Auditory learners grasp ideas by actively listening (and not just hearing!) their teacher. They learn best when they can concentrate on the speaker and process the information.

At home, providing verbal instruction can be very useful. Let's say that your child simply doesn't get a particular academic concept - can you find audio tapes or videos that present the knowledge in a compelling format? Can you use the Internet to research facts and information about the topic, and then sit down and read it through with your child? Packaging the knowledge in an auditory form might prove to be quite helpful to learning the entire concept.
