Tactile/Kinesthetic learners learn best when they can use their sense of touch and can move about. If you are a tactile/kinesthetic learner, the suggestions that follow can help you to succeed in school to the best of your ability.
Be physically active while you study. Rather than just sit at your desk, occasionally walk back and forth with your textbook or notes as you read the information out loud.
To decrease your fidgeting as you study, listen to music, preferably baroque music. However, discontinue this if you find the music to be distracting.
Make extensive use of a computer and the Internet. Actively touching the keyboard will keep your mind active.
Take extensive written notes in class. Edit and type them later.
Study in short blocks of time with frequent but short breaks.
Do something physical as you study such as tapping a pencil or squeezing a stress ball.
Use your finger as a guide while reading.
Act out things you have to learn whenever possible.
Construct models of things you have to learn whenever possible.
If you find it difficult to sit at a desk when studying, trying lying on your stomach or back.
When trying to remember information, close your eyes and "write" the information in the air. Picture the information in your mind as you do so.
Use concrete objects to help you understand math concepts.
When trying to learn the spelling of a difficult word, arrange letter blocks to spell the word.
