Current Events > I envy people who can learn from just reading a book/article

(+) Yeah! (+)

I have a cousin who has straight As since 1st grade and he's one of these types where he can cram a book and then demonstrate shit from it like he's been doing it for years.

I, on the other hand, is more of a hands-on learner. I have to see it visually, have it explained to me and then I have to try it myself to eventually get it. Life sucks.

Do your best

You are the reason a fifteen second question apparently can only be answered by a thirty minute video now.

TBF, I've had a few bad teachers during college. They read straight off the book and don't explain what it all means in details. I've had good professors who read the books for us and then laymans term it so good that even a 5 year old would understand, and then they would demonstrate what he's talking about.

I can cram a book and "learn" the content well enough to do well on a test but I will generally forget that soon. I need to apply things in ordee to retain them well. So I never liked more theoretical classes like management and what not as I had no way to really apply them immediately. Math on the other had has immediate application with problems so it was always pretty easy.

Me: "How do I reach that item?"
Google" "Would you like to use the Reddit app?"

fffff
