AUDITORY (Hearing)

The third type of learner is known as the AUDITORY person. He or she learns best by hearing or listening. These people do no necessarily make pictures in their minds, as do the visual learners, but rather filter incoming information through their listening arepeating skills. The AUDITORY learner tells wonderful stories and solves problems by "talking" about them.  The excellent hearing and listening skills of this type of learner are what make great musicians, disc jockeys, psychologists, etc. Speech patterns will represent exactly how the AUDITORY person thinks, i.e., "I hear ya, that clicks, that sounds right, that rings a bell" etc. In school, the AUDITORY learner learns by listening and can easily repeat statements back to the teacher. The AUDITORY child likes classdiscussions but can become easily distracted. Of the three styles, the AUDITORY is the most talkative and has more difficulty writing.
Children taking written tests are expected to retrieve the information in the VISUAL learning style. The very fact that the information is written down produces a visual image. Nearly all subjects demand that the child make internal pictures of the information, store them and then recall the information in pictures to write onto a piece of paper. You must teach your child or student how to become a VISUAL learner if they are to succeed in school because nearly all school testing is conducted in the visual or written mode. If your child does not naturally learn in the visual style, you can give the most help by letting them in on some of the visual learners techniques. .
