Study Tips for Auditory Learners

  • Explain the material you are trying to learn to a study partner.
  • Make up and repeat rhymes to remember facts, dates, names, etc.
  • Read explanations out loud.  Be sure to go over all important facts out loud.
  • Find audio tapes that review the information you are trying to learn.
  • Make up songs to go along with subject matter. The crazier the better.
  • Join or create a study group, or get a study partner.
  • Record lectures and review these tapes while you drive.
  • To learn a sequence of steps, write them out in sentence form, then read them out loud.
  • Say words in syllables.
  • Use mnemonics and word links.
  • When learning new information, state the problem out loud. Reason through solutions out loud.
  • Use the Multi-Media Study Skills CD-ROM in the Teaching and Learning Center to increase your study skills.
