There are about eight types of learning styles: active, reflective, sensing, intuitive, visual, verbal, sequential, and global. My 4 types of learning styles are reflective, intuitive, visual, and sequential. Since now I know how I learn best, I can use these techniques to help me study for my courses and exams.
             A reflective learner prefers thinking about the information given quietly and working alone. He wouldn't like to jump into things unless he thought about it thoroughly. However, if he wastes too much time reflecting on the information, he may not even get anything done, especially if the class doesn't have the time for him to cogitate on the material. A reflective learner should try to stop periodically to analyze the information given in order to contemplate of possible questions and ideas. He would want to summarize or take notes on chapters to make the information more effective, even though it takes more time to do so.
             An intuitive learner tends to like discovering possibilities and relationships in everything. He likes innovation, but can't stand repetition. Courses that encompasses a lot of memorization and routine calculations are not the classes an intuitive learner would want to take and be good in. He may be better at grasping new concepts and are customarily more comfortable with abstractions and mathematical formulations. Intuitors can be in the habit of working faster and be more creative. Nevertheless, if they overemphasize intuition, they may miss important details or make careless mistakes in calculations. An intuitive learner can try to find interpretations that link the facts. He may also take the time to read the question completely before answering it, and check the results since he may miss an important factor to the problem.
             Visual learners understand the information best by what they see. Examples are pictures, diagrams, flow charts, time lines, films, demonstrations, etc. Most cl...
