Read/Write Learners are sometimes referred to as the traditional learners. The learners that can read through textbooks and write notes to allow them to process the information easily. These type of learners usually enjoy reading or writing stories and prefer working on their own, without distraction.
Some tips for studying for Read/Write Learners:
Take Notes
In class, when the teacher is talking, or when you are watching a video or webinar, you can make good use of the information by taking notes in your own words. You should write down the key points and use tools such as highlighting , underlining and circling to identify key points.
Re-Writing Notes
You can also re-write your notes again to help your studying. To do this, you could read over the text, then close it over and write out what you have learned from reading those notes. It’s important to note that JUST READING NOTES DOESN’T WORK! Reading notes and then revising what you have learned by writing it down is an effective way of studying.
Bullet Points
When you are revising a topic, it may also be useful for read/write learners to use bullet pointed lists to write down key points. This involves you making a list to help you plan to write a longer piece of work, to remind you of what to do and in what order, or to highlight key areas to study.
