tell students that they are going to listen to kamila who is talking about the 
types of learning styles. Ask them to listen to the tape and answer the questions:
TapE sCRIpT 8.
Hi everybody! My name is Kamila and I’m a teacher at university. Today I 
want to talk you about three types of learning styles. You have kinesthetic which 
is more of your interactive hands-on type of learning. Visual learning is mostly 
just read or skim the notes. If you like lots of pictures, different backgrounds 
or different things like that they help you understand and connect the learning 
material. And the final type is auditory. You can just sit there and the teacher can 
play audio materials and you listen to what is being said and learn that way. now 
i’m personally a mixture of three styles i think. As i said before i’m a teacher, i 
have a lab associated with my lecture classes for teaching. For the lab part of 
my teaching class I’m very kinesthetic, so I’m very hands-on. I’m also visual… 
we are all very hands-on in the lab so we can learn how to do different skills. So, 
if you are an audio learner, definitely pay attention and just you know, bring a 
tape recorder to class and record the teacher as he is talking. i actually did that 
during my freshman year and it helped me a lot.
