The interviewer is asking this question to determine how you best learn the duties of a new position or task. Some individuals learn best by reading, some learn by observing, some are more hands-on and learn by actually doing the task that they are trying to learn. Think about how you went about learning in your previous positions and talk about that in detail to give the interviewer an idea of what learning techniques work best for you.

"In my previous position, I learned the tasks of my role by observing and taking notes. Seeing someone who is familiar with the task that I am learning while providing a demonstration while I take notes, helps me to see how the task should be completed and what the outcome should look like."
