What is Visual Learning Academy?
Visual Learning Academy provides a fun way to learn, revise, or simply get an overview of a subject. Learn about a topic in 20 minutes or less using videos and mind maps for optimal learning. Supplement your learning with eBooks, audio, and slide presentations.
Need to have a base knowledge of a topic for basic conversation? Want to know more but no time to take long courses?
We present the essence of a topic in short but engaging presentations. You absorb the information in the most efficient way. Each lesson contains powerful nuggets to give you jolts of learning and creativity.
What is your Learning Style?
Visual Spatial learners use pictures, images, and spatial understanding to learn.
Aural learners are good listeners who normally learn best through verbal presentations like lectures and speeches.
Verbal learners prefer using words, both in speech and writing.
Why is Visual Learning Academy perfect for you?
No matter what your learning style is, we use a variety of formats to present the content to meet your needs.
We offer:
· Mind Maps (for you Visual Spatial learners!)
· Video review of Mind Maps, with narration and music (Aural learners love this!)
· Bullet-form presentation slides (Verbal learners who love linear structure, we’ve got you covered!)
· Audio downloads of the courses (again great for Aural learners!)
I found I could understand the material quickly and easily, and could revise and refer to the modules in a variety of formats.

What is a Mind Map?
A mind map is a visual representation of information that includes a central idea surrounded by connected branches of associated topics.. They allow students to build connections between topics and sub-topics. Using colours, images and words, mind mapping encourages students to begin with the central idea then expand outward to more in-depth details.
Benefits of Mind Maps
1. Make it easy to organize ideas and concepts
2. Create better understanding of relationships and connections
3. Provide visual images for better recall of information
4. Create structure for notes and revision
5. Help students to brainstorm and explore related ideas
Even if you think you are not a visual learner or have studied in a different format in the past, try the free chapters to see if this suits your learning style. The modules are presented in a unique and fun way and you will find this an enjoyable, new experience. You will also have access to the audio version of the lessons, eBooks and presentation slides of the module. Yu can use these in any combination to best suit your learning preferences.

Combine music and study
Studies show that classical music is played in the background put students in a heightened emotional state, making them more receptive to information. We use this in our combination of presentation slides and classical music (we call this Medituition) to further help your learning process.
