Have you ever noticed that you seem to learn faster in certain classes but slowly in others? Maybe you think it's because of the different difficulties of subjects, but the real reason is that our learning types are different.

Now, you may wonder what a learning type is and how to find yours.

There are mainly three different learning types: Visual, Auditory and Kinesthetic. You can be a combination(混合) of learning types, but most people have one main type. Visual learners learn best by seeing. If you seem to easily remember information from pictures, charts and videos, you are likely a visual learner. Auditory learners learn best by hearing. If you seem to remember things by hearing them, then you are likely an auditory learner.

Kinesthetic learners learn best by doing. If you seem to learn best by working with your hands or testing out what you are shown, you are likely a kinesthetic learner.

So now that you know your personal learning style, the trick is to find out how to use your new-found knowledge to help you  in your classes.

Tips for Visual Learners

＊Pay attention! For visual learners, this is very important! If your teacher uses a PowerPoint, watch the pictures carefully and find out what they might include and their hidden meanings.

＊Take notes by drawing charts and connecting ideas instead of just copying

down a list. This way, your brain will easily connect the different concepts(概念). You can even draw pictures if you find that works better for you.

＊Mark your notes or your note cards in different colors. This will help your brain in keeping all of the information separate. Different colors show different types of information or importance.

＊Download the PowerPoint if your teacher puts it on QQ. This way, you canreview them before an exam.

Tips for Auditory Learners

＊Again, pay attention! If you aren't listening while the lecture is happening, then as an auditory learner, you're missing the easiest way for you to learn.

＊If your teacher allows you to record the lecture, record it for future listening.

＊If you find that taking notes stops you from listening, ask a friend if you can borrow his or her notes or write down everything you remember right after the lesson.

 Tips for Kinesthetic Learners

＊The first point is paying attention once again! For kinesthetic learners, it's especially important to take notes either by writing or typing, in order to actively get information as you receive it.

＊Make use of laboratories and other class activities. Focus on what you're

learning from the experience and pay close attention to the process that you go through.

＊Visualize! That is to imagine yourself picking up information and putting it into a category(类别). This may sound silly, but in this way you're “doing” something without actually physically doing it.

＊Rewrite notes and reread information. Try to translate the information into examples. This can help kinesthetic learners remember what they need to know.

    It is important for each child to get enough sleep every day．Here．we'll learn more about that．{#blank#}1{#/blank#}

    It usually depends on their age．Newborns (新生儿)of 0 to 3 months should sleep for about 18 hours a day．Babies of 4 to 11 months should start to sleep through the night，for 9 to 12 hours at a time．{#blank#}2{#/blank#}Children of 3 to 5 years should get 11 to 13 hours a day．Children of 6 to 13 need 9 to 11 hours of sleep．Teenagers of 14 and up need 8 to 10 hours of sleep．{#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    Set a strict nap timetable(小睡时间表)．Younger children should take a short sleep during the day．Even older children can benefit(得益于)from late—afternoon naps if they don't get enough steep at night．{#blank#}4{#/blank#}

    Pay attention to(注意)screen time．Remember to ask children to tum off the television and the computer an hour before they go to bed．If possible，get them out of their bedrooms since the light(光)from the screens can make sleep a difficult job．

Get children movin9．{#blank#}5{#/blank#}Running around and playing sports are great, but children can move in other ways．too．They can take a dog for a walk or go to the park—just get them out of the house and get them moving．

    The way we spend our time can be. divided into three groups，or jars(罐子).These would be the necessary tasks jar, the voluntary tasks jar and the happiness jar.

    Every day，we spend time filling the necessary tasks jar. We fill this jar with useful things，like making money，doing housework，buying food and paying bills. We then fill another jar with voluntary tasks like taking children to activities and cooking family meals. Those jars are very important，but we may not enjoy them. If we don't fill them each day，our family won't run properly.

    However, we often forget to fill the third jar—the happiness jar. This is the jar that we fill with activities that make us happy. Is your happiness jar sometimes empty at the end of the day? We all have days like that. Between doing all the necessary, and voluntary tasks，time flies by on some days，and before we know it，it is time for bed.

    That is why each day we try to fill our happiness jar. Most days，I fill mine by going to the ballroom dance(社交舞)class. Playing music is another way that I fill my happiness jar. This week，I was happy to take part in an orchestra(管弦乐队)practice at my church(教堂).At the end of the evening, my happiness jar was full.

    Consider how your time is spent. Try to find ways to achieve a balance. At the end of the day，hopefully we've done all we can to make sure that our happiness jar is filled.
