Visual thinkers benefit from learning visually, so come and join one of our FREE coaching sessions, for visual thinkers, their teachers and parents.
In our experience of visual thinkers for over 25 years, there are some simple things students (adults or children), teachers and family members can do to make life easier whilst maintaining the student’s strengths and without changing who they are.
Who would think of making a dog look like this? Well a visual thinker. Visual thinkers use mental images to recall information they have seen before and to explore new ideas. These are invaluable skills for all sorts of things such as problem solving, empathy, hyper-focus, creating inventive solutions and so much more. These skills are also much in need in business today, so lets make sure students don’t lose them.
Enabling a student to use their natural visual skills, makes learning much easier and we see dramatic improvements not only in learning but also in their self-confidence. The reason is that simple steps scaffolding onto what they are already good at makes sense; using your own mental images is the key.
Here are the list of our classes to help support visual thinkers, and they are free for anyone to join in.
