I agree. That is exactly the case I found when I came to study journalism in UALR. I found that actually I was not an audio type of learner, I am both. I need both audio and visual helps to memorize in an efficient way. That may be because of the way of Chinese is written. It is a language that do not need us to read word for word, letter for letter. I have maps in my mind while reading Chinese literature works. But for English, often times, I have to read word for word because if I don't, it was very easy to confused when a similar spelling came to my mind. This is because I am not as familiar with the language as native English speakers do. I seldom have any expectations……..
Read the following as you would normally read a paragraph:
