What Is A Visual Learner?

Visual learners learn through seeing. These learners need to see the teacher’s body language and facial expression to fully understand the content of a lesson. These students tend to prefer sitting at the front of the classroom to avoid visual obstructions. They frequently think in pictures and learn best from visual displays including diagrams, illustrated textbooks, overhead transparencies, videos, and handouts. During a lecture, visual learners prefer to either take detailed notes to absorb the information or receive a printed copy of the instructor’s lecture notes.
