My Learning Style

If I have to learn how to do something, I learn best when I:

• Watch someone show me how... Visual

• Hear someone tell me how... Auditory

• Try to do it myself... Kinesthetic

When I read, I often find that I:

• Visualize what I am reading in my mind's eye... Visual

• Read out loud or hear the words inside my head... Auditory

• Fidget and try to "feel" the content... Kinesthetic

If I am unsure how to write a word, I ...

• write it in order to determine if it looks right... Visual

• spell it out loud in order to determine if ti sounds right... Auditory

• write it in order to determine if it feels right... Kinesthetic

If I had to remember a list of items, I would remember it best if:

• Wrote them down... Visual

• Said them over and over to myself... Auditory

• Move around and used my fingers to name each item... Kinesthetic

I prefer teachers who:

• Use a board or overhead projector while they lecture... Visual

• Talk with lots of expression... Auditory

• Use hands-on activities... Kinesthetic

When trying to concentrate, I have a difficult time when:

• There is a lot of clutter or movement in the room... Visual

• There is a lot of noise in the room... Auditory

• I have to sit still for any length of time... Kinesthetic

When solving a problem I:

• Write or draw diagrams to see it... Visual

• Talk myself through it... Auditory

• Use my entire body or move objects to help me think... Kinesthetic

When given written instructions on how to build something, I:

• Read them silently and try to visualize how the parts will fit together... Visual

• Read them out loud and talk to myself as I put the part together... Auditory

• Try to put the parts together first and read later... Kinesthetic

To keep occupied while waiting, I:

• Look around, starts, or read... Visual

• Talk or listen to others... Auditory

• Walk around, manipulate things with my hands, or move/shake my feet as I sit... Kinesthetic

When trying to recall names, I remember:

• Faces but forget names... Visual

• Names, but forget faces... Auditory

• The situation where I met the person rather than the person's name or face... Kinesthetic
