Learning styles:
 
Linguistic Learners are the wordsmiths, the bookworms, and the people who always know what to say. Linguistic Learners are impressive when expressing themselves through the spoken or printed word. They relate best to the world through language. Activities Linguistic Learners may enjoy include giving speeches, writing poetry and reading literature. When learning new information or developing academic skills, Linguistic Learners benefit most from story telling, listening to lectures, conducting interviews, reading, and writing. Some examples of Linguistic Learners applying their learning style to their work are authors, journalists, lecturers, and copywriters.
 
Mathematical Learners are the math-whizzes, the game-lovers, and the rule-followers. This does not mean that their orderliness is translated into neatness, it does mean that Mathematical Learners think in logical ways. They relate best to the world through reasoning, numbers, patterns, and sequences. Activities Mathematical Learners may enjoy include counting and sorting objects, making time-lines, and solving 'brain teasers'. When learning new information or developing academic skills, Mathematical Learners benefit most from performing scientific experiments, following step-by-step processes, and using mathematical calculations. Some examples of Mathematical Learners applying their learning style to their work are scientists, mathematicians, accountants, and lawyers. |
