One way you can do that is by going to an article page (not special pages or talk pages) and then click the new page button, instead. When you click the new page and typed the title, you are then in VisualEditor, instead. One way to think of this is Like vs. Like.

If you are in a namespace where the page can be edited via VisualEditor (e.g. userpage, main pages), then when you click the new page button and typed the title on the new page, you'll ended up editing the new page in Visual.

If you are in a namespace that doesn't support editing via VisualEditor (e.g. talk pages, templates, MediaWiki pages, special pages), then when you click the new page button (the next page also gives you the option to decide between a standard page layout or a blank page), you'll ended up in Classic.
