The three styles are:

Visual – learning through images, diagrams, or reading
Auditory – learning by listening or discussing
Kinesthetic – learning by hands-on experience or movement

This short activity helps you understand how you naturally prefer to learn - whether that’s through seeing, hearing, or doing.
