I was just reading something about how people have different ways of taking in information, and it can be a challenge trying to speak to someone that has a different method. For example people that learn by taking notes are generally bothered when they speak to someone that isn't taking notes, whereas people that learn by listening carefully are bothered when the people they speak to are constantly taking notes.
It's something I'll try to remember next time I'm in a meeting.

Auditory learners learn through listening (lectures, discussions, tapes, etc.). Tactile/kinesthetic learners learn through experience -- moving, touching, and doing (active exploration of the world; science projects; experiments, etc.).

In particular, visual is opposed to verbal in this model, whether it comes from reading or hearing. This model seems to be more concerned on how the brain organizes the sensory input. VARK is more about cataloguing the types of sensory input.
