Now readers can improve skills by finding the learning or memorization method which best suits their personal learning style--visual, auditory, tactile, or kinesthetic--and implement this method (or "superlink") to learn material easily and thoroughly. No matter what their level of education, readers can improve performance, retention, and recall, stydy more effectively, and perform better on tests by using the superlink method.Charts.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent, It works.,
This review is from: How to Learn Anything Quickly: An Accelerated Program for Rapid Learning (Paperback)
This is the book we should all have been exposed to early in our school years. It would have made our respective remainder of our academic career much more successful and fun. The two tests within the book are excellent and accurate. It measures you on two axis, the first one whether you are quantitative oriented (left brain), or more creative/artistic oriented (right brain). The other axis measures what is your main informational sensory channel (visual, audio, kinesthetic). By combining the results of the two tests, you will know what is the best way for you to absorb information and learn new stuff. I have read tons of books on this subject. This is the clearest.

How to .... anything,
By Kent (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How to Learn Anything Quickly: An Accelerated Program for Rapid Learning (Hardcover)
It kind of seems like you'd have to apply everything in this book just to reading this book if you want to learn anything. The author breaks up accelerated reading into eight superlinks. For example: left-brain visual, right-brain auditory, etc. If you fit into a single category like that perfectly, then this book will really help you. But, like myself, I don't think people are that easily labeled, and having read the book cover to cover, I found very little useful information. In fact, a lot of it just states the obvious. For instance: "Auditory learners should ask for information to be presented in an auditory manner." Well.... duh. See what I mean? However, there is a section on memorization that I found a little insightful. But for the most part, the thing I will remember this book most for is that it specifically tells us that not all people learn alike. That's something all of us need to understand.

Interesting and disappointing at the same time,

This review is from: How to Learn Anything Quickly: An Accelerated Program for Rapid Learning (Paperback)
On the one hand, the various learning styles were interesting. I don't think I would call them learning styles per se, but more general concepts of how one processes information, from meeting people to entering a room for the first time.
As a learning method, the book falls short. The tests lean heavily on 8 specific styles. At the same time, the author acknowledges mixed or integrated styles (combinations of the 8, applied in different ways). Yet after identifying these two styles, the author abandons them for the rest of the book, providing no guidance or suggestions at all for applying an integrated or mixed learning style. You're left on your own to figure it out, which pretty much negates the book's usefulness. In general, it was an interesting read for the concepts and ideas. For practical application, it was disappointing.
