On Behalf of Tony

Surely there is no one-size-fits-all approach to learning, as we have seen dramatic increases in the number of learning tools made available. The 7 styles of learning includes: Visual, solitary, auditory, verbal, kinesthetic, social, and logical. I fall under the categories of visual and logical (mathematical) learning. When it comes to learning new topics, I create maps in my mind, replacing words with pictures, color, spatial understanding, and other visual media to help myself learn. Also, when reading an article or book, I aim to create and use lists by extracting key points from my material, as system thinking such as this helps me understand the bigger picture of any material. Visualization comes easily to me. Whenever I am stepping out of my comfort zone regarding learning, I learn best by creating graphic organizers such as diagrams and concept maps that use visual symbols represent ideas and info. If I am ever trying to remember something, I tend to close my eyes and visualize the information desired. I am thankful to be a visual learner because it helps with visualizing any general information. Usually, the human brain can only take 5-7 bits of information, but with my spatial and visual brain, I can easily remember double that. For instance, my specialty is with numbers, so if you were to tell me to remember someones full phone number, it would not be difficult at all.
