Visual learner and me.

I am a visual learner and I don't like noises when I'm studying, which is challenging because the only place I can study beside my quiet bedroom, is the public library. Bummer. Also, I can't participate in a group study often, as I learnt that not only can I absorbed and learnt more in what I am reading/revising and also concentrate better on my assignment alone, being in a group especially with girls only, we tend to study about an hour or so and spent the rest of the day talking and sharing stories. Haha.

Recently I found out that while doing a really confusing problem sums with Big Bang Special Edition Still Alive album in the background, not only did I manage to finish up my homework, humming of course, I realized because Big Bang is a korean group and I don't even understand their language, thus my somewhat hard-wired English brain ignored their catchy tunes, and can concentrate fully with what I am doing in hand. Great!

TIPS FOR VISUAL LEARNER

• Draw pictures in notes to illustrate ideas.

• Write it out!
• Use a variety of colour pens, highlighters, note cards etc for different concepts/subjects.
• Make your study area visually appealing.
• Use outlines, pictures, graphs, charts and diagrams.
• Make mind maps.

Funny lah the way my brain works, but hey, it helps with the music on because studying in silence is dead uncomfortable. Too bad I only like listening to Big Bang songs. Guess it would be the most repeated playlist and annoyed album for the rest of my poor family members (hah!) while doing mathematics. *grins*

So, what is your learning style? Here's a cute illustrated guide to find out yours.
