Scenario

When couples have conflicting learning styles but need to study together

My wife and I are both graduate students and we've noticed we have completely different learning styles — she needs total silence and visual organization, I need background noise and learn by talking things through — but we're trying to study together for our comprehensive exams and it's creating tension in our relationship because neither of us can focus in the other person's optimal environment.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people are discovering that their neurological differences in processing information create practical incompatibilities that affect both their academic success and their relationship.
