I AM A VISUAL LEARNER
Of the four styles of learning, I find that I am more a visual learner. For many years, I have always enjoyed the visual aspects of presentations, lectures, documentaries, articles, books, and more. ... Angie Stanton & Kelly Curiel in “Pathways to Learning”, provides a good description of visual learners:
“These types of learners learn through sight. Their main preference being visual and they can typically recall what they have read or observed. ... A question most often will have to be repeated for this type of learner. ... According to the article “Learning styles 101” by Sean
Griffin, there are two types of visual learning: visual-linguistic and visual-spatial.
“Visual-linguistic learners learn best through written language, and prefer reading and writing
tasks when learning. ... Visual-spatial learners sometimes have trouble with written language.
They prefer charts, demonstrations, videos, and other similar visual materials. ...
FLAWS OF A VISUAL LEARNER
There are several flaws in this style of gaining information. ...
FINDING SOLUTIONS FROM STRENGTHS
I believe I have many positive elements as a visual learner that I can rely on in order to
embrace information and topics, to successfully complete my MBA at the University of Phoenix,
and to help advance within my career. Those elements were also outlined by William Slagle on
the website “Teaching to multiple learning styles: The visual learner”, visual learners have the tendency to, “thrive on complexity, loves difficult puzzles, fascinated by computers, great at geometry/physics, keen visual memory, creative/imaginative, a systems thinker, high abstract reasoning, excels in math analysis, high reading comprehension, and excellent sense of humor”
(Slagle, W, May 6, 2003), most of which describes myself.
