I know someone who claims to be a visual learner because he prefers video tutorials. But I say to him: no, I like pictures too, but what I can’t stand about videos is the person talking. I want to be able to scan things at my own (varying) pace, my mind wanders when listening to a single voice talk about something. I struggled with university lectures because of this. But I’ve learnt a lot from podcasts and have been an avid listener since ~2005 but only for ones where it’s a conversation between at least 2 people. I’ve tried and failed audiobooks due to it just being a single narration.
