Three learning styles Visual - learning by seeing. Auditory - learning by listening. Kinaesthetic - learning by doing.

There’s just one problem: The concept of individual learning styles – applied universally to the general student population, beyond learners with special needs – appears to be a myth.

The idea of learning styles has been around for more than 50 years. In 1975, German biochemist Frederic Vester introduced the concept in his popular science book Thinking, Learning, Forgetting.
