One strength of visual learners lies in visualizing and imagining different situations. Visual strategies are used to remember specific information. Visual learners also tend to take in the whole picture when encountering a problem or discussion, as opposed to one smaller part of the issue. Visual learners also gain pleasure from more creative applications of learning that requires vision, such as painting and art.
Visual learners tend to take in the entire picture and therefore sense any aspect of the picture that is out of alignment. Visual learners tend to have great organizational skills, especially where images or appearances are concerned, such as interior decorating and color coding. Also, visual learners can rotate images or create mirrored images in their minds, making them adept at arranging and fixing things.
Personal presentation and appearance tend to take a high priority for visual learners. How they regard their own appearance is important and they tend to take strides in grooming and keeping an organized, clean, healthy appearance. Visual learners also tend to make eye contact when speaking to others. They tend to notice smaller visual details and tend to want to watch more than talk.
Visual learners can remember faces better than names. They can easily memorize things by seeing them on a piece of paper. Visual learners are good at spelling and like to read. They are especially attracted to text that is rich in imagery.
