Directions: Use the study tips outlined for your first learning preference and then reinforce what you
are learning with tips from your second preference.
1. Write down anything that you want to remember, such as a list of things to do, facts to learn facts for a test, etc.
2. Try to write down information in your own words. If you don't have to think about the material and
restate it in your own words, you won't really learn it.
3. Underline or highlight important words you need to learn as you read.
4. When learning a new vocabulary word, visualize the word.
5. When you have a list of things to remember, keep the list in a place where you will be sure to see it
several times a day. Suggestions: bulletin board by your desk at home, in your notebook, on the mirror in the bathroom, etc.
6. Try drawing a picture of any information you want to learn. Try making a diagram, a chart, or
actually drawing people, things, etc.
7. Always read any material in the textbook before going to class so you have a chance to visually
connect with the information before hearing it.
