they hear
Remember diagrams and pictures
Prefer to read and write rather than listen
Have trouble remembering verbal instructions
Need an overall view and purpose before beginning a project
Like art more than music
Sometimes tune out when trying to pay attention.


Study hints for visual learners:
Take written notes in lectures & class
Use colours to highlight important points
Pay attention to diagrams, charts and pictures in text books
Use mindmaps ( with colours & diagrams) to organise information for an assignment or for revision for an exam.
Put summaries and mindmaps on the walls in your study area
Use a wall planner.
