5. Read the text and be ready to summarize its main ideas. Answer the questions given below the text. Learning styles

Drs Marie Carbo, Rita Dunn and Kenneth Dunn have described the following three styles of learning:

  • auditory

  • visual

  • tactile-kinesthetic

Auditory learners are logical, analytical thinkers. They are comfortable with typical school tasks including analyzing sounds and numbers, following directions in order, and just “doing the right thing”. They are usually successful in school. Much of what they learn is from listening to information that is represented to them in class.

Visual learners learn best by seeing a visual representation of the material. They are global thinkers. They like to see “the big picture” rather than the details. They can learn to think logically, analytically and sequentially, but the most do this by working backwards from the whole to the parts.

Tactile-kinesthetic learners learn best when they can touch things or move while they are learning. Like visual learners, they are also global thinkers.
