Auditory learners learn best through hearing information rather than seeing it. They pick up new ideas better when they hear information through lectures, audio books, talking with others, or reading notes aloud. Some characteristics of auditory learners include that they prefer to investigate things by talking to others rather than looking things up, enjoy talking with people in their free time, follow along with reading by mouthing words, and learn schedules and tasks better when discussing them verbally. Auditory learners benefit from using tools like tape recorders, cassette tapes, movies, videos, and music to aid their learning.
