Think about your previous roles. Discuss how you best learned the responsibilities of those positions and how you retained the information needed to successfully perform your role. Some people learn best by reading instructions, some learn best by watching another employee perform the tasks they are learning, and some learn best by doing the actual task and asking questions along the way. However you best learn, discuss that now with the interviewer.

"I learn best by observing someone else completing a task and then attempting the task myself while having someone available to act as a resource if I have questions or need clarification along the way."

I learn best by carefully observing another employee completing the task and then attempting the task myself while having someone assist me if I have any questions or need clarification along the way. Sometimes, reading the instructions and slowly performing the task myself is really helping me with the learning process, even though I make mistakes.

This is a great start, but adding a specific example of how you learned a specific skill would take your answer up a notch!
