They believed that people generally learned in one of three styles; visual, auditory or kinesthetic/tactile. This model focuses on how people acquire information (Willis, 1999). Visual learners retain information better when watching a video or reading. They generally follow directions well, are very organized and can visualize objects easily. Auditory learners retain information better when listening, whether it's a lecture or an audiotape. They respond well to lessons, can write and listen well and study better in groups. Kinesthetic/tactile learners want to move as they learn. They love practical experiments, they move while working and tend to doodle during lessons, they prefer to be discussion-oriented
