Topic:Visual learners?

A talk a little about being a visual learner. I definitely am a visual learner.

I know that when I see a diagram or I see somebody demonstrate something I really understand it much better than if they were to explain it to me just using words or if I were to read about it. I guess the best example of this is I've been studying about phrenology and the manner of articulating words and sounds and it wasn't until I could see a diagram of where the tongue goes and where the lips are and where the teeth, where the jaw is, sorry, that you really get a sense of how things are articulated and how we actually say words. Even though we do it every day and, you know, make, we make sounds with our mouths, it isn't until I actually saw a lot of diagrams about it that I really could think about it in a way that, that I could analyze and produce some kind of critical thought about it. So, yeah, I'm definitely a visual thinker. Thanks.
