Auditory Learner?
I used to declare that I wasn't an auditory learner. Perhaps it was an unsubstantiated notion, and maybe I just figured I could learn material much faster by reading it than by hearing a professor say it. That is probably true...
But maybe my classmates are correct when they say I pick up a lot by ear. For one, I have found that when I study lecture notes, I can hear the teacher saying certain words. I don't suppose it would work that way if the teacher had an entirely normal voice; but give them a slightly nasal effect, give them a southern drawl or a British accent, and it may well enhance my memory for the material. Intentional voice inflections probably work the same way.
How is it for the rest of you?
