You are a Visual learner! Check out the information below, or view all of the learning styles.

Visual

If you are a visual learner, you learn by reading or seeing pictures. You understand and remember things by sight. You can picture what you are learning in your head, and you learn best by using methods that are primarily visual. You like to see what you are learning.

As a visual learner, you are usually neat and clean. You often close your eyes to visualize or remember something, and you will find something to watch if you become bored. You may have difficulty with spoken directions and may be easily distracted by sounds. You are attracted to color and to spoken language (like stories) that is rich in imagery.

Here are some things that visual learners like you can do to learn better:

• Sit near the front of the classroom. (It won't mean you're the teacher's pet!)
• Have your eyesight checked on a regular basis.
• Use flashcards to learn new words.
• Try to visualize things that you hear or things that are read to you.
• Write down key words, ideas, or instructions.
• Draw pictures to help explain new concepts and then explain the pictures.
• Color code things.
• Avoid distractions during study times.

Remember that you need to see things, not just hear things, to learn well.

Reflection

     As you can see above, I am a visual learner. By learning visually I maximize the usage of my sight in 

learning new things. This encourages my eyesight to be sharper than normal. I usually remember facts and 

points better by looking at it. I am able to visualize it later when needed. I prefer looking at pictures to learn as it 

really helps me remember. Moreover, as a visual learner I am more prone to drawing mind maps as well as 

highlighting important and key points rather than listing out everything that I have learnt in a particular topic. 

These technique will help me to master any subject matter . Eventually, it would help me to achieve good 

grades in my exam which results in a great boost in my overall academic performance.
