LEARNING STYLES

1. Visual

- Visual learners. These students always use their sight to see the information to remember better. They learn by reading and seeing things. By doing that, they can picture what they learn in their head, and they like to take notes.

2. Auditory

- Auditory learners learn by hearing and listening. They tend to understand and remember things that they heard. Also, they can store information by the way it sounds and better than the written one.

3. Kinesthetic

- Students who possess this learning style tend to learn by manipulating material and things. They also like to do practical work. Mostly, students with these types of learning spend more time studying hands-on manner things and solving problems rather than hearing lectures or reading books.

My result for this test is:

visual: 7

auditory: 6

kinesthetic: 6

Based on the result, I'm a visual learner.
