Learning Styles

My learning style is tactile which means I learn more about stuff when I use my hands. What my style means to me is the more I use my hands to figure something out about some project or assignment I will learn it faster than most kids or adults. I mean there might be some thing that I can do that others cant. This learning style might help me make school and life better for people and children by making hand-held models of stuff for them to learn about what they want on a certain subject like science. This kind of style makes my learning ability alittle harder because there is not that many things that you can touch and feel to learn more about, since there arn't that much stuff you can feel so its harder to learn.
