Are you a tactile, visual, or auditorial learner?
When we were kids, we learned everything by doing. As we grow, our brains sometimes change. We take on a different learning style. if you are visual, you learn by seeing. If you are auditorium, you learn by hearing. If you are tactile, you learn by doing.For example, I'm tactile and visual, but the tactile part of me is uncomfortable if my clothes are too tight while I'm studying. When someone tells a story to me, the visual part of me makes a movie in my mind. If you don't know what you are, there are quizzes online.

Assuming they see or hear it, if its something they can do, how can someone know if they've learned something until they actually do it? Is the inclination of learning style indicated by the repetition(I.e #times heard, #times looked at)? Does imagining it/mental imagery without external stimuli fall into the visual learning category? Seems like a different kind of learning to me. If a person does something perfectly every time without knowing how they did it then have they actually learned something? Is that tactile learning? Why doesn't hearing it then visualizing it count as auditory learning? The style of learning I use is situational. 1

Good question. When I said learn, I meant understand. So if you learned it, you would be able to explain how to do it. Tactile learners actually have to DO the worksheet to get it. They can't just look at the paper and get it. I've never heard anything about the learning style being affected by the number of times it was done, heard, or seen. Imagining it is visual because if you are visual, you have to see something to get it. So when you imagine something, your mind is "seeing" it, thus helping it comprehend a story or lesson. Tactile just means that you have to do something to learn, as I mentioned earlier. You also remember what was done rather then what you've seen or heard. For example, to learn how to put together a computer, tactile learners usually want to throw away the directions and do it themselves. Like I said, when you hear it then picture it, your mind is making a picture for you to "see." I looked up situational, and from what I've gathered, does it mean you learn from any of the above? 1
