Information enters our body through our sensory organs. These receptors are divided by the mechanical receptors: tactile, auditive, and muscle. The photographic like our vision. The thermic receptors that help us perceive cold and hot and the chemical receptors. You are more likely to remember and learn new concepts based on your way of perceiving the world. Some people have a hard time following instructions over the phone, and some others are more likely to remember if they hear that information. Are you a visual learner, kinesthetic, or auditive? You will usually use all of them, depending on the situation, but one or two are preferred.
