In high school, I got a D in algebra. This was astonishing considering I aced geometry. Chemistry? Barely passed. Physics? You better believe I was the star student.

Approximately 65 percent of the population are visual learners, which means they respond most to what they see as opposed to what they hear or touch. Some of them, like me, respond more to pictures and photographic representations of information than written words.
