Fidget or move back and forth. Picture a cat in your mind. Say the word "cat" to yourself. Think about being with a cat petting it or hearing it purr. Read the book or your notes and review pictures or charts. Have someone ask you questions that you can answer out loud.
Make up index cards that you can review. Get someone to show you. Read about it or listen to someone explain it. Figure it out on your own. The faces of the people who were there. The music that was played. The dance moves you did and the food you ate. People walking past you. Loud noises. An uncomfortable chair. Put on your "mad" face.
Yell and scream. Slam doors. Smile from ear to ear. Talk up a storm. Act really hyper. Look for a map or directory that shows you where everything is. Ask someone for directions. Just start walking around until you find what you're looking for. Art class. Music class. Gym class. Picture the video that goes along with it.
Sing or hum along with the music. Start dancing or tapping your foot. Lights that are too bright or too dim. Noises from the hallway or outside the building like traffic or someone cutting the grass. The temperature being too hot or too cold.
Listen to music. Exercise walk, run, play sports, etc. Picture the numbers on the phone as you would dial them. Say it out loud over and over and over. Write it down or store it in your phone contact list. Maybe we could call them learning preferences or learning familiarity Hong suggests that common devices used to teach certain subjects, such as visuals in geography and geometry or rhythm and music in memorization are indications of how most people will learn those specific subjects best.
In this way, learning styles can still have a real impact on your experience as a student. Consider learning songs in school to memorize material—going all the way back to the ABCs. If staring at a list of important historical dates is getting you nowhere, you might attempt making them into a song. Visual learners absorb information best when they can visualize relationships and ideas. Maps, charts, diagrams and even essays work well for visual learners.
When instructors illustrate or diagram their lectures on a whiteboard, visual learners may find they remember the information much better. Haynes finds that visuals are pretty essential for all students when it comes to subjects like geometry. Auditory learners are all ears. They tend to prefer listening to information rather than reading it or seeing it visually displayed. Auditory learners may speak and read slowly. They tend to be linear thinkers and may repeat things they hear out loud.
When it comes to studying, an auditory learner might remember material best if they talk about it with someone else, since it will be easier to recall a conversation than a visual image of words on a page.
Kinesthetic learners are the most hands-on learning type. They learn best by doing and may get fidgety if forced to sit for long periods of time. Kinesthetic learners do best when they can participate in activities or solve problems in a hands-on manner. Sometimes even being physically engaged tossing a ball, knitting will help them retain information better. They tend to remember what they do best. Reading and writing learners are extremely comfortable with the written word.
They prefer to consume information by reading texts and can further absorb information by condensing and rephrasing it. But if you look back over how you have learned best in the past, you can make informed choices about the kind of program you choose to enroll in. For example, Haynes says a subject like grammar can be dangerous if students rely on auditory learning.
Grammar in common usage is not always correct. Or giving someone the same lesson that you once had but it never worked out for them?
That is because each student has their own way to absorb and store information. In this article, we introduce the VARK learning styles model to help you reflect and identify your most suitable approach. In the s, the idea of individualized learning style became popular and after years of research at Lincoln University, New Zealand, Neil D. Fleming launched the VARK model. Some students find that they are a blend of two, three or even four learning styles.
In this case, you have a multimodal learning style in which you will have to adapt different approaches into each stage. Understanding your preferred learning style can help tailor your own study road map and leverage academic achievements. It is awesome that students know where they want to grow at a young age, and having a tool like VARK can help you get there much faster.
A book with lots of words and details. A book with word searches or crossword puzzles. If you're ever unsure of how to spell a word, what are you most likely to do?

Write down key words, ideas, or instructions.
