Visual Learner

If you like to look at pictures and use lists to organize your thoughts, you are a visual learner. Visual learners remember what they see the most. They usually see words as pictures or other objects. If you are a visual learner, it is a good idea to color-code your notes with different colored pens. The best ways to help you when learning English are drawing pictures of vocabulary words, using flashcards, and watching videos.

Auditory Learner

If you like listening to conversations and hearing instructions, you are an auditory learner. Auditory learners learn best by hearing and carefully listening. The best ways to help you study are listening to lectures, audiobooks, singing vocabulary words, memorizing songs, and reading out loud. You can also try recording yourself talking in English and play it back to listen and review.
