Oral learners are people all over the globe whose mental processes are primarily influenced by spoken rather than textual forms of communication. They therefore learn primarily or exclusively by speech, song, etc.

Oral communicators also learn information by spoken rather than textual means. Some do so out of necessity because they cannot read or write with understanding, but others simply prefer non-print forms of communication.
