In this project, we intend to identify the way a student process the information he/she gets. We will apply specific tests to our leraners and catagorize them into three main types of learners- visual, auditory and kinesthetic. For each group, we will set up a suitable language environment so that learner feel more secure in understanding the subjects and have much more fun during the lesson. We must keep in mind that every student can learn everything, but the point is that we must know how they process the information they get from the outer world. If language teachers know the relationship betweeen mind and thoughts, they will be more productive in their lessons and students will more likely to succeed. We aim to apply the same subject but to different learner groups with their appropriate learning styles. Research has shown that students can perform better on tests if they change study habits to fit their own personal learning styles. Firstly, auditory learners often talk to themselves. They also may move their lips and read out loud. They may have difficulty with reading and writing tasks. They often do better talking to a colleague or a tape recorder and hearing what was said. Secondly, visual learners have two sub-channels - linguistic and spatial. Learners who are visual-linguistic like to learn through written language, such as reading and writing tasks. They remember what has been written down, even if they do not read it more than once. They like to write down directions and pay better attention to lectures if they watch them. Learners who are visual-spatial usually have difficulty with the written language and do better with charts, demonstrations, videos, and other visual materials. They easily visualize faces and places by using their imagination and seldom get lost in new surroundings.lastly, Kinesthetic learners do best while touching and moving. This also has two sub-channels: kinesthetic (movement) and tactile (touch). They tend to lose concentration if there is little or no external stimulation or movement. When listening to lectures they may want to take notes for the sake of moving their hands. When reading, they like to scan the material first, and then focus in on the details (get the big picture first). They typically use coloured highlighters and take notes by drawing pictures, diagrams, or doodling. As a result , we now know that right materials and activities should be given for each type of language larners. In this way, they will have fun and learn more easily than ever!
