Audile

/ˈɔːdaɪl/ adjective

Definition

Relating to or characteristic of people who learn best through hearing and listening; auditory in nature.

Etymology

From Latin 'audire' (to hear) plus -ile (relating to). A psychological term developed in the early 20th century to describe a learning style based on auditory input.

Kelly Says

Audile learners are the ones who need you to explain something out loud rather than showing them—we're increasingly discovering that learning styles are deeply personal, and auditory processing is just one piece.
