Visual Learners

The Visual Learners

If you are a visual learner, you prefer images, pictures, colors and maps to organize information and communicate with others. You visualize objects, plans and results in your mind's eye. You have a good spatial sense which gives you a good sense of direction as well. Use the following study tips to help you do better for school.

If you have been categorized as an visual learner, you learn best by using pictures, images, color and visual media to help you learn. You need to use a lot of imagery in your visualizations. 

Use the following techniques to help you learn visually

- Use Mind maps. Instead of text use colors and images where possible. Have at least more than four different colors. 
- System diagrams can help you visualize the links between parts of a system, like an engine system. Replace words with pictures, and use colors to highlight major parts and minor parts to separate them visually. 
- Use color, layout, and spatial organization in your work, and use many 'visual words' in your work. Examples include see, picture, perspective, visual, and map.
- Color code things. 
- Use flashcards
- Use highlighters to circle important words and phrases. 
- Watch videos, like if doing research on history, watch some video on the particular history instead of reading big paragraphs. 
- Diagram things

These tips will help you improve in school.
