Learners who process information by physical movement, trying it out for themselves and through touch are kinaesthetic learners. They might feel fidgety at times; enjoy sports or any physical activities. They can also easily remember things which they have touched or experiences they have gone through. Here are some study tips to help them:

  • Conduct hands-on activities like building, experimenting, painting, etc

  • Take short breaks in between lessons (as they may have a shorter attention span)

  • Study in groups

  • Make models

They prefer to recite information, enjoy talking and listening to others speak. Here are some study tips to help them:

  • Give verbal instructions

  • Encourage them to ask or answer questions

  • Let them recite out loud

  • Make up stories and songs to help them remember

  • Read stories!
