Tips For Different Learning Styles
| AUDITORY LEARNERS | VISUAL LEARNERS | TACTILE LEARNERS | |
| Encourage them to explain the material to you, as if they were the tutor. | Let them take notes during the tutoring session. | Encourage them to pick up the book as they are reading or talking. | |
| Ask them to read explanations out loud. | Use a blackboard or notepaper for both of you to write questions and answers. | Have them write while they are reading or talking. | |
| Ask the student to make up a song using the subject material. The 'crazier' the better. | Encourage the use of color-coded highlighting. | Encourage them to walk around and for appropriate books and other resources. | |
| Tell the students they can review audio tapes while they drive. | Use graph paper to help them create charts and diagrams that demonstrate key points. | Advise them to sit near the front of their classroom and to take notes. This will keep the student focused. | |
| Advise them that when they are learning new information, state the problem out loud. Reason through solutions out loud. | Have them use mnemonics, acronyms, visual chains, and mind maps. | Advise them to spend extra time in any labs offered. | |
| Ask the student to say words in syllables. | Advise them to use the computer to organize materials and to create graphs, tables, charts, and spreadsheets. | Encourage them to use the computer to reinforce learning using their sense of touch. | |
| Refer them to our study skills videotapes. | Ask the student to organize the material. | Advise them to write with their fingers in sand. | |
| Encourage them to make up and repeat rhymes to remember facts, dates, names, etc. Make sure they go over all important facts aloud. | Use visual analogies. Use photographs. | Have them write lists repeatedly. | |
| Advise the student to join or create a study group, or to get a study partner. | Use visual metaphors. | Advise them to exaggerate lip movements in front of a mirror. | |
| To learn a sequence of steps, write them out in sentence form, then read them out loud. | When you ask them to explain something, suggest they do so by writing the explanation down. | Ask them to stand while they explain something to you. | |
| Ask the student to use mnemonics and word links. | Ask them to make flashcards, then use them during the session/s. The act of writing (the cards) and viewing them doubles their comprehension. | Ask them to use rhythm (beats) to memorize or explain something. | |
| Involve the student in a discussion of the material. | Encourage them to visualize the scene, formula, words, charts, etc. | As the student is explaining something, have the student point to the subject matter in the book, on the board, etc., while reading it out loud. | |
| Refer them to the Study Skills videotapes. | Use illustrations. | Advise students to use hands-on experience when possible. |
