• Auditory learners better retain information presented in

lectures and public speeches, audio recordings, and other

participation. These types of people are also known as

kinesthetic learners.

reasoning skills are usually logical learners. They notice

patterns quickly and have a keen ability to link information

that would seem nonrelated by others.

communication skills. These individuals are at ease speaking
