M3-Learning styles

Having a good awareness of how you learn best will help significantly because you can tailor your learning to suit you best. If you don't know your own learning style there are several websites with tests which can tell you which style may be best for you. 
The tree most common learning styles are:

Visual
If you are a visual learner it will be best for you to make your learning more visual by using visual aids like diagrams and pictures.

Kinaesthetic
This learning style generally means that you will have best results from actually performing a physical task, you will have best results watching a practical task and then actually doing that task your self.

Auditory
This learning style means that you will benefit from listening to and talking about what you are trying to learn, listening to lectures and even putting things into song.

Just because a test tells you that you are one of the above styles it does not mean that is the only way you can learn, the theory that a person can only use one of these styles has actually been completely disproved in 2009 by the association of psychological science, however focusing most of your revision/learning on one of these styles depending on what you are doing can help a lot. You should experiment with various different methods and see which gives you the best results.
