My mother didn39。t use to work during the week, but she worked in the post office near our house on Saturdays, and she used to bring home all the new stamps as soon as they were issued. On the day of the World Cup football final in London in 1966, we were very excited because England were playing West Germany in the final. When we were having lunch, my mother told us to go to the post office straightaway after the match if England won, but she didn39。t tell us why. At 2 o39。clock my mother went back to work as usual, while the rest of the family were watching the football on TV at home. Although she wasn39。t watching the match, she was listening to it on the radio. England won 4:2 and so my brothers and I ran to the post office. As we burst in, my mother was standing behind the counter. She was waiting to sell us a very special limited edition with ENGLAND WINNERS on each stamp. We were over the moon.

Are these three speakers, who are just chatting naturally, actually revealing what many people believe is their dominant thinking and learning style? Many educators, who research in this field say that everybody has one of three basic ways of processing the world: visual, auditory or kinaesthetic. Students who find their dominant learning style can make their learning more efficient. The Visual Learner:Look, you don39。t understand! The visual learner tends to learn by watching and copying what others do。 they usually draw diagrams, maps and pictures rather than taking notes in words. They have a rich imagination, they tend to see pictures in their head and daydream in colour。 they notice changes in people and places quickly。 they remember faces not names。 they write neatly and need a tidy environment to work in, but they like to surround themselves with colour, art and pictures。 they doodle a lot. The Auditory Learner:Listen, that39。s not right. The auditory learner prefers to listen to explanations, enjoys conversations, usually talks very well, with a wide vocabulary. They tend to move their lips when they read and often talk to themselves。 they usually remember names rather than faces。 they prefer listening to music to looking at art and pictures, but when they are studying, music distracts them。 they hum a lot. The Kinaesthetic Learner:Sorry, I don39。t follow you. Kinaesthetic learners are used to doing things physically, not listening to explanations or watching demonstrations. They like to move around when they are reading or walk up and down while trying to memorise things。 they tend to touch and hug people a lot. They often prefer sports to cinemas and concerts and may lose concentration quickly if they don39。t study in the right way. Do you recognise yourself in one of the descriptions above? Three students took the tests and this is what they said. The visual learner: My teacher always used to tell me off for doodling now I realise it helped me concentrate. The auditory learner: The coursebooks, which my colleagues found very interesting, were useless for me. I didn39。t want to read and take notes.
