Learning Styles.

Learning styles are different methods of learning and understanding new information, the way a person takes in, understand, expresses and remembers information.
There are 4 predominant learning styles: Visual, Auditory, Read/write, and Kinaesthetic.

Visual learners learn through seeing, so tools like diagrams, flowcharts, pictures and symbols can be key to understand new concepts.

Auditory learners learn through listening such as attending lectures, tutorials, group discussions are absolutely essential for these learners.

Read/Write learners learn through- what else? Such as, university style courses suit these types of learners fairly well- plenty of text books and study notes to read.

Kinaesthetic learners learn through doing. This is perhaps the most challenging learning style for university students, as there are not always many opportunities to engage in hands on learning in lectures.
