Hi, I’m Naomi Prescott, and I’m really glad you’re here.
I built Learning Styles Online for one simple reason: I wanted a study plan that worked in practice, not just in theory. Not the kind that sounds great in a workshop and immediately falls apart on a Tuesday night when you’re tired, behind, and trying to remember what you even read.
If you’ve ever felt like you were “bad at studying” because traditional memorization didn’t stick, I get it. I’ve been there. This site is my attempt to make learning feel less like a personality test you failed and more like a skill set you can build, tweak, and actually live with.
How I got here
I’m a self-taught productivity nerd, and I mean that affectionately. I’m not an educator with a formal title. I’m an independent learner who has spent years testing what helps me focus, remember, and follow through.
I grew up feeling discouraged by rigid classroom expectations. I could do the work, but the way I was expected to do it rarely matched how my brain wanted to process information. I tried to force myself into one “right” method and spent a lot of time thinking the problem was me.
Eventually, I started experimenting instead of blaming myself. I tested time-blocking. I played with visual mapping. I tried the Pomodoro technique in a dozen variations. I kept what worked, tossed what didn’t, and learned something important along the way: there is rarely a one-size-fits-all method. What works best depends on you, your schedule, your energy, and the kind of material you’re learning.
Learning Styles Online is where I share that hands-on process, with routines you can try today.
What this site does
The mission is practical and kind: help you build a customized study plan without burnout.
That means a few things you can expect from me and from this site:
- Practical application first. I focus on what you can do in a real week with real obligations, not an imaginary perfectly organized life.
- Small changes beat big overhauls. I’d rather help you improve your next 25 minutes than design a “perfect system” you never use.
- Self-compassion over perfection. If a strategy works for two weeks and then stops working, you didn’t fail. You gathered data. We adjust.
- Options, not rules. I’ll give you a menu of approaches and help you choose based on your goals and constraints.
A quick note about “learning styles,” since the phrase can mean different things. I’m not interested in putting you in a permanent category and calling it done. I use learning styles as a starting point for noticing patterns in how you take in information, then building flexible skills you can adapt as your subjects and seasons change.
If you want to start exploring, these guides are the heart of the site:
- Learning Styles for finding approaches that match how you take in and remember information.
- Study Skills for planning, focus, note methods, review routines, and test prep.
- Career Skills for learning habits that support work goals and professional growth.
- Learning Activities for Kids for practical ideas that support curiosity and confidence.
My study plan approach
I’m not here to hand you a rigid schedule and tell you to be more disciplined. I’m here to help you design something you can repeat on your messiest days.
When I’m building or rebuilding a study routine, I come back to a few basics:
- Start with the smallest repeatable session. Even 15 to 25 minutes counts. Consistency builds identity.
- Decide what “done” means before you start. For example: “Finish 8 practice problems” beats “Study math.”
- Match the method to the material. Dense reading needs different tools than vocabulary, and both need different tools than problem-solving.
- Plan for recovery. If you miss a day, you need a gentle restart plan, not a guilt spiral.
If you want a structured way to put that into action, I recommend trying a simple, checkable session format once or twice and adjusting from there. You can find one on the site at Build a Study Session You Can Check.
