LEARNING STYLES 

 > There are many learning styles we can use to help us easily understand what we learn and keep in our memories.

So here I provide 3 examples of learning styles ;-

Let me explain a little bit of visual , auditory and kinesthetic learning styles

VISUAL  > learners respond to images and graphics.

AUDITORY  > learners prefer verbal presentations

KINESTHETIC  > learners prefer a physical, hands-on approach.

From the questions that has been given by my lecturer , I can find out my learning style with answer the 10 questions. For your information , I’m a visual learner    

I preffered to visual style.

The reason are :-

1. I can understand and remember things in sight.

2. I like to see what I learn.

3. It more efective for me.

So , we can determine our learning style by ask ourselves and try to answer questions according to ourselves.
