What it means to be a Visual Learner
There are three main types of learning styles: visual, auditory, and kinaesthetic. Once I had taken the …. test I was then fully aware of the fact that I was in fact a visual learner, this didn’t come as a surprise to me as I have always known that visual was one of my strongest methods as when taking notes, I often replaced words with symbols wherever possible and when I would write notes from class I’d use different fonts, bold print, and underlining to make the most important concepts and facts visually appealing. Visual learners learn best when information is presented in a written language format or in another visual format such as pictures or diagrams.
