Nope can't visualize it. And if you spell a word to me verbally I usually have to write it down. (Except for short well known words) For example if my kids while reading a book ask me 'Mom what is 'f' 'l' 'a' 'c' 'c' 'i' 'd', I have to write it down or see it in print.

I can remember patterns and pictures well. I can remember a map in my head and give directions off it even if I'm new to an area.
