Lowell, MA I LEARN MUCH BETTER BY ACTUALLY DOING. I CAN PICK IT UP QUICKLY BUT IF FOR SOME REASON I CANNOT ACTUALLY DO IT I ALSO LEARN BY WATCHING BUT DO NOT LEARN AS FAST Marci, 55
OH Doing. Karen, 20
Marshelltown/Ames, IA I suppose I learn bet by doing, however, I have to listen beforehand, so I'll have a vague idea of what I am doing. Ernest, 29
Washington, DC Mainly by doing. Most of the things I've been learning lately haven't been in situations where I can watch someone else and I don't think listening to someone is very helpful if you're not familiar with what they're talking about. Alias Irrelevante
Doing. And as a side question, when you read the word "doing" do you occasionally read it as a rhyme for "boing?"

I would have to be a doer, since I can't sit still very well.

Bowie, MD
I learn best by reading first, then following written directions to do it. After that, if I have a problem, watching a demo makes sense.

West Linn, OR
I don't really know. If I listen and watch a lot, then I seem to do it better, but I still sometimes need practice. So I guess it's doing, really.

Montreal, Quebec CANADA
A combination of all three would probably work best.
Shanna, 15
Cardiff ENGLAND
I would have to say that i am all three. It all depends on what I am learning. I don't have a certain style of learning overall.

I learn best by doing -- otherwise called "hands-on" training. :)
Melodi, 19
Hlliard, OH
doing. i am VERY hands-on.

I learn best by watching and then doing.
Mandy, 24
All three.
Jeremy, 13
Highlands Ranch, CO
I learn most by reading which I guess is a form of watching. However doing puts me into a sort of zen space where everything is instintually done and I have no problem learning. Listening, is the hardest for me I think since it requires so much energy to sort out the sounds and make sense of them at times.

Somerville, MA
Definately watching, and it always helps to do right after.
Megan, 24
Chicago, IL
I really don't know. I guess a little bit of each.
Amy, 23
New Orleans, LA
Doing first, but if I am watching closely and can then do on my own that works well too. Just plain 'ol listening is not my thing unless I am REALLY interested...not counting conversations with people, I'm talking seminars and meetings!!
Tracy, 24
Ocean City, NJ
by doing. . .no doubt. .

For me, it is a combo of listening and doing. I learn better by doing it myself and working out the snags then watching someone else and trying to imitate.
Maggie, 20
Sandwich, IL
I learn best by doing, after I watch and listen.
Tina, 31
Medford, MA
Definitely by doing. I was in a training class for work last week, and didn't understand a thing the teacher was talking about until I actually did the steps on the computer. It all made sense after that.
Nicole
Elk Grove, CA
Yes. I learn best when all three: watching, listening and doing take place.
Laura, 35
Lowell, MA
Watching... I need someone to set an example.
Karen2, 14
Boston, MA
Lowell, MA Watching and doing, am I allowed to have two of them? If not, I learn best by doing. Nikki, 27
Kirkham ENGLAND I like to watch someone do it and then I have to do it or i'll never learn the task. Janet, 42
